Pink Floyd Bassist Guy Pratt Joins Robert Plant for Charity Concert

Pink Floyd Bassist Guy Pratt, who is also a comedian and Rockonteurs podcaster, has joined a stage of stars for a cancer charity. On Saturday 21st October an event took place at Soho Farmhouse in Oxfordshire called Concert Platform. Guy Pratt has worked with many stars over the years because he is a rather good bassist. But he has now ticked another box on his list having now performed with Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant. Guy wrote an account of his latest achievement on his Facebook page. “Well that was fun. Soo good to be reunited with my old rhythm partner David Palmer and play with Andy Taylor for the first time in 25 years.. AND ROBERT PLANT!!! Who was just amazing and such a lovely chap. I’ve now played Black Dog with Page and Plant. Box tick! And for an amazing cause. The incredible Sir Chris Evans who’s cancer...

Roger Waters Tour Set To Conclude. What Next?

Roger Waters Tour is coming to an end soon in December. After an amazing run of concerts which started in July 2022, This Is Not A Drill Tour is set to conclude on 9th December 2023. The final venue is Estadio Olimpico in Ecuador. The tour was billed Roger’s “first farewell tour” jokingly referring to the trend of older artists saying its their last, then doing more! The original tour schedule, for Roger Waters’ seventh solo tour, was supposed to start around the time of Covid. This was postponed. The world went into turmoil. There would be further turmoil during this tour, with controversies being reported in the media. What will 2024 bring? Memoirs, perhaps a REDUX tour given the cost of the two nights at London Palladium, an unlikely extension of the This Is Not A Drill tour? A Tour with Controversy Accusations of Roger Waters Antisemitism There have...

Pink Floyd Tribute Band Concerts

With Pink Floyd very much finished as a live touring band, fans only have Pink Floyd tribute band concerts to seek out and experience. Some fans will have been born after the band had stopped touring so not seen them. Others may have seen Pink Floyd live and in the flesh. Lucky them. You blogger here has seen Roger Waters, Nick Mason and David Gilmour solo concerts many times, but never actually see Pink Floyd live. Who is the best tribute band for Pink Floyd? There are a lot of tribute bands to Pink Floyd all over the world. There should be at least one in every major city or region because everyone should watch! I have seen a few live over the years. They are a lot of fun. My favourite Pink Floyd tribute band has probably been the Australian Pink Floyd. I saw them last at Jodrell Bank...

Roger Waters London Palladium Video – Watch Now

Roger Waters and his 14 strong army of musicians performed Dark Side of the Moon Redux at The London Palladium. It divided opinion in the media and online from fans in the two shows Sunday and Monday. The show was split in two. The first half saw Roger talking at the audience at length about Julian Assange and Donald his pet duck. Crazy stuff. He also talked about his forthcoming memoirs. Title is “I’ll See You On The Dark Side Of The Moon: Memoirs Of A Lanky Prick”. The second half was the Dark Side performance that fans had paid big money to watch. Some VIP packages allowed fans to obtain lots of goodies like posters. Tickets cost eye watering amounts on the primary ticket website. Anyway, part of the evening, this 20 minute video, was played for the audience. The video explains some of the new work that Roger...

Review: Roger Waters Dark Side of the Moon Redux 2023 ★★★★☆

Rating: ★★★★☆ Friday 6th October is the day that Roger Waters releases his much discussed Dark Side of the Moon Redux edition. This is a completely stripped down version of the classic magnum opus Dark Side of the Moon recorded by Pink Floyd, which became one of the best selling albums of all time, propelling Pink Floyd into the stratosphere of fame, success, money and sadly, the beginning of the end for the band. Order limited edition version from Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.com Although Pink Floyd would go on to record Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall and The Final Cut, the Dark Side of the Moon delivered on the band’s goal of becoming a massively successful group. There was nothing really left for them to prove after Dark Side. Given that Dark Side was always going to be hard album to follow for Pink Floyd, it is odd then that Roger chose...

Listen to More Songs from Roger Waters Dark Side of the Moon Redux

The new recording of Dark Side of the Moon by Roger Waters, the Redux version where he has reimagined the album and recorded it rather different to the original, now has two more tracks released and available to listen to on streaming platforms and YouTube below. In addition to Time and Money, you can now listen to the first two tracks from the album Speak to Me and Breathe. However, these have been interwoven with words that were not there before and quite surprising ones! Just listening to Speak to Me, Roger has actually read out the lyrics to Free Four from the Obscured by Clouds album, Pink Floyd’s 7th studio album and the one released immediately before Dark Side of the Moon. Obscured by Clouds was released in June 1972 with Dark Side of the Moon in March 1973. It is as if we have rewound the tape in...
