| Re: Newspaper reviews of Waters gigs I agree - I don't see the point of critics. If you aren't a fan of the performer or their style of music stay away.
As a huge Waters fan, the 3 performances I saw in the UK were magic, I was absolutely overwhelmed by the quality of the performance. The reception he received from the fans showed the admiration we have for Roger and his talent. I was so pleased that the solo work was received as enthusiastically by the fans as the Floyd material.
For those who moan and groan that Chester and Snowy aren't David Gilmour - of course they aren't, but they are first class musicians who gave the songs a fresh sound.
Those who say that Floyd do a grander scale show are missing the point - Roger has tired of the big production and is concentrating on the music. Personally, I thought the light show was very classy.
Cheers
