Was originally going to say that it was a recording of the show from the 25th May that was simulcast to cinemas, but it says it was the 24th Prague concert.

Looks like its a mix of pro shot and crowd footage resulting in the audio being totally out of sink with the video in places.

Also its edited out Rogers response to the Anne Frank and Nazi leather coat controversy.


There's also a Roger Waters thread currently on the second page. https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Been over to the other topic that I was already aware of

Noticed that you contributed to the topic but forgot to mention how the streaming of the concert was

No....I don't mean video quality from the server.....Was Roger Waters as good as ever?

It was excellent.

I had planned on giving this tour a miss. As I usually get tickets for Manchester gigs, but it was a weekend gig this time, so would have cost me a fortune in taking the night off work, ticket cost etc. So was glad when the cinema screening was announced.

The only problem really was trying to get the balance right between close up of the band and the the images on the big screens. The screens play such a big part in the shows. Defiantly worth seeing it. I assume this will be the what’s released on dvd/blu-ray.

Anyway, the day after I had a look at what other dates he was performing and got a re-sale ticket (face value) for the NIA in Birmingham on the following Wednesday. First time I’ve been there and it wasn’t to bad, although due to traffic heading in from the motorway ( train strike?) I only got in about 15mins before scheduled start, but it was delayed 15mins.

Glad I saw it live.

Much appreciated

I envy you, there's no chance of me seeing a live concert

Am looking forward to the DVD as that's the closest I'll get to the real thing
