Dark Side of the Moon
An otherwise excellent concert was marred by people smoking illicit drugs, people standing up to sing along to the songs and inappropriate, petty, mean, political comments about Dubya and Toni Blair. When I go to a rock concert I expect none of the above. I must say it was a shock to learn that Waters had such a potty mouth.
In addition there was a cartoon segment about a young Waters who finds the most hideous and deformed family in Lebanon. The lyrics for the segment were up on the screen possibly an invitation for peeps to sing along. We will refer to this part of the show as the Gay and Senile Side of the Moon.
It is good to note that people these days wave cell phones instead of lighters now. Shine on you crazy nokia.
A clever and amusing trick was to end 'Have a Cigar' exactly the way it does in the recordings.
But the star of the show was no doubt the giant floating remote controlled red-eyed pink pig which appeared to have been vandalized by hippies. I would like to see it ride the Gravy Train to my stomach.

"cell phones instead of lighters"
Very pathetic. Even the lighters were damn stupid. Support matchstick use.
...and the sun is eclipsed by the pig.
You missed the giant astronaut. Loser.
You expected to go for a Roger Waters concert and not see people smoking God's greatest gift to mankind!!! You paranoid loser android... you should have stayed at home and sold your ticket.
Remote control pig!!! Damn in Boston it had a buch of people holding onto it like a balloon.
I too felt like leaving the middle bit of the concert where the cheesy cartoons and some of his solo works started to show up. His solo songs has some real sorry lyrics. I have blanked out the non-Floyd bit of the concert.
