They're doing DSOTM in it's entirety every night. His son is playing with him too, pretty cool.

That would be the Yang to my Yin of seeing Pink Floyd (sans Waters) at Yankee Stadium in '94. Pink Floyd did much of DSotM that evening. |

I think even Gilmour would buy a ticket if they were doing Meddle and Animals....well, maybe not, ho ho ho.

I don't think I would let myself live it down if I missed that. I've got to find a was to get a ride to a venue 5 hours away, and the like 80 bucks that its gonna cost for tickets...

Gilmour did go to all that trouble to sing it and all.
sorry for the sarcasm, but come on, any record between the Barrett period and the Gilmour period--which pretty much includes all the records that defined Pink Floyd as we know it, Waters has every right to play in its entirety (the question is, what right does Gilmour, Mason, and Wright have to play any tunes from that period?).
Unfortunately, for the three "sidemen", nobody really wants to hear A Momentary Lapse of Reason or Division Bell played in its entirety. I guess losing your songwriter does cause the music's quality to deteriorate -- never would have guess that one.
bass players should know better. |

Anything after Water's absence just isn't the same for me. I hated Divsion Bell. It sounded nothing like Pink Floyd. Reminded me more of Kenny G.
But Water's is the credit behind most of PF's writing. From the Wall, to Dark Side, to Animals, Wish You Where Here. Water's had the biggest effect on that music. Yeah, it had to do with the whole band clicking during the writing process, but Water's was the driving force. HE CAN PLAY WHATEVER HE DAMN WELL WANTS TO!!!! 
And yeah, Gilmour did do alot of those vocals, but would it really alter the feel of the album THAT much for Water's to do the vocals?

Who ever is playing lead guitar on the red Strat (I can't recal his name) does a great job of his guitar work, and I almost prefer his tone, which suprised even me.
