      He didn't feel the need to sacrifice the familiar, beloved solo in order to make himself look good or anything, and that's commendable- he could easily have played totally different stuff but up to where the song would normally fade out, he did it note for note then added extra to the coda; I applaud him for his restraint and faithfulness

"He could easily play it just like Gilmour, but there's no excitement for him in doing that.." If that is true than this just shows that something is fundamentally wrong with this guitar player. 1. It's about the music, not about the musician's ego, 2. the arc of suspense and phrasing in the said live version from Pink Floyd is insane, if there would be no excitement in it for him than he wouldn't understand a whole lot about music. But seriously I doubt that. I bet that he knows he can't play it quite as good as Gilmore and the shred was definitely just a fan service for all you nerds.

      Brit Floyd is basically Pinky reincarnate. Saw em at an outdoor show last year with 10,000 people. PHENOMENAL. They all use Fractal Axe Fx IIs direct to front of house with a quiet stage and in ear monitors. They play to a click and pretty much create a studio environment on the stage. Their tone is immaculate, and Damien Darlington is like Gilmour Jr.

      But for the record, I also can't get in to Yngwie, Dream Theater, etc. Because I feel too often they substitute technical wizardry for actual songwriting. Complex seldom actually adds emotion, because emotions are in themselves pretty simple.
