Glad to hear it went well OP. How many songs did ya do? I've been a Floyd fan for years. Sad thing about Rich Wright. Wasn't it just about 2 years ago when Sid Barrett died?

One concert I WISH I had made it to. That'd be one to tell the grandkids about, I tell ya. I heard back years ago they played in Atlanta (I believe) Are Gilmore and Waters still playing together any? Their concerts here in the states were few and far between, unfortunately.

SPM

I had the privelage to see Pink Floyd live I've also seen Gilmour and Waters Solo shows a few times
Gilmour and waters have only played once since the band split up and that was the Live 8 concert (which I didn't get to)
 
You sir, are a very lucky man...

I think it was the Live8 show that was aired on VH-1 here, and naturally, I had to record it. It was something to see, no doubt.
