Well, at least it's more interesting and evocative than his previous solo album covers

Why is the font for "David Gilmour" so similar to the font for "Roger Waters" on Ca Ira

Why must David insist on copying Roger? Does David not have any original ideas of his own? :wink: :lol:

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT????? THE DOGS OF WAR AND ONE SLIP WERE AMAZING CONCEPT SONGS.
THE DOGS OF WAR WAS ABOUT HIS DOG THAT DIED IN THE FALKLANDS WAR, AND ONE SLIP WAS ABOUT WHEN HE ATE 1000 BANANAS IN BED, WOKE UP THE NEXT MORNING AND SLIPPED ON THE PEELS.
aLL THOSE CRAZY NOISES IN THE BEGINNING OF ONE SLIP WERE HIS ALARM CLOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

YOU'RE SUCH A GILMOUR HATER RPITY
YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE HIS MUSICAL TALENT AND FOOD EATING CAPACITY ARE FAR SUPERIOR TO YOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

You two are like a blast from the past...

"David Gilmour" font doesent have anything similar with "Roger Waters" font.
Roger Waters font looks more like The Wall font.
