A 77 year old man, playing a 44 year old song, making a 20 year old kid get goose bumps. I was your age when this song was released and felt exactly the same you did!
I grew up with this music as well. I was 36 years old at this iconic performance. I'm glad to have lived through those times when artists could still take their time for breathtaking, lyrical perfection. Unfortunately, the business and its output are now increasingly resembling a fast food restaurant.
YES WE WERE THERE 🎉🎉 It was what one could call a spiritual experience!!!! And now i get to share all the great live performances of my generation on RUclips with my grandchildren. The kids are totally into it. We were blessed to have outstanding music from the 60's through to the 90's. Wonderful that you appreciate this real music!
The whole PULSE concert is absolutely incredible. This solo from Comfortably Numb is consistently ranked in many polls as the greatest live guitar solo of all time. Nobody does such emotional solos like David Gilmour. You should also react to the song "Sorrow" from the PULSE concerts for another phenomenal and mind blowing guitar solo.
@@79BlackRose He ought to do the whole Division Bell album really. In my opinion (it's been a while though) it is their next best album from the one's remaining.
The light show looks futuristic by today’s standards, yet this concert was 28 years ago in 1994. Another example of how Pink Floyd was ahead of their time. What an amazing group!
I heard my first Pink Floyd song on Christmas Eve 1968. I was 11 years old and the song was, " A Saucerful of Secrets," followed by. "Jugband Blues." Sal was the guy that turned our "Vadio" on to Floyd. Sal ran into Roger Waters coming down the stairs at the Whisky a go-go, in Hollywood in 1968. In their conversation, Sal asked. "What happened to Syd Barrett? Did he quiet?" Roger Waters, replied. "Sid went silly!"... True story.
It warms this old man's heart seeing young people like yourself enjoying this type of music. Prog rock is my favourite genre of music. It's well worth diving into.
Bad robot, couldn't have said better. Been a fan for over 50 years. This by far is the best Floyd song the best guitar solo of all time. If you can top this let me know, Please!
Unlike a lot of artists and bands who perform live to highlight their personalities and egos, Pink Floyd's intention was to create an experience. An experience of sound and light and spirit and emotion where the band members are a piece of this magnificent puzzle... not the reason for it. They succeed at that mission to the point that, if you were lucky to attend one or more of these shows, when it ends you feel like you are emerging from a dream. From some other place where sound and light and spirit and emotion merge.
Very true. I have to add that even with less lights, the last Gilmour's solo tour has been able to raise the same emotions. I cried tears on High Hopes. I've attended the gig in Circo Massimo in Rome I think it was in 2016. Of course I've been at all the Pink Floyd tours since 1985 at least once, plus Waters' The Wall. Also that was highly emotional, even missing Sir David on Comfortably Numb. He had Snowy White who is a great guitarist, but Gilmour is on another plan of existence.
Some bands fail to capture their magic in the studio, but absolutely kill it live. Some bands create great albums, but live they just don't have it. Pink Floyd's albums are miles ahead of most band's, and are true works of art. And then somehow their live show is still miles ahead of their albums. And all of those miles are straight up to the heavens. Unbelievable execution by this Gilmour-led group.
Now go lay back with your headphones and just really feel the emotion in this beautiful song. NEVER EVER stop during a solo!! Especially this one!!! You're my top 3 favorites to watch react and it's awesome to see young people "get" the feelings we did when we were rushing to buy the albums as soon as the album hit the stores.
I got to see Pink Floyd when I was 16 in 1987! Hands down, to this day, my favorite concert!! I was 8 rows back on the floor. It was so bright you could barely see the band. Didn't need to...
google this solo-performance: the long solo of this performance of the song (pulse) is widely considered the greatest rockguitar solo of all time. my personal opinion doesn´t matter but i´m 60 years old and having listened to rockmusic for about 50 years, for me personally it is.
I was there that night they filmed it. Loved Pink Floyd from an early age, and I can't describe how special and incredible it was to be there. The video doesn't do justice of the sound, vision and atmosphere. Watching your reaction was a reminder of how I was (and still am) moved by their talent. Especially for someone your age (I'm 56 😮😅) Bravo 👏 😎
I wish I had been there, I discovered pink Floyd in the early 90's but didn't get the opportunity to see them live, those that did have a real life affirming experience that will stay with them till their last breath.
My first concert, my favorite song by Pink Floyd. I was there in 94 and you have no idea what it was like. 80,000 people in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, all singing the lyrics, the lighting was incredible, the guitar solos were mesmerizing, and Pink Floyd...just WOW!
David Gilmour with his voice and guitar turns this into a major musical spiritual experience every single time I listen to it. Great to see a young persons reaction. Timeless.
This is what it was like in the 60"s 70"s at live concerts. Light shows at most big concerts but rarely topped the Floyd light show's. I lived thru the best musical era of the century.
Me to in the 60s and 70s bands went on stage they could sing and play their own instruments now it’s barely dressed women and electronic music they have no talent hence the reason i blast the old classics when I’m in the car
Well, the best version of Echoes I've heard (for my taste) is the one from David's "Live in Gdansk" DVD, which happens to be also the last performance of that song, as Rick Wright died shortly thereafter. It mesmerizes me to the point that when it finishes I wonder where all those minutes went... And it touches me so much, I find tears in my eyes almost every time. 🙂
Not every band can pull it off live. And not very many live recordings are as clean as the studio versions, which are usually perfectly polished. But when you can find a live version of a song that is well recorded, and played by a band capable of reproducing their songs live, you can't beat it. I love the energy of live performances. I love seeing the band doing their thing. And then you have Floyd, who has got all of that, and then also brings heaven down to earth with their stage show. This is the ultimate live show right here. None can top it.
Yea. Saw them on this tour at the ‘Shoe (Ohio State’s football stadium) It was one of those shows that genuinely change your life. (Saw them in 88 as well but the 94 tour was the one)
Probably the best live band of all time. David Gilmour is the master of the guitar and this is possibly the best solo ever. Choose any song from Pulse and you won't go wrong. It is the music you get when people of genuine talent get together. The 11th commandment- Thou shalt not pause a David Gilmour solo!!!
Best explanation I've heard for the "chills" is that your soul has found it's musical match. The music's vibrational frequency has found a MATCH with your own frequency and when the two meet, you get chills because what's internal and innate to you is now literally vibrating IN HARMONY with something that is external and that's powerful stuff.
I was one of those lucky people with 20,000 others who attended this concert at Earls Court in London.(Unfortunately this venue is no longer there) As you see it was a fabulous concert and one of the best I have seen, (I am 72 now) At the end people on exiting were just quiet and couldn't really believe what they had just witnessed! You must get the Pulse video then you can watch the whole concert and enjoy it as we all did who saw it live. So good to see a young person from a completely different generation enjoying this wonderful spectacle. This music will last for ever!
Cool reaction mate , I knew that solo would be too much for you to handle lol . Most first time viewers can't believe what they are watching. This entire concert is top drawer . It has Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety right in the middle too. Pink Floyd reunited for Live8 concert in 2005 , including Roger Waters who isn't in the band for the Pulse concert having left around 83/84.
Pink Floyd, and especially Gilmour, were famous for the incredibly long riffing solos. Gilmour himself has said that it's great fun but can't imagine what its like to watch it. As others have said, the Pulse concert is Floyd at their performance peak. Gilmour's voice just keeps getting better. His voice on his solo albums "On an Island" and "Rattle that Lock" is like silk wrapped caramel. I'd highly recommend watching the Live from Gdańsk concert (and the documentary that goes with it)
I totally agree with you on the performance aspect, however imo, even though their later concerts are still Awesome, I prefer the stage shows from the 80's with the blimps, screens, explosions ect...
On Gdansk High Hopes has a classical guitar and symphonic orchestra coda that ends on the "ping" of Echoes. The first time I've seen it at home, I stood up and applauded as I were there.
What a song.....What a perfomance!!! I don't know how many reactions I have watched with this song but nobody have ever shown the reaction you did. It's obvious you understand music and the vibe it can give you. Just wanted to say thank you for letting us listen to this amazing song and performance together with you. Much love from Sweden.
So nice to see young people enjoying this music. This is real music. I'm 67 yrs old and I still get goose bumps. I'm also happy to say my grandkids love this stuff too...
glad some of you kids are listening to the good ol classic rock....first time watching your channel man...keep on having an open mind....PEACE OUT BROTHER!!!
FYI brother, there is a newer "Restored and Re-edited" version of Pulse on youtube, with higher quality audio and video. Same show, just a cleaner version of it.
I was at the show in Vancouver, British Columbia in '94, and it was absolutely AMAZING!! Glad you got to see the live version, any live Floyd is great and if you just watch some David Gilmour live shows as well, an incredible talent. Keep up the good work Silas, your doing a great job!
There's something about PF art. They know how to take the listener to a very special place. Glad you had the opportunity to experience this epic performance.
Great show! I saw them on this tour but in the US, KC, MO. Arrowhead stadium. Great reaction man, I love watching you younger people getting to see and enjoy some of the greatest music ever performed including Pink Floyd, Dream Theater,(they are definitely masters or their craft), Nightwish, Epica, Rush and so many more!
Saw the show at Soldier Field in Chicago that summer. The video is great, but imagine it at about a million decibels and 360° surround sound all around the stadium. As if the stage lighting and blinding ball of light at the center of the stadium wasn't enough, throw in some mother nature lighting in the form of lightning⚡ in the skies above, and you pretty much have an out-of-body experience. This was one for the ages.
Beautiful reaction! What remains in the center of the sphere, when it opens, is the crazy pink diamond representing the heart of Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd, who flew away too soon. I am 64 years old and it opens my heart to see a teenager get emotional like I did when, at the age of 13, in 1973, I listened to Pink Floyd for the first time. All the emotions you felt at your first listen are more or less the same that many of my peers felt at the first meeting with this magical band. Go into the rabbit hole, I don't know when or if you'll make it out, but I guarantee you won't regret it. Enjoy it! Greetings from Sardinia (Italy)
Silas - your reaction to the '94 pulse concert performance of Comfortably Numb is almost as epic as the show itself. The first time I listened to the second solo, the sensation throughout my entire body was similar to what you descibed - chills all over, slight tremors, but in my case I recall shedding a single tear. My description of that experience can be summed up in a word, 'orgasmic'! Keep up the good work, dude. You have great camera presence - that killer smile will eventually break a heart or two.
A good friend of mine worked for the company that did all the special lighting fx so I got to see this tour from behind the lighting desk. Mind. Blown.
next one from Pink Floyd - On the Turning away ( live to the Delicate sound of Thunder concert 1989 ) 😎👍 or Sorrow ( live to Pulse 1994 ) or Coming back to life ( live Pulse 1994 )
No costumes or dancing girls needed. They shock you with their overwhelming talent and performance perfectly!! Great reaction video as I loved to see you experience as we watched them.
This concert was held at Earls Court over two weeks. Each performance was sold out although they had to cancel one performance as the scaffolding holding seats at the back collasped. I went on the middle Saturday and had a seat roughly in the middle of the stage about 10 rows back. The whole concert was mind blowing. The sound, the lights and lasers together with rats, planes and a disco ball lol! You needed to see this concert twice to take everything in. I still remember everything about that night ...... I am now 70 lol! These things are great to remember as I sit in my bath chair ....... Pink Floyd the best band ever.
Back then, we went to concerts, there were no cell phones. It was about the music and each other. Not that cell phones aren't great, but I miss those days of not having them at concerts. A whole different vibe. Fantastic reaction to this awesome performance by Pink Floyd. Thanks!
Comfortably Numb is definitely a serious work of art! Love to see you excited too! Fun to watch with you! 10:28..."Cicada, I'm trying to record a video (open & shut door)!" 🤣
Would you believe that this wasn't even the finale of this show? Run Like Hell followed. But literally the entire show from start to finish is amazing. I didn't attend this particular show but saw them a few months earlier in Los Angeles. It was at the Rose Bowl with probably 90,000 people. We had tickets on the field in front of the stage. There was a large covered thing in the middle of the field, literally right next to us. We figured it was electrical equipment for the show. But during that second solo, the disco ball rose up out of it (instead of down from the ceiling like in this performance). Imagine the spectacle of this video (in an indoor venue with around 20,000 people) in an outdoor stadium with 5 times that many people, and the disco ball lights shining on every single one of them. When it opened up into the lotus flower or whatever it's supposed to be, I literally started crying. The most incredible moment of my life. For comparison, you should check out David Gilmour's performance of this in Pompeii in 2016. He's way older but I actually think that solo is somehow better. Anyway I think they performed this in the same venue (Earl's Court London) for 14 consecutive nights! All sold out. Sadly it was demolished a few years ago.
I wasn't at this concert, but saw them doing the same show in Hamburg, Germany in 1994 - and it was beyond fantastic, it was other worldly ! That stage was three stories high and the light show was mind blowing!
I saw them in this tour in Munich/Germany and the day after I had only one thing on my mind - I need to get tickets for the same show two weeks later in Hanover/Geemany. ...and I did. I liked seeing you getting goosebumps BEFORE the second solo. 😁
Get ready for the lasers and other lights. Pink is well known for those in their shows. As always, David's guitar work is unreal. No flash just his smooth style. The members of this band are true masters of their craft. Relaxed and smooth performance. Goosebumps and chills are normal. And a sense of peace and calm. One of the BEST rock bands EVER. Period - full stop. Their work speaks for itself.... I love your reaction Silas. So honest and real. I think at one time Pink had an F-1 racing team. ???? It brings joy to my heart to see young people discovering the music of my youth. ENJOY!!!!
I now, more than ever, think this is the greatest encore of all time. The whole concert keeps me wanting to get up every 30 seconds. Try the song "Learning to Fly". It's a favorite. Enjoyed watching with you. Going to subscribe!

The guitar is older than this young man.
48 year old man at the time bud
Same here - I was 24 in 1979, the best time of my life !
YES WE WERE THERE 🎉🎉
It was what one could call a spiritual experience!!!!
And now i get to share all the great live performances of my generation on RUclips with my grandchildren. The kids are totally into it.

I agree, although I would encourage Silas to hear the "Sorrow" studio version first. That way, I think the live version has even more impact.
@@79BlackRose He ought to do the whole Division Bell album really. In my opinion (it's been a while though) it is their next best album from the one's remaining.
@@justinatest9456 I would be happy to se him react to "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" and "The Division Bell" when he returns to Pink Floyd.
Hell yes
This concert is incredible! I recommend you "The great gig in the sky" from the same show. Cheers! Pink Floyd rules!
73 yrs old and I still have that reaction kid! It says with you. Glad to see you love it.
The light show looks futuristic by today’s standards, yet this concert was 28 years ago in 1994. Another example of how Pink Floyd was ahead of their time. What an amazing group!
And they were old veterans, even then!
Saw this tour in Washington DC, best concert I ever saw.
When was div bell in London
@ The Division Bell Tour finished up at Earls Court in London in October, 1994. They played 14 nights in London.
I heard my first Pink Floyd song on Christmas Eve 1968. I was 11 years old and the song was, " A Saucerful of Secrets," followed by. "Jugband Blues." Sal was the guy that turned our "Vadio" on to Floyd. Sal ran into Roger Waters coming down the stairs at the Whisky a go-go, in Hollywood in 1968. In their conversation, Sal asked.

Now THAT is how you're supposed to react to Pink Floyd, live!!
6' foot 5" 300 lbs 75 year's ...a tear just rolled down my face.
It warms this old man's heart seeing young people like yourself enjoying this type of music. Prog rock is my favourite genre of music. It's well worth diving into.

a whole new generation learning of the genius of floyd. good to see.

Roger would have something to say about the last sentence lol
I introduced my 13 year old daughter to Floyd 6 years ago . After that she had Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall on repeat.
Proudest day of my life.
The lights, the lasers, the music....this is why you do acid to go see PINK FLOYD!🐐💯❤️✌️🤯🤗
Amen brother
The best version to watch 😊
Watch the entire PULSE concert. This is the greatest live guitar solo of all time. ✌🏻❤️from Texas
Now go lay back with your headphones and just really feel the emotion in this beautiful song. NEVER EVER stop during a solo!! Especially this one!!! You're my top 3 favorites to watch react and it's awesome to see young people "get" the feelings we did when we were rushing to buy the albums as soon as the album hit the stores.
Yes his reaction was exactly what you'd want to this masterpiece.
Bro so cool you air guitar to the same songs I have for forty years. Keep it up little brother.
I saw Pink Floyd at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena with 110,000 people in 1994. It was the best concert of my life.
I was there too....
It was the best concert of my life. Udine , Italy, 1995
Best solo. Best song. Best album. Best guitarist
Greetings from Finland, this concert is something else :)
I got to see Pink Floyd when I was 16 in 1987! Hands down, to this day, my favorite concert!! I was 8 rows back on the floor. It was so bright you could barely see the band. Didn't need to...
Young man, your reaction is priceless. They are the greatest band ever
I was there in Boston 1994 for the Pulse concert and the 1987 concert in Boston as well. Nothing like it ever!!
Well done, son! You got IT!
I get goosebumps EVERY TIME I listen to the live version solos.
google this solo-performance: the long solo of this performance of the song (pulse) is widely considered the greatest rockguitar solo of all time. my personal opinion doesn´t matter but i´m 60 years old and having listened to rockmusic for about 50 years, for me personally it is.
One of the top 10 greatest guitar solos
I was there that night they filmed it. Loved Pink Floyd from an early age, and I can't describe how special and incredible it was to be there. The video doesn't do justice of the sound, vision and atmosphere. Watching your reaction was a reminder of how I was (and still am) moved by their talent. Especially for someone your age (I'm 56 😮😅) Bravo 👏 😎
Saw them live a number of times including this tour. Literally the hairs on your body all tingle. It’s otherworldly in person
I only saw them live once: the 1990 The Wall - Berlin concert. The list of guest artists was lengthy!
I wish I had been there, I discovered pink Floyd in the early 90's but didn't get the opportunity to see them live, those that did have a real life affirming experience that will stay with them till their last breath.
I was at Earls Court in '94 and can confirm it was an experience I will never forget. Gilmore is the GOAT.

You really need to see Echoes performed live at Pompeii. Excellent PF reactions... I am enjoying your journey.
Well, the best version of Echoes I've heard (for my taste) is the one from David's "Live in Gdansk" DVD, which happens to be also the last performance of that song, as Rick Wright died shortly thereafter. It mesmerizes me to the point that when it finishes I wonder where all those minutes went... And it touches me so much, I find tears in my eyes almost every time. 🙂
I was one of the 20000+ crowd, and I think it's fair to say, there are no words to describe that night. I still get goose bumps every time I watch it.

Well said sir.
Amen
11th, 12th, 13th and 14th commandments. All in caps.
I haven't missed a tour since 1977.....and I still have no words❤
Watching this guy enjoy this in such an emotional way is awesome!!! love your reactions, keep it up!!

@@lucapolidori8817 the joy of the Gdańsk concert was having the orchestra there. Castellorizon with the live orchestra is stunning.
I really like the Sao Paulo live video
I saw this tour in Philadelphia; floor seats.
When that giant disco ball lit up, the whole stadium felt like it was spinning.
It was crazy
To see a young person reacting with awe and respect to Pink Floyd...there is no words.
What a song.....What a perfomance!!!

Great reaction. I was lucky enough to be at this exact concert 20th October 1994. No concert has come close to this.
Maybe even better than this might be the Pulse version of Sorrow. Crushing guitar from Gilmour. One of my faves for sure.
I prefer "Sorrow". And it has more relatable lyrics as well. Same as "On The Turning Away".
The Delicate Sound of Thunder version is epic!!
Also, I would suggest " The Great Gig in the Sky" but from the Delicate Sound of Thunder concert!
It's great to see young people get into this band. There was no one like them before or after. Enjoy. You have loads to catch up on. ❤️
FYI brother, there is a newer "Restored and Re-edited" version of Pulse on youtube, with higher quality audio and video. Same show, just a cleaner version of it.
I believe there is a bit longer dark solo as well
You can't go wrong with anything from this concert. Shine on Crazy Diamond, Sorrow, High Hopes, the list goes on and on.
This is my favourite, and I saw this live at Earls Court. But my second favourite is One Of These Days.
I was at the show in Vancouver, British Columbia in '94, and it was absolutely AMAZING!! Glad you got to see the live version, any live Floyd is great and if you just watch some David Gilmour live shows as well, an incredible talent. Keep up the good work Silas, your doing a great job!
Saw it in Toronto. As life-changing as being abducted by aliens I think.
There's something about PF art. They know how to take the listener to a very special place. Glad you had the opportunity to experience this epic performance.
You really should see the whole Pulse live concert.
And David Gilmour’s Remember that night live concert.
And his and PF Live at Pompeii concerts.
That was so much fun to watch!
Hope you do more PULSE.
Goosebumps? This solo brought tears to my eyes - still does, every time I see someone react to it. Great reaction - as always...
I saw this concert in Montreal in 1994, it was just amazing! Every time I see a video from that concert I get goosebumps!
Your reaction is priceless . You feel it down your bones! I am glad you had the chance to hear, feel and see this fantastic track.
It's so great to see another generation being blown away by these songs! Thanks for this!
Great show! I saw them on this tour but in the US, KC, MO. Arrowhead stadium. Great reaction man, I love watching you younger people getting to see and enjoy some of the greatest music ever performed including Pink Floyd, Dream Theater,(they are definitely masters or their craft), Nightwish, Epica, Rush and so many more!
This was the most memorable concert of my life. I saw this tour at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA and it was simply incredible.
Saw the show at Soldier Field in Chicago that summer. The video is great, but imagine it at about a million decibels and 360° surround sound all around the stadium. As if the stage lighting and blinding ball of light at the center of the stadium wasn't enough, throw in some mother nature lighting in the form of lightning⚡ in the skies above, and you pretty much have an out-of-body experience. This was one for the ages.
'Run Like Hell' follows this song and closes the show. A must watch in my humble opinion.👍👍
Hay kiddo, keep up the great job..lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌸
Beautiful reaction! What remains in the center of the sphere, when it opens, is the crazy pink diamond representing the heart of Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd, who flew away too soon. I am 64 years old and it opens my heart to see a teenager get emotional like I did when, at the age of 13, in 1973, I listened to Pink Floyd for the first time. All the emotions you felt at your first listen are more or less the same that many of my peers felt at the first meeting with this magical band. Go into the rabbit hole, I don't know when or if you'll make it out, but I guarantee you won't regret it. Enjoy it! Greetings from Sardinia (Italy)
Silas - your reaction to the '94 pulse concert performance of Comfortably Numb is almost as epic as the show itself. The first time I listened to the second solo, the sensation throughout my entire body was similar to what you descibed - chills all over, slight tremors, but in my case I recall shedding a single tear. My description of that experience can be summed up in a word, 'orgasmic'! Keep up the good work, dude. You have great camera presence - that killer smile will eventually break a heart or two.
A good friend of mine worked for the company that did all the special lighting fx so I got to see this tour from behind the lighting desk. Mind. Blown.
i was at that concert , just to the left of the mixing desk under the mirror ball ! it still gives me goosebumps !
next one from Pink Floyd - On the Turning away ( live to the Delicate sound of Thunder concert 1989 ) 😎👍 or Sorrow ( live to Pulse 1994 ) or Coming back to life ( live Pulse 1994 )
When I saw this, I thought to myself, this guy’s gonna lose his shit when he hears that solo.
No costumes or dancing girls needed. They shock you with their overwhelming talent and performance perfectly!! Great reaction video as I loved to see you experience as we watched them.
Live at Pompeii when they were young is the most epic filmed concert ever
Silas, it’s sheer enjoyment watching your reactions. You definitely FEEL the magic and you’re honest about it. Your sense of wonder is infectious.
This concert was held at Earls Court over two weeks. Each performance was sold out although they had to cancel one performance as the scaffolding holding seats at the back collasped. I went on the middle Saturday and had a seat roughly in the middle of the stage about 10 rows back. The whole concert was mind blowing. The sound, the lights and lasers together with rats, planes and a disco ball lol! You needed to see this concert twice to take everything in. I still remember everything about that night ...... I am now 70 lol! These things are great to remember as I sit in my bath chair ....... Pink Floyd the best band ever.
Saw the pulse concert in Oakland, Ca
Back then, we went to concerts, there were no cell phones. It was about the music and each other. Not that cell phones aren't great, but I miss those days of not having them at concerts. A whole different vibe.
Fantastic reaction to this awesome performance by Pink Floyd. Thanks!
April 29th '94 saw this live and my life hasn't been the same since! The whole experience left us awestruck! Great reaction! Keep them coming!
All I can say is you are awesome in your true reaction to this.These guys play real music!!
I'm a 75 yr old and have been a Floyd fan since then beginning and it does my heart good to see a young person that gets it...
Fabulous reaction to that epic performance, always makes me cry its so powerful and played so brilliantly by the now ageing band members.
Just to let you know, they perform the entire Dark Side Of The Moon album live at this show. Absolutely mind blowing.
Yes, I attended this concert in 1994 at Rose Bowl, Pasadena CA. It was an experience of lifetime
My brothers saw this tour in Dallas, Tx. In '94. I was travelling for work at the time...😪
Comfortably Numb is definitely a serious work of art! Love to see you excited too! Fun to watch with you! 10:28..."Cicada, I'm trying to record a video (open & shut door)!" 🤣
Would you believe that this wasn't even the finale of this show? Run Like Hell followed. But literally the entire show from start to finish is amazing. I didn't attend this particular show but saw them a few months earlier in Los Angeles. It was at the Rose Bowl with probably 90,000 people. We had tickets on the field in front of the stage. There was a large covered thing in the middle of the field, literally right next to us. We figured it was electrical equipment for the show. But during that second solo, the disco ball rose up out of it (instead of down from the ceiling like in this performance). Imagine the spectacle of this video (in an indoor venue with around 20,000 people) in an outdoor stadium with 5 times that many people, and the disco ball lights shining on every single one of them. When it opened up into the lotus flower or whatever it's supposed to be, I literally started crying. The most incredible moment of my life. For comparison, you should check out David Gilmour's performance of this in Pompeii in 2016. He's way older but I actually think that solo is somehow better. Anyway I think they performed this in the same venue (Earl's Court London) for 14 consecutive nights! All sold out. Sadly it was demolished a few years ago.
Loved your reaction man.
Saw this tour in Tempe az in 94,an amazing show.best concert I've ever been to ,
I wasn't at this concert, but saw them doing the same show in Hamburg, Germany in 1994 - and it was beyond fantastic, it was other worldly ! That stage was three stories high and the light show was mind blowing!
I saw them in this tour in Munich/Germany and the day after I had only one thing on my mind - I need to get tickets for the same show two weeks later in Hanover/Geemany. ...and I did. I liked seeing you getting goosebumps BEFORE the second solo. 😁
Thanks for keeping the dream alive from Australia
Get ready for the lasers and other lights. Pink is well known for those in their shows. As always, David's guitar work is unreal. No flash just his smooth style. The members of this band are true masters of their craft. Relaxed and smooth performance. Goosebumps and chills are normal. And a sense of peace and calm. One of the BEST rock bands EVER. Period - full stop. Their work speaks for itself.... I love your reaction Silas. So honest and real. I think at one time Pink had an F-1 racing team. ???? It brings joy to my heart to see young people discovering the music of my youth. ENJOY!!!!
I now, more than ever, think this is the greatest encore of all time. The whole concert keeps me wanting to get up every 30 seconds. Try the song "Learning to Fly". It's a favorite. Enjoyed watching with you. Going to subscribe!
I was at the Pulse Tour show in 1995 in the New Orleans Superdome. Absolutely the best audio/visual show I have ever seen!!!!
They played 3 consecutive nights in Montreal Canada on this Tour, I was there for the first night. Best concert of my life!
