If you haven't seen them, be sure to check out the DVD version of Pulse, which is Pink Floyd (w/o Waters), including the performance of Dark Side of the Moon, and David Gilmour's "Remember that Night" which is his Royal Albert Hall concert from the "On an Island" tour. Both are really amazing performances. Frankly, I don't miss Roger a bit. While Roger may have been the lyrical driver for PF, I've always thought that the musical drivers were David and Richard. And Nick added some humor and terrific drums and percussion as well.

I had great floor seats close to the stage for the ‘Animals” tour concert at Philly’s Spectrum back around 1977. It was one of the most amazing shows I ever saw. ‘Animals’ itself wasn’t impressive, but they did one side of the ‘Wish You Were Here’ LP and then one side of the ‘Dark Side’ LP. That’s the stuff I went for.

But the floating stuffed furniture and animals were over the top. That concert brought a smile to my face.

One thing I’ll always regret was not going down to Pittsburgh with my roommates to see Floyd do the ‘Dark Side of the Moon’ concert in ‘73. When PF did the “Breathe in the air” refrain, they rolled open the roof of the Igloo (or Civic Center or whatever the name of the venue was). My roommates said it was a beautiful, starry night up there once all the pot smoke dissapated.

Anyways, I have every Pink Floyd album and they’ve always been one of my favorite bands. (Even had Sid Barrett’s ‘Madcap Laughs’ but I traded it away to somebody thirty-plus years ago. It stunk anyway.)

I also rememeber taking a date to see a Pink Floyd movie at a theater. It was called ‘Live at Pompeii’ and at the end of the film it showed Pink Floyd in the studio working on ‘Dark Side of the Moon’.
