Hi there Pink Floyd fans!
Roger Waters "The Dark Side Of The Moon" world tour:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dar..._the_Moon_Live
Feb 18 MMRDA Grounds, Mumbai!!!
Hooked on to the Animals album lately. Has three songs which signify three types of people. Pigs - Politicians and generally people with power. Sheeps - Follow the pigs. Dogs - People against the pigs but they are not good either. Was never a big fan of the album. Sheep especially is mindblowing. Aimed at people who live like sheeps, meek, in herds rambling aimlessly, following the orders of pigs. There is a tinge of anti-christianity as well for some reason. Awesome song :clap:
What do you get for pretending the danger's not real
Meek and obedient you follow the leader
..
Have you heard the news?
The dogs are dead!
You better stay home
And do as you're told
Get out of the road if you want to grow old.
Animals - What a superb 'dark' album :notworthy:Quote:

My undoubted favorite is Dogs - Gilmour :notworthy:
paatula ethana changes, ethana twists, "moments" - Brilliant. Especially Gilmour's solos and the shattering climax with Water's vocals and Mason's double drumming (this can be heard best only in the studio version)...
Who was born in a house full of pain
Who was trained not to spit in the fan
Who was told what to do by the man
Who was broken by trained personnel
Who was fitted with collar and chain
Who was given a pat on the back [ typical Waters vocals here. The way he says 'pat on the back' is Ultimate]
Who was breaking away from the pack
Who was only a stranger at home
Who was ground down in the end
Who was found dead on the phone
Who was dragged down by the stone
"Pigs on the wings" is a classic :thumbsup:
Sheep - Love the way it starts and the guitaring throughout... Paatukku paattu typically atypical, adhaan Floyd :smokesmirk:
Have you checked out Roger Water's "In The Flesh" DVD?
"Dogs" wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogs_(song) has this trivia:
How i wish i could listen to this album now.. naasama pora office :evil:Quote:
The main guitar solos are performed on two guitars harmonising, in the original recording both of these were played by David Gilmour and then played over one another.
Halloooooo yaaro ungalai kasta paduthi ukkara vecha madhiri. Avvalavu kustama irundha kelambaradhu !!! :oops: :lol2: :P :yessir:

Been to some sort of a remote concert thingi in which the band (Waters and others) were performing live from London and we were watching it in the USA in a theater. After the *concert* was over people were encouraged to ask questions and it was fun. Btw, In The Flesh DVD is top-class, with extreme close-ups and high quality sound. Extra features is a bit of let down, I was expecting more.Quote:

Last song heard: Burning Brides.
Nerd,
You might have already read about it. Rick Wright is no more
started exploring pink floyd and led zeppelin(basically on curiosity created by hubbers)...earlier listened to few of their famous hits like "stairway to heaven"
listening to the recommendations of orkutians and hubbers..
