The musicianship, sound, visual
quality and sheer creativity of it was just brilliant. I loved the fact that the
solos were all as you knew them to be, but everything seemed just as fresh and
evenmore powerfulthan the originals.
I was very lucky to go witha friend and my 17 year old daughter to the show
last night. We were absolutely blown away, and I was so proud that my daughter
couldexperiencethe same music and lyricsthat had been a key part of my own
development when I was just a bit older than her.
My husband remembers, when he was social secretary at Stirling University in the early seventies, that he had booked Pink Floyd before the release of Dark Side of the Moon. By the time of the gig, they had become big, but not only turned up at the tiny hall as promised, but apparently did a completely full-on set, with again, fantastic visuals. And they were also just really nice and not at all snooty, unlike a certain Mr. E. John, who was booked in similar circumstances!
The only tiny negative comments I would have about last night was a) after being in a smoke free zone- Scotland -for a year, it came as a pretty big shock to be all fumed up again, ( and see people being drink-sick inside the arena), and b) the static nature of the audience - I don't know if this is normal at a MEN gig, (not living in Manchester), or because of the stewards, but my instinct is to jump around,and it was a bit frustrating not being able to do so!
Anyway,rock on Roger andthewonderful band - I wonder if he could be pursuaded
to run for World Leader- to hell with national poiitics.

All I can say is STUNNING you are all in for a reall ride one of the most amazing shows I've seen in the last
30 years!!

It amazed me how popular he is, Roger is the same age as my father and can still put on a performance like that!!
He is a genius!!!!!!!
No review of the concert can do justice to the sheer brilliance of ALL the musicians involved (not forgetting the lighting and special effects guys aswell!). This truly was an amazing night, and I hope Roger knows just how much he is loved by his fans in the North West of England and world wide.
To Michael, the fan club president - Thank you for taking the time and trouble to honour the genius and
legend that is Roger Waters.
Kindest regards to you.
