Default Anybody else go to "The Wall" Roger Waters/Pink Floyd concert last night

This was my 3rd time to go since 1998 and the only time to actually see The Wall being built then tore down and must say it was the Sickest concert I've been too.im currently working a mini vid to show my buddies that couldn't make the sold out show in the Toyota Center. Stay tuned for vids

I would have liked to have gone to that concert. Does he sing all of the songs? How does he do with the David Gilmour vocal parts?

I know Waters wrote most of the songs, but his voice just isn't up to par. He's definitely an amazingly talented legend though. I need to better keep up with upcomming conerts. I've missed a few over the years I regret.

Great show! Maybe best I've ever seen...

Roger only sings his parts, hires out the David Gilmour guitar & vocal parts. I saw him in SA 6-7 years ago & counted 6 different guitarists on stage to do Gilmour's layered parts of some songs. This was my 1st time to see The Wall, but he did not have as many guitar parts to cover for Gilmour on this one.
I'm much more of a Gilmour fan than Waters, but Roger is quite the entertainer!

For being in his late 60's the dude killed it.My hat goes off to go 3 straight hours at that age.Another cool part was after touring in Asia and South America.Houston was the first stop back in the states.
