| Re: Pink Floyd at Live 8 Hi, all. Long-time lurker signing on. Hope you'll welcome me and my words to the APFFN.
Well, I haven't had chills running up and down my spine like that since my first show, on the DSOTM tour here in San Diego all those years ago.
One word: wonderful. Just seeing Roger up with those guys again literally brought a tear to my eye. Even though David looked pretty tense through "Breathe" and "Money," I actually caught a glimpse of him smiling later, and Waters was undeniably stoked from the first note.
But WHO IN THE H*LL is the idiot producer at MTV Networks who figured it'd be a great idea to interrupt this thing so those two mooks could yakk about how wonderful this reunion was ? Yeah...so great you're freakin WRECKIN' the end...bunch a fargin' iceholes. Unbelievable. And THEN, they cut to a commercial before the end of the set. I hear there were going to be fireworks...sigh.
I swear on all that is holy I'll NEVER again watch a second of ANY MTV-related channel...ever.
Sorry for the rant for my initial post here, but I'd guess there are others who'd agree.
