Wall Live in Berlin and 1980s Wall Concerts
I was just wondering if there were any real differences between the Wall Shows of the 80s and the Wall in Berlin? Apart from the fact most of Pink Floyd weren't playing it.

Also, the stage was significantly larger (with the Pig being the size of a large blimp). Radio KAOS' closing track "The Tide Is Turning (After Live Aid)" was mysteriously wedged between The Trial and Outside The Wall. Like the studio album, Roger sang all of Run Like Hell himself (which was very difficult and a really amazing feat, even without considering his age).
I'm pretty sure there was another circular Mr. Screen behind the Wall (visible during TTIT(ALA)) and instead of his "rocker cape" in RLH Roger chose to wear an oversized dictator/military uniform with huge glasses, a moustache, and some backup nazi-dancers.

Re: Wall Live in Berlin and 1980s Wall Concerts
Yeah, the 1980 Wall was incredible, the Berlin gig was a very bad joke. Sorry, couldn't help myself. All these years later I still haven't been able to reconcile Cindy Lauper, Bryan Adams, Scorpions etc singing these songs. What a travesty.Keith Jordan wrote:I was just wondering if there were any real differences between the Wall Shows of the 80s and the Wall in Berlin?

well if you actually like the music on the cd, go and get the dvd... sound is mixed better and the visuals are stunning (just ignore the Scorpions and Cindy , but the wall itself is awesome)Tenniru wrote:Maybe I only like it because I've only heard the album. To me, it feels very nicely-done and well-performed. I'm afraid of getting the DVD just because actually seeing them might spoil it all for me.

It has had alot of post production work on it - on the night you could hardley hear the music at some points.Tenniru wrote:Maybe I only like it because I've only heard the album.
