@@johnnyjohnny2650 you're saying you'd rather sit in your home and listen to the normal version with some janky ass earphones on than being here experiencing this lol...?
This concert was performed 28 years ago in 1994 (not 2019, which was the remastered date). Their 1994 light show looks like something that would be futuristic by today’s standards.
I saw this tour at the Silverdome in Michigan. They played the entire album they had just released, then every song from Dark Side of the Moon, and almost every song from the Wall, and every other song they were remotely known for. Like 4 hours of just them it was 9ne of the most amaz8ngvth8ngs I ever saw. Tied with seeing Thriller tour at the Silverdome in the 80s as a kid for best concert I went to. So amazing.
@@AndICanTalk2 I think the only songs they played from the wall was Comfortably Numb, Run like hell, Young Lust and Another brick in the Wall. Those were the songs on that album that David Gilmour had the most input into and he wouldn't play any of the songs that Rodger Waters solely wrote.
@Neil Lenet odd, I remember hearing a number of them at the performance I was at, but it was a long time ago. Also that was the tour Roger Waters joined them, so I thought I remember them playing more. Either way fantastic band.
The shows are extraordinary, I saw them in Manchester in 1988 and 2 of the Earls Court shows, I'd put Floyd and Rush at the top for stage and light shows.
This was the encore. Comfortably Numb was the closing number. When you see comfortably numb you wonder what could they possibly do for an encore? Then they smack you with this. Amazing!
They put on Amazing concerts. You would not beleive how big these shows were. I saw both at yankee stadium in 94. Took a Limo to the show. Then stayed on the Hilton. In 6th Avenue of the America's.. we were polluted. Lol 😆
I just want to say Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. That’s the 2 guys the name came from. Look them up and react to their music. They are the inspiration that started the bands name.
When I saw them, there was a rocket up in the back of the arena up in the rafters. At the end, the rocket launched and went through a screen on the stage, the explosion. Live, you don't watch Pink Floyd, you experience them. That paper or cardboard rocket looked so real...
Wow wow wow floyd at their most electrifying what a fabulous concert in the day the lyrics the music the lights and after all that to try and blow up the building what more do you want floyd deliver every time incredible love your reaction more please
Nothing comes close. I was at this extravaganza at earls court,and its by some distance,the best i've ever seen. And i've been to hundreds and hundreds.
Pink Floyd isnt just a concert, its an experience. if you havent seen them then if they go on tour again GO...pulse was one of the greatest tours EVER. a lot of bands have good tours but this one seems to blow them all away. a once in a lifetime experience.
Vid is called "Pulse", from the "Division Bell" tour (last major tour they did) of 1994 according to my ticket stub...This song was the last song, the encore.
The greatest live band EVER. I feel immensely privileged to have seen the Pulse Concert (not this recording but another night in the same week) and also The Wall in 1980 at the same venue. The innovation, the sound, the lighting of their concerts have really never been surpassed. Attention to detail was key. For example the venue, Earls Court, acoustics were not that good (too much echo) but the Floyd concerts would hang huge banners from the ceiling (banners with symbols designed to match the concerts themes) to absorb the sound which helped the sound crews hugely to get the balance right.
Check out the Pink Floyd movie The Wall it tells you exactly what this is all about. I've seen this live a few times and it IS an experience like Asia was saying, like a drug experience even without drugs. Loved this reaction!
Yes 👍! I too have experience PF Live !! & it’s the ultimate Experience….. gosh wish I can go back in time to relish this again….. Man I miss you Live Concerts….( bloody Covid mucked it up for now) Thanks Asia & BJ great reaction …..
I've been to hundreds of concerts in my life and Pink Floyd is still the best show ever, by FAR. I saw the same tour in 94 at RFK Stadium in DC. Just phenomenal.
Their Pulse concert was phenomenal! I saw it outdoors in Oakland. Best concert ever and growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area we went to lots of concerts. So cool.
I was there! So wonderful show. Funny story though - a couple months ago i was discussing with aunt the best concerts we had ever seen. I mentioned this show in 94 at Oakland at the same time she said it was her favorite, too. Neither of us had any idea the other had been there. We were both shocked - "I WAS THERE!"
I was also at this concert at Oakland Colosseum. BEST CONCERT EVER! Those lasers and lights hitting the fog that rolled in over the stadium half way through was intense!
This is one of my favorite concerts. Pulse was recorded in 1994 (but remastered in 2019). Amazing what they could do with the light show back then. Pink Floyd was known for its spectacular laser light shows, in addition to its amazing musicianship. For a future live concert reaction, I suggest the song 'Sorrow' from this same show (Pink Floyd Pulse tour). Also, Pink Floyd as a band is retired and no longer performs, but I did see the lead guitarist/singer (David Gilmour) perform a solo tour in 2016, and he did a lot of classic Pink Floyd songs. Original bass player and songwriter Roger Waters also tours solo, as does drummer Nick Mason as 'Saucerful of Secrets').
I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show in N.Y. 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap froged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION… I have seen Pink Floyd 4 times. Nick Mason’s drumming is incredible and matches Gilmour’s guitar emotions while Richard Wright takes us on a Magic Carpet Ride of tones that form the foundation of it all.
The delicate sounds of thunder concert was my favourite… dogs of war was a good one and obviously the wall is good on headphones 🎧 and a smoke… listen at the start you’ll hear. Where we came in. And at the end you hear… isn’t this . Like a never ending loop
fun fact: Guy Pratt would change the "send you back to London in a cardboard box" line throughout the tour, to whichever city they were playing in. So if for example they were playing in Oslo, Norway, he would sing "send you back to Oslo in a cardboard box". Not super interesting I guess, but there you go :p
What year was that? They said 2019. David Gilmore must be 70. Looks and sounds phenomenal. Too bad Roger Waters wasn't there. But he's looking and sounding good himself.
@@rbmtn4879 Nah,this was from the 1994 Division Bell tour. Just this particular video was uploaded in 2019. This was actually their last tour. I saw them several times on this one and the previous Momentary Lapse of Reason tour.
@@rbmtn4879 NP. Full disclosure,I was never much of a fan of The Wall album. But,the live versions of "Comfortably Numb","Hey You" and "Run Like Hell" that they played on this tour were dynamite. Saw them twice in Philly in June of '94 and 2 more times a month later in DC. My crew and I were blasted on some mighty potent mushrooms for the DC shows,haha.
Thanks for the reaction, I was lucky to see Pink Floyd in the 80’s & still have the concert ticket stub as a souvenir. David Gilmour is a guitar God, Pink Floyd music will continue to live on
First of all, as a guitar player with 60 years experience, I never understood how David Gilmore played that introduction! 😜 Second, call me nuts, but I always thought that friggin intro sounded like a UFO coming down through the dimensions and settling in Earth, at the point where the song becomes more melodic. With deep gratitude to you guys for everything you uploaded on this night, you brightened up a kind of sorry weekend. 👼☮️😁🌹
I can't remember exactly how it works, but it's the same sound, the same set up, that The Edge (of U2) has claimed he invented. Something to do with feeding it back through the same amp, sorry, I'm not a guitarist so I can't be more specific! If you can find it, Bill Bailey, who is a UK comedian and musician does a piece on it, although he is rinsing The Edge (basically, it's a setting that can make any tune sound amazing, the playing underneath the effect does not have to be great, if that makes any sense?) and Bill doesn't mention DG at all, it is, I am sure, the same effect. That was a long ramble!
Nice assessment, you two- well said, well done. I'm a Floyd Freak since about 1966 (a local DJ smuggled a taped show with Barrett out of England back to Canada for our late night FM jollies). One thing though: this was Pulse, Earls Court, 1994... not 2019... that's when they only did the remastering. Peace from Canada. btw you were talking about maybe Floyd's best lines ever: If you're taking your girlfriend out tonight You better park the car well out of sight. 'Cause if they catch you in the backseat trying to pick her locks. They're gonna send you back to London in a cardboard box. (as sung live; on the record it is "back to Mother in a cardboard box.")
To see Pink Floyd live in concert is mind blowing to say the least ! When the show's over and the lights come up you're left dazed ! You need at least 15 minutes to get your bearings ! Last time I saw them they played for 3 hours nonstop , And my seats were about 25' from the stage !
Pink Floyd's Division Bell tour was their last. I took my wife who was pregnant with my oldest son to this show at the Oakland Coluseum in spring of 94. Pigs flying on the sides of the stage. The light show was epic, especially for the 90's. I am so glad to have experienced this live with my own two eyes and my soul. I can tell you that my son felt this show.
This concert is from 1994. Original bassist Roger Waters had left the band many years prior to that. Pink Floyd hasn't toured since then, and keyboardist Rick Wright passed away in 2008. Nowadays, the closest thing to experiencing their music IMHO is tribute band Brit Floyd - have seen them 3 times and going a 4th this summer - highly recommend. BJ and Asia - they are scheduled to play in Grand Prairie in June, check out their website for more info, I believe you would absolutely be blown away.
This is still to this day the best concert Ive ever seen. Seen these guys twice as a band. Roger, Nick, and David over a dozen times solo. Echoes from Live at Gdansk, was amazing. Marc Brickman the production and lighting designer is the absolute best. Unfortunately there will likely never be anything like this again.
Thank you for your reaction. I watch you guys a lot and, your reactions are both thoughtfull and entertaining . I'm 75 and the music of Pink Floyd has been the constant most of my adult life. I enjoy your video as you delve into the phenomena that is Pink Floyd. The emotional Guitar work by David Gilmour is unmatched. The entire band and back up singers are great, and how they blend together is magical. I listen to Pink Floyd every day. Check out "High Hopes",, It has a great message about the nostalgia of growing older, and Gilmour plays an acoustic guitar and lap steel guitar. Incredible!
Probably one of the most intelligent and progressive bands to ever come out of the UK. Dave Gilmour is a guitar god. You want to see them sing “echoes live at Pompeii 1972 ( watch the video) it’s an experience
This is 1994. Pink Floyd has not toured since then, though members have toured separately. They have long since disbanded. Check out 'Comfortably Numb' Pulse live. You will be awed.
This concert was October 1994 at Earl's Court London, unbelievably 28 years ago. This remastered version was put out in 2019. Still the best concert EVER, ANYWHERE, by ANYBODY
This show was one of many exactly like it as part of the world-wide "Division Bell" tour - the last tour Pink Floyd played. Fortunately, I caught one of them - it was as spectacular as the youtube videos! This song - "Time" - was the second and final encore song, played after "Hey You".
Asia and BJ, you should get online and search up-coming concerts that will be performed in your city this summer, pick a band, and set a date, and GO ! These old classic bands are getting older ( approaching their 70's) and dying, soon to be gone forever. Go experience a real Live concert setting and make a video of it.
i say that often how lucky we are to live when these people lived. it must be what it was like to see Mozart perform live for those who lived in his time here is a thought the number of people who DIDNT live to hear this music is uncountable and the number of people who will be born after you can no longer hear it, is also uncountable how lucky we few are not to be in either group eh?
Asia Did you notice backup vocalists were swaying to this song? Every concert that Pink Floyd has at each show; they have vocalists with them on tour or have local vocalists.
I was about 10 rows from the stage for the Pulse concert. I also saw the Division Bell concert twice and Roger Walters' solo concerts 3 times. By far the best concerts I've seen, even though they were with my ex.
The Division Bell concert was Pulse. There was not 2. It is only called Pulse now because it was the name of the live album of the Division Bell tour. So I think you're imagining an extra concert. Saw the Division Bell tour in Dallas at the now gone Texas Stadium in 1994. It was one of those life changing events that I can't believe i was there for!!!!
@@jdlimages You are right, it was Momentary Lapse of Reason, when they were newly reunited and played in Toronto in the fall of 1987 and came back around again in the spring of 1988.
You never will see a better live performance than Pink Floyd in concert. Absolute perfection in sound, lighting and musicianship. I was lucky enough to see them in Sydney Australia….in the late 80’s and was blown away completely. Never seen anything come close since and I have seen plenty.
See, people used to drop a little LSD before going to a Floyd concert (I say "used to"....ok) and the whole thing was an experience like no other. Their concerts and light shows were so infamous that even today there are laser light shows dedicated to people going to an arena like this where they will play Floyd music sync'd with the lights/lasers and those are also really cool...even without the band being there! :) Ahh....memories. And yes, still one of the best concerts (Pulse) I've ever seen.
Pulse tour was 1995. Seen them in Sydney twice. Absolutely epic. Best concert of my life to this day. Video gives no justice. Light and sound better than Coachella.
I've been lucky enough to see Pink Floyd live, its expensive, but its one of those gigs that's worth every penny, awesome. Its worth it for the light show Pulse is just brilliant, you need to see more!
I met David Gilmour in 1984 back stage at a concert in Hollywood Calif. He gave me a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible. The Red Fender Stratocaster he used for this concert in the Guitar Collector World is ....PRICELESS
I love to watch people that haven’t seen live Pink Floyd concerts. They stare at the performance like UFOs are landing. Like total astonishment… There was a time when there were large concerts that brought all sorts of people together. No matter the race, creed, or whatever, everyone was just getting together, enjoying the performance. We need that again. Music should bring folks together. Great video guys!
"pulse 1994": 14 day's in a row sold out. 200 ton stage, 200,000 watts of power. 128 wireless speakers and a few works. saw Floyd 7 times. last time Pink Floyd except reunion at Live Aide. Same song with Dave at Pompeii . Dave the only person to perform in the Amphitheatre at Pompeii since 79 AD. ( 1972 & 2016 )
This was a fantastic Encore song. The final song of the Pulse concert was "Comfortably Numb", a totally awesome performance with an outstanding guitar solo by Gilmore. It is one of the best guitar solos of all time and an awesome light show. BJ would love it. You guys should definitely react to it. I saw the Pulse concert back in 1994. Absolutely the best concert of anyone else'sI have seen. It's permanently etched in my memory till I die.
He has a delay pedal on his guitar. It’s an effect that takes each sound from the guitar and repeats it at certain intervals, you can adjust it. So a single note played will go like this: “dum dum dum dum dum dum . . . “ and fade out. If you play deadened, percussive notes on your guitar it creates the kind of sounds he was making.
I said exactly the same thing to myself when I watched this. Good old delay pedal. Always loved some of the interesting things you can create with one of those.
A Pink Floyd concert is not just an aural experience, it's a visual experience. If you haven't done it already, do The Great Gig In The Sky from the same Pulse concert.
"Run Like Hell"haha. "Raising Hell" was an iconic album by Run-DMC. This performance is actually from 1994,on Floyd's "Division Bell" tour,the last tour of their career. I caught 2 of the 3 Philly shows (6/2 and 6/3) and both of the Washington DC shows (7/9 and 7/10). For sure a top-10 concert experience for me and I've seen most anyone who mattered from about 79-2008-ish. Have scaled it way back since. One feature of this tour was that they played the entire "Dark Side of The Moon" album each show. The lighting and effects were state of the art and still hold up,big time,all these years later. I'm pretty sure at the time it ended this was the highest grossing tour ever. It's been passed since,of course.
It was asked how he did those sounds so I will explain, even though it has been a year since this video. There is a signal booster, a flanger and a compressor to note but delay effects are what you are interested in the most. He has two delay boxes that delay the sound so he is playing the notes slightly before you hear them. The songs main part starts out with that rolling, chugging picking that you hear underlying throughout the song. In between that you hear little embellishments. The delay makes things sound more fluid in between the two. At the very start, he is making that chick chick sound by muting the strings. He is laying his hand across the strings to mute them at the bridge of the guitar. He also scrapes the pick down the string for that other effect.
You did Comfortably Numb, which was the song right before this at this concert (it was 1994). I saw this tour and there is no experience in life like it.
Ha ha great reaction guys, there will never ever be another Pink Floyd once they are gone that's it. Who writes music like this anymore? I'm so glad that I had the chance to see them live in Sydney in 1988, the best live band I've ever seen.

Anything from the Pulse concert will knock your socks off. Such a great concert. David Gilmour is the best guitarist ever!!!❤️❤️
Original album recordings always sound better to me, especially if you're hearing it for the first time, but each to their own.
Seen then in 1980, 1988 and this in 1994. THIS was by far the best concert of those.
Everyone raves about Pulse, but I prefer Delicate Sound Of Thunder. Definately the best version of The Big Gig In The Sky.

I've seen Pink Floyd twice in concert, and both times were a feast for the ears and the eyes. Guitars want David Gilmour for Christmas.
😂 that’s a good one!!! 👍
Awesome!! David Gilmour is definitely on the Mount Rushmore of greatest guitarists.

This was the encore. Comfortably Numb was the closing number. When you see comfortably numb you wonder what could they possibly do for an encore? Then they smack you with this. Amazing!
Then there is the second part which is a complete performance of Dark Side of the Moon
Actually Comfortably Numb and Run Like Hell were both encores, this came after they played DSOTM which closed out the second part of the main show.

Now THAT is how you finish a concert. Every song from this Pulse show is amazing.
"They're gonna send you back to mother in a cardboard box. You better run!"
The heat coming from the flames was crazy. Another great one from Pink Floyd.
Pink floyd makes "a wall of sound" so if you're at a concert you hear, see, and feel the music in the vibration
When you see them live, the music just blows through you.

If you can find it, Bill Bailey, who is a UK comedian and musician does a piece on it, although he is rinsing The Edge (basically, it's a setting that can make any tune sound amazing, the playing underneath the effect does not have to be great, if that makes any sense?) and Bill doesn't mention DG at all, it is, I am sure, the same effect. That was a long ramble!
Playing percussively on muted strings with long echoes.
I saw them in concert when i was 13. Mind-blowing. My dad helped the set up crew
Nice assessment, you two- well said, well done. I'm a Floyd Freak since about 1966 (a local DJ smuggled a taped show with Barrett out of England back to Canada for our late night FM jollies). One thing though: this was Pulse, Earls Court, 1994... not 2019... that's when they only did the remastering. Peace from Canada.
btw you were talking about maybe Floyd's best lines ever:
If you're taking your girlfriend out tonight
You better park the car well out of sight.
'Cause if they catch you in the backseat trying to pick her locks.
They're gonna send you back to London in a cardboard box.
(as sung live; on the record it is "back to Mother in a cardboard box.")
comfortably numb from the pulse concert is a must
To see Pink Floyd live in concert is mind blowing to say the least ! When the show's over and the lights come up you're left dazed ! You need at least 15 minutes to get your bearings ! Last time I saw them they played for 3 hours nonstop , And my seats were about 25' from the stage !
You experience Pink Floyd music. Music that goes to your brain.
Pink Floyd's Division Bell tour was their last. I took my wife who was pregnant with my oldest son to this show at the Oakland Coluseum in spring of 94. Pigs flying on the sides of the stage. The light show was epic, especially for the 90's. I am so glad to have experienced this live with my own two eyes and my soul. I can tell you that my son felt this show.
This concert is from 1994. Original bassist Roger Waters had left the band many years prior to that. Pink Floyd hasn't toured since then, and keyboardist Rick Wright passed away in 2008. Nowadays, the closest thing to experiencing their music IMHO is tribute band Brit Floyd - have seen them 3 times and going a 4th this summer - highly recommend. BJ and Asia - they are scheduled to play in Grand Prairie in June, check out their website for more info, I believe you would absolutely be blown away.
Sorrow from PULSE is a must!! :) well any song from PULSE is, but Sorrow .... just WOW.
This is still to this day the best concert Ive ever seen. Seen these guys twice as a band. Roger, Nick, and David over a dozen times solo. Echoes from Live at Gdansk, was amazing. Marc Brickman the production and lighting designer is the absolute best. Unfortunately there will likely never be anything like this again.
Thank you for your reaction. I watch you guys a lot and, your reactions are both thoughtfull and entertaining . I'm 75 and the music of Pink Floyd has been the constant most of my adult life. I enjoy your video as you delve into the phenomena that is Pink Floyd. The emotional Guitar work by David Gilmour is unmatched. The entire band and back up singers are great, and how they blend together is magical. I listen to Pink Floyd every day.
Check out "High Hopes",, It has a great message about the nostalgia of growing older, and Gilmour plays an acoustic guitar and lap steel guitar. Incredible!
Probably one of the most intelligent and progressive bands to ever come out of the UK. Dave Gilmour is a guitar god. You want to see them sing “echoes live at Pompeii 1972 ( watch the video) it’s an experience
This is 1994. Pink Floyd has not toured since then, though members have toured separately. They have long since disbanded. Check out 'Comfortably Numb' Pulse live. You will be awed.
This concert was October 1994 at Earl's Court London, unbelievably 28 years ago. This remastered version was put out in 2019. Still the best concert EVER, ANYWHERE, by ANYBODY
This show was one of many exactly like it as part of the world-wide "Division Bell" tour - the last tour Pink Floyd played. Fortunately, I caught one of them - it was as spectacular as the youtube videos! This song - "Time" - was the second and final encore song, played after "Hey You".
Pink Floyd rabbit hole! Go for it!! 😃
I will ❤️
Asia and BJ, you should get online and search up-coming concerts that will be performed in your city this summer, pick a band, and set a date, and GO ! These old classic bands are getting older ( approaching their 70's) and dying, soon to be gone forever. Go experience a real Live concert setting and make a video of it.
Next one from Pink Floyd - Dogs ( with lyric ) = 17 min song .. 🎸🎸🎶🎶
How lucky the audience were to witness such an amazing concert
i say that often how lucky we are to live when these people lived. it must be what it was like to see Mozart perform live for those who lived in his time
here is a thought
the number of people who DIDNT live to hear this music is uncountable
and the number of people who will be born after you can no longer hear it, is also uncountable
how lucky we few are not to be in either group eh?
Asia
Did you notice backup vocalists were swaying to this song? Every concert that Pink Floyd has at each show; they have vocalists with them on tour or have local vocalists.
I was about 10 rows from the stage for the Pulse concert. I also saw the Division Bell concert twice and Roger Walters' solo concerts 3 times. By far the best concerts I've seen, even though they were with my ex.
The Division Bell concert was Pulse. There was not 2. It is only called Pulse now because it was the name of the live album of the Division Bell tour. So I think you're imagining an extra concert. Saw the Division Bell tour in Dallas at the now gone Texas Stadium in 1994. It was one of those life changing events that I can't believe i was there for!!!!
@@jdlimages You are right, it was Momentary Lapse of Reason, when they were newly reunited and played in Toronto in the fall of 1987 and came back around again in the spring of 1988.
They do that song at the end of their show alot. Been a favorite band of mine since I was a teenager. That's a helluva concert to see.
Elders react to Pink Floyd
I said this before, I saw these guys over thirty years ago and they're still the best concert I ever went to
I was just to the left of, & slightly in front of the mixing desk. An absolutely awesome night.
Wasn’t it though? I was lucky enough to have VIP seats when they came to the US on this tour. 👍🏼
@@lynnhoffmann247 My first time was 1988 at Wembley Stadium, London. I was also lucky enough to see them reunited again at Live8.. 💖
@@onlymeian58 Lucky you! 🤗
The band has multiple sound and lighting engineers operating at every show. They were innovaters in bringing much of this stagecraft to rock music.
They were absolutely incredible live. They were melt you in your seat good!
I am glad you both both got to see RUN LIKE HELL live at the Pulse Concert. What a performance!!!
You never will see a better live performance than Pink Floyd in concert. Absolute perfection in sound, lighting and musicianship.
I was lucky enough to see them in Sydney Australia….in the late 80’s and was blown away completely.
Never seen anything come close since and I have seen plenty.
I've seen them more times than I can count. Every time felt like some kind of spiritual communion with like-minded, open, appreciative people.
Anything Pink Floyd is great with me. Love them for 45 years now. Master Gilmour is one with his guitars, so beautiful to listen to him play.
A classic Pink Floyd song.
See, people used to drop a little LSD before going to a Floyd concert (I say "used to"....ok) and the whole thing was an experience like no other. Their concerts and light shows were so infamous that even today there are laser light shows dedicated to people going to an arena like this where they will play Floyd music sync'd with the lights/lasers and those are also really cool...even without the band being there! :)
Ahh....memories. And yes, still one of the best concerts (Pulse) I've ever seen.
Seen the pulse tour in 1994 at Arrowhead Stadium.......they played for about 3 hours,was so loud my ears rang for a week! Best concert I've ever seen.
You can’t go wrong with any of Pink Floyd’s music
John P. ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!!!
Pulse tour was 1995. Seen them in Sydney twice. Absolutely epic. Best concert of my life to this day. Video gives no justice. Light and sound better than Coachella.
And they were that good even that much longer....well today if they are still playing.
This is what happens when the special effects guy asks the band, “What’s my budget?” And the band says, “No limit.”
"Sorrow" from this same Pulse Tour is great,every song from it is great
I've been lucky enough to see Pink Floyd live, its expensive, but its one of those gigs that's worth every penny, awesome.
Its worth it for the light show
Pulse is just brilliant, you need to see more!
The Shine on you crazy diamond version from Pulse is amazing and my favorite performance of that song.
I met David Gilmour in 1984 back stage at a concert in Hollywood Calif. He gave me a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know.
All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible. The Red Fender Stratocaster he used for this concert in the Guitar Collector World is ....PRICELESS
pink floyd live is an experience. i've only seen them once but hands down the greatest show i've ever seen.
I love to watch people that haven’t seen live Pink Floyd concerts. They stare at the performance like UFOs are landing. Like total astonishment… There was a time when there were large concerts that brought all sorts of people together. No matter the race, creed, or whatever, everyone was just getting together, enjoying the performance. We need that again. Music should bring folks together. Great video guys!
So grateful for this band.
Oh YES 😃
Probably the most influential. And best live band in the world
I saw this concert in Nashville in 1994 with my girlfriend (now wife of 27 years) and it was AWESOME! Thanks for the reaction.
"pulse 1994": 14 day's in a row sold out. 200 ton stage, 200,000 watts of power. 128 wireless speakers and a few works. saw Floyd 7 times. last time Pink Floyd except reunion at Live Aide. Same song with Dave at Pompeii . Dave the only person to perform in the Amphitheatre at Pompeii since 79 AD. ( 1972 & 2016 )
Pink Floyd always gave great performances
I was screaming my head off ..... it was from another universe amazing. And I went 2 nights running.
This was a fantastic Encore song. The final song of the Pulse concert was "Comfortably Numb", a totally awesome performance with an outstanding guitar solo by Gilmore. It is one of the best guitar solos of all time and an awesome light show. BJ would love it. You guys should definitely react to it.
I saw the Pulse concert back in 1994. Absolutely the best concert of anyone else'sI have seen. It's permanently etched in my memory till I die.
Pulse Is so great, you need to watch both DVD's but you need to go back in time and check out - Pink Floyd -"Echoes" Pompeii - you will enjoy it,
I too love Echoes.
I was lucky enough to see the Pulse Concert in the Oakland Coliseum. It was something else.
He has a delay pedal on his guitar. It’s an effect that takes each sound from the guitar and repeats it at certain intervals, you can adjust it. So a single note played will go like this: “dum dum dum dum dum dum . . . “ and fade out. If you play deadened, percussive notes on your guitar it creates the kind of sounds he was making.
I said exactly the same thing to myself when I watched this. Good old delay pedal. Always loved some of the interesting things you can create with one of those.
A Pink Floyd concert is not just an aural experience, it's a visual experience. If you haven't done it already, do The Great Gig In The Sky from the same Pulse concert.
"Run Like Hell"haha. "Raising Hell" was an iconic album by Run-DMC.
This performance is actually from 1994,on Floyd's "Division Bell" tour,the last tour of their career. I caught 2 of the 3 Philly shows (6/2 and 6/3) and both of the Washington DC shows (7/9 and 7/10). For sure a top-10 concert experience for me and I've seen most anyone who mattered from about 79-2008-ish. Have scaled it way back since. One feature of this tour was that they played the entire "Dark Side of The Moon" album each show. The lighting and effects were state of the art and still hold up,big time,all these years later.
I'm pretty sure at the time it ended this was the highest grossing tour ever. It's been passed since,of course.
It was asked how he did those sounds so I will explain, even though it has been a year since this video. There is a signal booster, a flanger and a compressor to note but delay effects are what you are interested in the most. He has two delay boxes that delay the sound so he is playing the notes slightly before you hear them.
The songs main part starts out with that rolling, chugging picking that you hear underlying throughout the song. In between that you hear little embellishments. The delay makes things sound more fluid in between the two. At the very start, he is making that chick chick sound by muting the strings. He is laying his hand across the strings to mute them at the bridge of the guitar. He also scrapes the pick down the string for that other effect.
You did Comfortably Numb, which was the song right before this at this concert (it was 1994). I saw this tour and there is no experience in life like it.
Spotid pulse live years ago, probably one of the best concerts ever ❤
Ha ha great reaction guys, there will never ever be another Pink Floyd once they are gone that's it.
Who writes music like this anymore? I'm so glad that I had the chance to see them live in Sydney in 1988, the best live band I've ever seen.
Not sure if they still do Pink Floyd laser light shows or not. But if you hear of one, go check it out.
