![Bout time for some more 🎸🙌🏽 | Pink Floyd - Learning To Fly [REACTION]](/img/1.gif)
There’s not a single moment of this concert that isn’t just perfect. Every song, every lighting effect, all of it. You could pick one at random and not go wrong.
and not forget the background singers. So many differnt and perfect dance moves for nearly every song.
@aregeebee201That’s perfect too!
@aregeebee201 yeah I didn’t say that every song on Pulse is the definitive version, just that they are all incredible. There are parts of DSOT that I like better for sure.
@aregeebee201 Special for me too, as I got to see them in January 1988 at the start of the Momentary Lapse Tour, and this was obviously going to be played. It's worth remembering that this was their first single from post-Roger Waters Pink Floyd, and it was the most radio friendly song at the time.
I've always told people this is one of the best concerts I've ever seen and I first saw it on VHS. Wish I could have seen this live.
The light show design was so ahead of its time. Remember this was done in 1994. There’s nothing like Pink Floyd.
Pink Floyd are so far ahead of their time we're still trying to catch up.
It wasn't only ahead of it's time, it doesn't pay off for artists to do these kinds of productions anymore.
I was seeing this concert in Sweden back then and it was wow. It was not only the massive amount of lights and lasers and projectors that they had in their disposal but their programming was genius. For example the basic arc of lights that that forms a semi circle of lights in the back of the stage. Every song they had different patterns that fit the music perfectly. And then the lasers. In that concert they switched them on first time and at the song "sorrow". I never seen anything like that. Massive green beams scanning over the audiense and reaching the actual clouds (it was out a door stadium concert).
I remember there was an interview from the light programmer and he said that some of the lights he requested arrived too late and he already programmed the other lights, and there was a simply no room for these new lights anymore. I was thinking that you can always have a more, but he was right. They had enough :)
The Wall remains the best show
@@nicoladc89 and it cost the band nearly half a million dollars when they were done.
Floyd gives every member of the band their Center stage moment. Whether it's the background singers or background guitarist. Everyone gets their moments.
Except for John Carin (second pianist). He doesn't really have a solo moment, but when you listen to this concert as a whole, he's so vital to the production with his harmonies and musicality. Everyone is in a league of their own, so it seems.
That’s Dave gilmour for you he’s I great guy very fair try telling that to roger waters I think he might be a little envious?❤❤❤?
The history of this song is really a 'fun' story. Apparently, Gilmour was afraid of flying before he started taking flight lessons. So, Learning to Fly was symbolic of two stages: the fear of getting over it and the actual ability to fly.
But David Gilmour can do anything-except get Waters to understand reason. That's Waters' fault.
DG actually bought an ex-Red Arrows Folland Gnat jet trainer aircraft. He then set-up the Intrepid Aviation Company to keep it maintained. Story at the time was that he couldn't actually fly his jet as it was too small for him/he was too big for it. It is a tiny aircraft.
😀
Stacey, React até...Any Colour You Like/ Brain Damage/ Eclipse...Live Pulse...and Shine On You Crazy Diamond live Pulse...Coming Back To Life...is Very Very Good!!!
Both David and Nick were into flying. More so Nick. He still flies around the place.
@@russellfolk9846 they operated a P51 for a while too, in Debden colours.
Coming Back to Life, please, please, please. Another Floyd song that you got to experience. You will never run out of wonderful experiences listening to Pink Floyd. Have a great day Stacey.
Thank y'all for liking my Coming Back to Life comment I hope she plays it soon. I'm sure Stacey will love this song.
Yes, coming back to live is also worth watching!
Also Stacy, please react to "One of These Days" from this concert...it's a trip!
I love this song and the performance.
And Red sky at night from the Album Live in Gdansk
Just a little bit of interesting information. This tour (which was actually called the 'Division Bell Tour' named after the studio album but referred to as 'Pulse', the name of the live album) was so massive and sophisticated that the group actually had three of these massive setups that leapfroged ahead so that it would be all set up by the time the band got to the next concert venue. Once a performance was finished, the group would start to break down the setup while the band went on ahead to another venue with that stage already set up, so all they had to do was rehearse. Meanwhile, the stage that was broken down would be sent two cities ahead of the band. It was a massive undertaking, but it was very worthwhile.
Don't you wish that you grew up in these times I did and seen quite a few of them it will always be in my memory
U2 did the same with the 360 tour, a massive multiple year worldwide tour which had an enormous Claw stage in the middle of the stadium(s). They had about 3 or 4 moving skeleton stages moving around ahead of coming dates to build up and then only the lights, audio, etc had to be hooked up. So a certain amount of people on the crew was never actually in town when U2 played.
If I could go back in time and attend any concert in history, it would be this one
I was 14. Couldn’t get permission or a ride to get there - it was a little too far and I was a little too young. I tried. A year older and I could have pulled it off.
It still bothers me.
@@michaelcroteau5919I was a month shy of my 16th birthday, but also on the wrong continent :(
I saw them at RFK Stadium in Wash., D.C. on this tour.
I still get goosebumps when I think about it. They were unfuckingbelievable!!!
You and me, bud!
I was a sophomore in high school. A buddy of was going to the show in Raleigh, NC with his mom. He invited me. My mom wouldn't let me miss a day of school to go. A couple years later, she let my sister miss school to see Pantera. I don't hold grudges, but that creeps into my thoughts every time I watch a pulse video.
The 2nd guitarist id the brilliant Tim Renwick. It says a lot for David that he gave him such a spotlight in this second song of the show. The percussion player, Gary Wallis is phenomenal. An amzing musician. He has such an incredible range of percussion instruments to hit all around his cage as well as a conventional kit built in at the front. He also had electronic drums which triggered sound samples which gave him an almost limitless playground to chose from. A natural showman, he put the high ones up so far so he would have the chance to leap p to get them. The the whole show is stunning. This is how it's done!
Also, Stormy White, who was not only on this tour as backup for David, but was the "unofficial fifth member" during the Dark Side thru The Wall era tours. Also, famously recorded the guitar solo between Pigs On The Wing parts. David once said Stormy could easily replace him without anyone noticing, although I'm sure that was an exaggeration!
Renwick also plays the second solo on Another Brick In The Wall Part 2, and on the audio release of P.U.L.S.E, I think he outdoes Gilmour.
After being introduced to Pink Floyd in 1974, now an old guy, they have been a part of my life's journey. I did attend this show in San Antonio, Tx. Thanks
I saw this tour in Philadelphia, Vets Stadium.
Their light show was second to none. There are no bad seats at a Pink Floyd show. The entire production is designed to reach every single person in the place. The sound quality, the lights, the giant video screens. its not just a concert, its an experience.
Also: if you look closely, that stage is a giant eye. The circular screen is the pupil.
The Vet and The Floyd, BOTH no longer with us...saw the Animals tour at The Spectrum, with the inflatable pig floating above the arena outside..
Glad to see so many young people enjoying Pink Floyd. I worked on the stage crew for the Pulse Cdn. tour. Awesome being backstage watching the shows & getting paid! Glad I kept my pay stubs.
You could be shure there are so much young people that love Pink Floyd. I'm 19 and I discovered them at my 7 years old. I instantly became a fan! You have so much chance to see them at this time, unfortunately, I could never see them alive.
Greetings from Miami. Great reaction, Stacey! Another great song from the Pulse collection is COMING BACK TO LIFE.
Absolutely 👍!
The difference between Pink Floyd's stage production to other's elaborate stage/light shows is that Pink Floyd uses their production to help tell the story and supply the song's atmosphere unlike any other band since where those are simply distractions from the artist on stage.... David Gilmour is one who is happy to let his band mates shine on stage and you can see it on his face. If you ever see any of his interviews you will see how polite and positive he carries himself and how he speaks with his deep British accent.
I was on their show in 1992. Unforgettable . A Pig was flying under the roof. Musically it was perfect. The lasers and the general lightings were something you will not see in todays concerts.
Tim Renwick is truly the unsung hero of this song. One of mankind's greatest achievements is in the second solo.
Also, Pink Floyd is the most amazing rabbit hole to go down in music. Kick back and enjoy the ride.
I love that Pink Floyd put the backup singers up front on stage. They deserve to be there!! Most amazing light show ever!!
ONE OF THESE DAYS from the PULSE CONCERT no vocals, bass solo then davids solo on the steel lap guitar
That jumping drummer is Gary Wallis, who at that time usually had a big percussion set up that almost felt like he was in a cage. Gilmour saw him play with, I believe, Pete Townsend of The Who and immediately thought that this is the guy I need to add some extra spice on stage and also to provide original drummer Nick Mason with someone who could support his playing. That jumping around was the result of Wallis having this wall of drums which he set up that way.
I love Saturday mornings!...I love Pink Floyd!...I love reactions from Stacey!. Oh, I love gifts too and this is a lovely gift! Best Pink Floyd reactions...period!!!
No matter how much bad I feel, if I heard this song I immediately get calm and relax. What a song? ❤
Dave, drummer Nick Mason, and manager Steve O'Rourke were all licensed pilots by this time in their rich ass private lives. So that had some bearing on the lyrics. The lead guitarist on this version is longtime live guitarist Tim Renwick. The jumping percussionist is Gary Wallis and he sets up his kit so he has to jump for some reason.
I love your detailed comments... love it, love it, love it!
Absolutely loving your Pink Floyd reactions. Your visceral responses are everything! And as cool as the light show looks on video, when you are there in person, this is taking place in front of you, over you, and behind you. Their use of surround sound is also very creative, where most of the music is coming from the stage, but many of the added sound effects are coming from everywhere. The experience is completely encompassing.
Hey Stacey, Awesome reaction!!! I saw this concert live, Yes I'm old as dirt, it was killer. The only time I saw them. Mostly due to location. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Yes! My partner in cry is back with another Pink Floyd review! Love your reactions so much Stacey! You really understand and feel their music! ❤😃
it's amazing that this concert took place in 1994, 30th anniversary 😂, and in our time with concerts with big LED's, computers and robots this concert is still awesome!
In the 80's, both Nick and David had a phase where they liked piloting planes and this song is about it. In 1994, one way to promote their tour, they had a Zeppelin which was all painted to Pink Floyd's designs. That 1994 tour was something the world never had seen before. 3 set of stages going around the world. 50 semis per stage, 3 days to build it up and another 3 days tp get it down. They even had their own power generators because the venues did not have enough power for their setup.
Often Gilmour needs a second guitar backing up live, like in "Wish You Were Here". Tim Renwick took this part sometimes in Floyd-concerts. The solo was given to him as a birthday-present, I heard.
He played the solo every evening, not a birthday gift but simply a moment for him to shine.
Don't forget the solo to another brick. 😊
Another great Pink Floyd song, can’t wait for your reaction to Keep Talking 😊. The inspiration for this song came from David and his feelings when he was really learning how to fly an airplane.
The percussionist is Gary Wallis, the bassist Guy Pratt, and the (usually background) guitarist is Tim Renwick. They started this, when Tim had his birthday on a concert and David granted him to play the solo.
That other guitarist is the great Tim Renwick- he's done a lot of solo work, and with Floyd.
He's great!!
+ The Sutherland Brothers ❤
"Got to keep my eyes / on the circling skies" is a wonderful image. Pink Floyd did that so well, conjuring up visual ideas.
Pink Floyd’s production was second to none
Your Pulse reactions have totally opened my eyes to the magic of Floyd’s Gilmour era! 🎶
Miss Stacy,
It is a pleasure to watch you fall in love with Pink Floyd. I like how you appreciate everything you are experiencing. You allow yourself to feel the music. There is nothing like pink Floyd. There will never be another guitarist like David Gilmore.
I hope that when we die and go to heaven that the traveling music we get to hear is a solo Dave Gilmore is resonating throughout the universe.
You are a breath of fresh air in how you enjoy pink Floyd.
I wish I knew you and it would be one of the greatest things to have experienced that concert with you. Especially if you had never knew anything about pink Floyd.
I saw that concert and it changed my life. I wasn't a pink Floyd fan at all. I was invited to that show. And I have to tell you I didn't know how to act I was so beyond lost in it. I didn't want that show to end. I couldn't believe what I just saw.
I have been to a hundred concerts in my life but nothing has ever come close to the genius of pink Floyd.
It would have been even greater if you were there. You would have made it even better because you love it from the moment you heard it.
I wish you were there.
The blonde backup singer is Sam Brown, daughter of Joe Brown, a UK 60s singer actor of screen & Stage. Each member of this ensemble(singers and session muso's) is at the peak of their craft, picked for their skills and well renowned throughout the industry as individual artists.
The drums are "rotor drums" tuned by rotation the head of the set. There are around 5 "rotos" on a rack, occasionally you can see them in other PULSE clips, floating above Nick(the main drummer)
I've seen many Concerts, but this Tour has to be the best one I ever saw, hands down!
Glad you covered this song,It’s very underrated 👍👍
The story behind the song is that he wrote it while learning to fly an airplane ✈️
Some people don’t like the solo in this live version because they say he a bit OTT.
Under rated
I am 65 and love Pink Floyd from Ummagumma ! Pink Floyd forever !
Greatest concert to date; this song is indicative of all of their talent. David and Nick both hocked their planes as they had became pilots, to fund this concert- needless to say they more than made it back.
Stacey you quoted Tom Petty learning to fly lyrics not Pink Floyd.
David and Nick are nervous flyers so they decided to become pilots. The song is talking about the transcendental experience of flying…”upon planet on a wing and a prayer. My grubby halo a vapor trail in the empty air. Across the clouds I see my shadow fly out of the corner of my watering eyes. ……..there’s no sensation to compare with this, suspended animation a state of bliss…”
I saw them in ‘87 and they played for 3.5 hours with an intermission half way.
It's cool that you're enjoying discovering older music. This was the first Pink Floyd song I really liked. Today it is difficult to say which Pink Floyd song is the best. I really like their performance in the song "coming back to life" and also "a great day for freedom", but I believe that the latter is not on pulse.
Gilmour is in the studio recording new music.........Yay !!!!
i saw this concert at the Oakland colosseum in 94. It was was my twenty-first birthday and the greatest experience of my life.
PF are known to be a very casual group, the proof is in the talent, not the clothes. Did you know that with early PF concerts, they played out of site of the audience because they wanted people to focus on the music, not the band members.
So glad they recorded this pulse concert. I own it on cd, dvd and even VHS. It is the greatest concert ever. Been listening to this show since 1994 and still enjoying it with your reactions today. Thank you🙏
David was deathly afraid of flying. He finally conquered it. Of course tremendous experience listening to them. Great reaction. Totally worth listening to.
Same concert...Coming Back To Life and A Great Day For Freedom...simply stunning.
Hi Stacey 😍😍😍😍😍!!!!! Hello from France !!!!! Cool Pink Floyd !!!! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸Pulse it's a masterpiece !!!
They don't make them like they used to. Pink Floyd was one of the best.
im 42 now,my Father would listen to 70s British Rock,Black Sabbath,Led Zep,including Pink Floyd,i grew up listening to this.
Such an amazing band.
Glad my dad was in Golden age of music
Glad to have you on board
Greetings from Perth,Western Australia
Born in England haha
Best country for Hard Rock!
They have a drummer and a percussionist. It’s the percussionist that is standing and jumping
Pink Floyd as a band would create things in studio that would need multiple musicians to pull off live.
Most bands bring backing musicians with them on tour, they just rarely get the spotlight.
David Gilmour wasnt greedy about sharing the stage and brought the session players out of the shadows and into the spotlight.
Dave bought an Antique Aircraft museum which he later sold. Stacey they will not make you cry all the time. Production next " One of These Days" outdoors they had to get FAA clearance for lasers. Seen many interviews with Dave he is very laid back person. Wife Polly has said is some what an introvert, speaks 4 language. Also Polly said he can answer a ? on the guitar better than speaking. Polly wrote lyrics on some Floyd and 90% of his solo work. Dave does the music first gives it to Polly and she does the lyrics
I am still always amazed how every single second, every single moment of this 3 hour concert was pure perfection! Even the moves of the background singers were choreographed and perfectly in sync!
You Must review when you can , The Moody Blues epic Nights in White Satin on RUclips ( Official Live video ) where they play with the London Festival Orchestra .This takes arguably one of the best singles of the 60's, to new heights , and I am predicting will have you in tears for its magnificence and beauty !
I love this song. It was the first brand new song I got to experience from Pink Floyd after I started listening to them. I’ve seen them twice in concert and would go again in a second if there was a chance.
Last comment lol.
Nick Mason is the original drummer for Floyd. Hes the older gentleman, seated at the traditional drum kit.
I forget the other guys name, but he's what yoyd call a percussionist. His job is to add color and flavor and play parts and sounds to compliment what Nick is playing.
The Animals album should be your next listen. The guitar solos are epic along with great bass and keyboards.
Tim Renwick is a phenomenal backing guitar player
Estamos salvados, porque los jóvenes aprecian la música de calidad de hace mucho tiempo. Gracias Stacey 😊
Great reaction Stacey as always, can't wait to see your reaction to "Brain Damage + Eclipse" studio version. These will change your live forever as well
I'm 73 years old. I grew up playing the guitar and still do everyday. It is so refreshing to see your take on Pink Floyd. It helps me be enthusiastic along with you. To see someone be introduced to Floyd is very entertaining.. You're very insightful. and well spoken.. I remember when dark side of the moon came. out when I was in college. A friend told me about this album and said you've got to come to my house and listen to this.. This was back in the day of blue light posters. Etcetera.. We were all hippies back then. We indulged in a little herb. and then listened to this masterpiece. We were blown away.. Pink Floyd still blows me away every time I listen to them.
Delicate sound of thunder- yet another movie. Go ahead, it's brilliant
Someone once mentioned he looked like the guy that just fixed your toilet.I would say his smile is totally authentic. I'm 70 & saw them first in 1970 & went to see them a dozen times in at least 7 different cities. Actually lost a good job because I didn't come back from a festival for a week & to this day not really sure why. New sub, like your style.I also love cats, have 3 & they beat up my 180 lb. rott.
I heard a commentor once say about David, 'He gets on stage dressed like a plumber and blows the world away' 🤣😂😅
I grew up with Deep Purple and Pink Floyd. Now that I'm almost 73, I can only advise you. If you have the opportunity to see Pink Floyd live again, go and see them. Not only is the music brilliant, but also the light show.
You know why I got back here to see your reaction again? :) Just because when the drummer jumps - you're having so charming smile and laughter :)
You've already heard "Echoes" by Pink Floyd in the Live in Pompeii version. Now it's time for the same song in the Live in Gdansk version, the last time it was ever played. This version takes the experience of communing with this music to a whole new level. Especially the outro. I've listened to it hundreds of times and always have tears in my eyes.
Hi Stacey. Another wonderfully fun Pink Floyd reaction video! I love your excitement and insight into Floyd. Thank you for the smiles. 😊
Tim Renwick played lead guitar for this song, while David took a back seat instrumentally and played rhythm guitar. The part of the light show for this song that I loved was when the solid white lights came on at the beginning of the second verse and shone across the crowd like the landing lights of a giant plane headed in to land among them. My wife bought me the DVD of this concert for Christmas one year, and the first time I saw that part of the light show while watching it I felt like my heart was standing still for the first half of that verse.
Watching Stacy giggle every time the percussionist jumped to hit the cymbals above him made me crack up. 🤣🤣
I'm fifty four years old
A long long time ago
We used to go to the hayden planetarium in new york city
Pay five bucks
Go into that big dome room
Beforehand we may of Indulged in some extra curricular activities
The lights would go out
And they would have lasers going on to the pink floyd music
And for by an hour
You went on an awesome trip
Yeah the good old days
Been to 2 of their concerts... of all concerts I've seen.... they are the most memoravble.
I saw this tour and it was so incredible! The light show was so amazing and the music was awesome!
You might recall the percussion guy from „High hopes“, where he meticulously hits the „Divison bell“ on the 4th beat of each bar - and does other stuff in between.
I don't travel much, but when someone starts going on about their trip to Europe I tell them I saw Pink Floyd live, just to shut it down. On this song you could FEEL and SMELL the humidity and air changing as they pumped in the smoke for the "above the clouds" affect. Religion.
Watch it, Stacey! From beginning to end. (Pulse Concert)
It's one of if not the greatest concerts you will ever witness.
Hey, I wouldn't lie to you! 😊😊👍👍 I love your reactions.
As usual, excellent reaction to an excellent band.
Have a great weekend!
David smiles and looks into the cameras a lot in the "One Of These Days" from the same Pulse concert - so you might enjoy it as well
I just love the fact that you've discovered Pink Floyd......I often say to myself that this music is why our generation was so chill. I get excited every time I see you are going to do another one. I really think you would love the entire Dark side of the Moon album. It's not a "concept" album but there isn't a bad song on it.
Saturday's with Stacey & Pink Floyd, love it!!!!!
Saw them in 94 . Division Bell tour. Columbus OH. They opened with this song. Just as the song started a jet flew low over the stadium. Pre arranged of course but cool as hell!!
They smile because they know they are nailing it.
they smile cause Rogers gone.
Saturday! Staceyreactionday yeah!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Floyd is one of if not the only band where you can hear all of the instruments all of the time, some are more prominent than others at times as you would expect where it is required, but you only need to listen and you can hear, and another thing is that David isn't greedy he often let's the other guitarist take the lead, you will also notice it in ' Another Brick in the Wall prt 2 ' .
You know you keep saying that you don’t know anything about music but I’ve been listening to them for roughly 55 years and you sum them up as good as anyone I’ve heard.
I saw this tour in Hockenhein, Germany. 100,00 people. Mind was blown
"Learning To Fly" always like this one. Thx Stacey!! And yes this concert never disappoints! Rock on.
Can’t wait to see your reactions to “Keep Talking” and “One of These Days” when you see David play instruments you may have never seen played before. The Pulse concert is full of gems!
Was one the first CDs I got when CDs were brand new. Only "Hey you" missing now, maybe with a shirt? :D
Thank you, Stacy for taking me down memory lane with each Pink Floyd "Pulse" reaction you share, it was truly an amazing experience from beginning to end. Please do more, love this!!! 😊
This song is from the first album Floyd released after the departure of Roger Waters. At the time they were recording, both David and drummer Nick Mason were working to qualify for their pilot's licenses, literally "Learning to Fly." The recorded dialog in the middle of the song, though it's hard to hear (deliberately), is Nick Mason going through a pre-flight check.
This song was always amazing, then an inspiration through my flight training, and now as a pilot it still hits me in the feels :)
For yourself you should just watch the official video for this song. Back when MTV used to give video awards I'm not sure if they still do but official video for learning to fly won for video of the year! It's a beautifully filmed video as you would expect and I think you would enjoy it!!!
Listen to the first album "Piper At The Gates Of Dawn" ------- and the story of Syd Barrett. "See Emily Play" and "Bike" are Pink Floyd classics..... Syd Barrett was PF's original guitarist and vocalist. A visionary musician/songwriter.....
I only discovered your channel a few hours ago but omg i love all your reactions ive seen so far, pink floyd has been my favourite band for a few years im OBSSESED with them, 2 songs i would love to see you react too are keep talking from their pulse concert and my fav two suns in the sunset on their final cut album which is my favourite album of all time. Im glad i came across your channel, you are great.
David's smile, agree 💯
@StaceyRPG I knew you would have fun again with drummer Gary Wallis' jumping!!! Pulse is a concert that marked an era and for me the best of all!! A big hug to you! 😁👏👏🔰🔰🔰
Life would be so boring without knowing Pink Floyd, just think if you never had heard that first Pink Floyd song, man what you would have missed.
Even the poppiest song of their catalogue comes over so powerful in this concert. I know, because I saw them when the song came out 6-7 years earlier.
And if you all think that this stage lighting was ahead of its time - they did it already in the 80s! Their shows didn't only attract fans at that time but especially people who wanted to see the biggest light show ever done. I was in a big stadium in Basel with more than 60'000 people and the sun was setting on a clear day. The organizers asked: who came for the music? - YEAH! And who came for the light show? - YEEEAAAAAHHHHH!... Okay, for me that was a disappointment, but that shows the impact of their live shows at that time.
Already in 65-69 they were ahead of their time inventing projected psychedelic lightpatterns, pre-recoded sounds like seagulls screaming and quadrophonic surround sounds. Sometimes they even were interrupting songs like Fat Old Sun or Cymbaline to drink tea on stage or did some horror elements in the dark. I was not born yet, even though I am old, but it would have been such an experience to see a gig of them at that time (like it is for you and your generation to see the concerts we saw when we were young like Pulse).
i have yet to see another band that has been able to perform live, flawlessly for over 3 hours and still have the same energy at the end as they do at the beginning while smiling and having fun start to finish. Concerts these days are 3hrs long including an hour of warm-up acts. No one can captivate you like Pink Floyd, the jeans and t-shirt are perfect because David Gilmore only needs a guitar to expressive himself and entrap his audience... not some theatrical suit like every act seems to do these days. loving the Floyd journey. Thanks for letting us tag along 😘😘
