Wife’s lyrics are so twee in comparison to Waters imo

To be fair, in and of itself, more twee than Waters could easily be viewed as an improvement.

FOS was great, Sorrow, too....the one which flopped (for me...again!) was GGITS. It was rubbish in Pompeii and rubbish last night. He's trying to change it, in some way, but it simply doesn't work.
That said, I very much enjoyed the show as a whole and his voice was pretty damned good.

Lights dimmed, candles on, all sitting around the piano, four girls singing, yep I get your point.

Did I see Romany headbanging and playing air guitar in the finale of Comfortably Numb.

I videoed the solo but unfortunately it says it’s too large to upload

Yeah, it just didn't work for me. What did you think of the show, overall?

Overall I enjoyed the show.

At times his voice was showing his age, but this is to be expected. He should be applauded for not lip synching.

I know it's never going to happen, but could he have been brave and just played tracks from all his solo albums and dropped the Pink Floyd tracks.

Glad I wasn't in the lower rows of the of the raised stalls, as I assume the computer desks etc would have blocked your view to some degree given the lack of stage height.

I assume the usual bluray and live album will be released after the tour has concluded.

Pleased that I listened to the new album a few times since its release so was familiar with the tracks played live.
