I love the The Wall in Berlin nice show as visials and stuff but the music is crap, Rick DiFonzon is the worst guitarist I've ever seen.

I will soon cover more on that in my October article for NPF.

The Wall Live In Berlin is simply a bad joke of what Pink Floyd played it back in 1980-81. It's really that bad, I can't believe how badly the guests destroyed some of the best songs of the album (Hey You, Comfortably Numb, etc).

Also this time The Wall show was over the top, really. Nobody needed that HUGE Wall and that giant teacher, etc, etc

Pink Floyd did it so much better than Roger and Friends

Is it me or did they not get all the bricks in at the top of the wall in time by the end of the 1st half?

And yeah I'd love a DVD of the performance with the glitches...what song was it where the sound died and the backing track kept going?

What was the deal with Sinead being a bitch during it again? I remember hearing something like that back then....

When I watched it on TV ....altho It was a long time ago I remember thinking ...... I cna't believe this is happening ...the end of the Berlin wall...It wasn't till I heard it for the second time that I thought some of the performances were weak..... But....It was all about the occasion...IMO

Moom, I'm curious to know why you think this statement applies to Waters. The way I understand the statement is as this:

I hate Bryan Adams, but he brought some great vocals.

*sheesh*
