From the Monterrey Mexico Show
March 2nd 2007


From: J. A. Soto
I just got back from the magnificent concert with Roger and the boys/girls here in Monterrey. The venue was a soccer stadium, and you can say there was maybe more than 25,000 people, I have to say that in a soccer game the available seats are around 43,000, but for THIS concert they were selling tickets just in selected zones of the stadium, of course the field (it was full) and the seats on both sides (I think 90% full). The organizers said before the show that they expected at least 18,000 people so 25,000 is a very good number I think.

And I can say from the remarks of many after the show, and the look in the faces of the people in their way out, this was an unforgettable show, a perfect show because of the quality of the musicians and singers and the quality of the light and sound system. The surround sound was simply superb.

What I admire the most in Roger is the high degree of professionalism in his shows, the band never get lazy in the executions of the songs, even in the difficult ones and it«s the same with the audio and light show. I have never seen something like that, I have seen in video concerts of ÒPink FloydÓ without Roger and even with all the lasers and circular screens, simply they don«t deliver in the same way.

I have seen the In the Flesh Live in DVD many times, and as good as it is, I think this new show is better. First, because they play all the songs from the album Dark Side of the Moon, and second, because this is a bigger production, from the high resolution giant screen, to the surround sound, and the pyrotechnics, etc. Maybe Doyle Bramhall is a better fit for the band than Kilminster, but I'm not complaining...

There were too many highlights in the show, the response of the audience (with a lot of young people) was great all the time, especially for all Dark Side and the encore of Another Brick in the Wall, Vera and Confortably Numb. Roger seemed very pleased all night long, and the girls too. At the end of the show, Snowy and Kilminster were having fun trading solos in Confortably Numb.

Personally I was very pleased listening to Sheep, Time, Us and Them and all the songs in the encore.

Classic songs, great musicians and singers, first class sound and lights. An awesome concert! Thank you Roger for a very special night, and comeback soon! We all know that you are Pink...
