Hi, I'd like to use a few seconds of this video that you were kind enough to share to include in a ‘fan footage edit’. I hope you don't mind. Cheers! (and I was there!)
Musician Neil Young “I’d like to start with a kind of a quiet song,” Neil Young mutters, having popped up unannounced at a Leon Redbone/Ry Cooder gig at NYC’s Bottom Line in May of 1974. “It’s called, um … it’s called … ‘Citizen Kane Jr. Blues.'” So begins one of Young’s most famous bootlegs, during which he debuts several tracks from the then-unreleased On The Beach, instructs the audience on how to make honey slides (a potent marijuana + honey combo) and generally blows the minds of every single person present.Still officially unreleased, “Citizen Kane Jr. Blues” - later retitled “Pushed It Over The End” - is one of Neil’s doomiest creations, a minor key dirge detailing the exploits of a mysterious femme fatale. “Good lookin’ Milly” seems to be a Patty Hearst-inspired anti-heroine (“a gun in her hand, but she don’t know how to use it”) who by the final verse has fallen into something even more dangerous: politics. As played that night, the song is fully formed, perfectly presented - a classic performance prized by Shakey fanatics -- taken from aquarium drunkard .com
Call him nuts, political, narcissistic. I call foul on all that sht. All I can see here is that the son of a bitch did it! He wrote the lion’s share of it all and holds the right to do whatever he pleases. I’m a huge Floyd fan! What’s not to like here! What a production!
Is there any music made anywhere that is as unique, innovative and unmatched as The Cure? The older I get the more I seriously listen and this is some of the most moving music I personally hear.
Roger should've taken his show to "Dismaland", the dystopic alter-ego of "Disneyland" in the U.K. Imagining "Have a Cigar" or "Dogs" played live with that dismantled, decaying Disney castle sends shivers down my spine.
I went to this show....fan from early 80s. Floor seat. Which i usually dont do, splurged. Bummed out when 4 people in.front of me made it impossible to see most of the time. You dont want to be a b*tch but you wanna see!!! Sometimes i might say something but everyone wad having such a good time i didnt say anything. I hate to say it but i didnt even see the whole show it was just impossible. I feel so bad about it. I know this sounds stupid. I was expecting the crowd to be a bit more chill i mean not jumping around. Whatever Next time front rows only, my usual. ❤❤❤❤
Going to the 3 shows at MSG really made me appreciate the new songs more... So much intensity and emotion. And I got thrills every night when after the long intro where he was pacing across the stage, Robert started singing....
you are very lucky seeing as that was the last time they played Another (Happy) Birthday. I was so sure we'd get it one of there 3 nights here in NY and we got nothing. I suppose people might be happy about Grinding Halt and Jumping Someone Else's Train, but I've seen those before... I never saw AHB or A Thousand Hours and they didn't play those.
@@sols9449 Disagree. Even just comparing these shows to the 3 MSG shows in 2016, these recent shows fell short, not to mention something like July 23rd 1992... These were in no way bad performances, but there's no way these could be counted among the best.
Everyone has their own impressions and emotional reactions. I adored those shows in 2016; these newer ones in 2022-2023 were different, but no less intense, just curtailed time-wise and the setlists were not as interesting, perhaps. But that did not in any way detract from the passion and dynamism portrayed by the best band that ever existed, and that ever will exist. @@tylerskiss
I love it too. My new favorite might be Endsong though... but they are about the same subjects: loneliness, getting old, time passed by, loved ones lost along the way.
It's almost impossible to appreciate the magnitude of a Waters gig when you're there! It's so iconic with the Pink Floyd stuff, the sound is awesome, the music is amazing and the show was so unique with that screen and stage set up, there were no bad seats. Such an event!
