Riotous rendition of the Pink Floyd’s hit, Money from Dark Side of the Moon:
Remember a Day Tribute to Richard Wright
David Gilmour plays Remember a Day flawlessly in this tribute to Richard Wright:
Pink Floyd Live in Vancouver 1994
I saw Pink Floyd live in Vancouver, BC in the Spring of 1994, as I recall (may have been different year). The band consisted of David, Nick, and Richard, plus an entourage of other performers. After an agonizing wait for the show to start, the lights were dimmed and the sound of a trickling stream faded into the atmosphere. The crowd went absolutely nuts. Rising behind the trickling sound were the echoing robotic voices heard at the beginning of Astronomy Domine. By the time we realized what was happening, Pink Floyd just started slamming it out:
Lime and limpid green, a second scene
A fight between the blue you once knew.
Floating down, the sound resounds
Around the icy waters underground.
The rhythm and beats were so loud, heavy and devastatingly mind-blowing that we thought we might explode. It was so powerful. As that song came to its close, we were completely blown away. That was worth the price of admission to get a sense of what it must have been like way, way back in the days. Even without Roger Waters there, Pink Floyd put on a great show. The first song was by far the highlight of the event, at least for us, but everything else was incredible as well.
