What a journey to make in the heat!
You had a liitle bit longer to travel than me. I live just outside Stockholm.
But Sweden is a loooooong country.

I was in Roskilde just the last day - only for Arctic Monkeys (daughter's wish) and Roger Waters. But the long drive sure was worth it.

I'm sorry but one lousy UK date is just not good enough and its Hyde park which is one of the shittest venues in the uK, Saw QOTSA, Motorhead and Foo's there a couple of weeks ago and the sound quality was bloody awful. The cant use enough volume to get over the swirly wind effect because her majesty gets narky apparently. So one minute it felt like the drums on "overkill" would indeed kill me with volume, the next, it sounded like someone had switch the whole thing off.

C'mon Rog, whay no RAH or Earls Court :roll:

Warning

There are many shows in a few months. Waters needs to take care his voice. He's got two options: making few shows, or use the irritable playback.
He's gotta be with a good voice to record his album, next year! :)

Well, the American leg of the tour opens tomorrow. Here's hoping he's cut out the lip-syncing (or the songs that need it) and maybe even ADDED something.

Im going this saturday! ill be sure to report any changes in the setlist and what he says about syd (if he says anything). unfortunatly i will be pretty far away from the stage so I wont be able to tell about lipsynching/miming.

Here's hoping too, that London show set me back a fair bit (though it was worth every penny)

:shock:
I' ve seen his show on 14 July Magny-Cours, France (Centenary of the French Formula 1 Grand Prix) .
It was correct but i think he could have done more. It was outside ont the F1 circuit. I've prefered the PF concert in 1994 at Chantilly Castle near Paris. It was really great...
At Magny Cours i didn't feel quadriphony sound... may be i become difficult to satisfy !
