Thanks for all the responses of welcome, and the info about Hope.. If I can figure a way to go, and the $$ to get there and back, I might try to get there. It sounds like a blast... 

[All you Pink Floyd fans . . .]

 

 

I wish I had the pleasure of seeing Pink Floyd while I was older. While on a trip to Europe in in 1988 (I was 5), they were playing a concert in Versailles, right after Momentary Lapse of Reason was released. I remember being able to hear them through the window of my uncle's apartment.  I did see Roger Waters twice though- on the In the Flesh tour in 2001 ish, and when he played Dark Side in it's entirety- I forget the tour name.

 

Anyone have any thoughts on Australian Pink Floyd? They were pretty amusing, too. For those who never saw PF live.

took my sons to see the dark side show. except for his ignorant political views it was great.

Agreed. Stick to the music.

 

 

I was just told by a close friend, that he saw Pink Floyd in1977 at Soldier Field in Chicago. On the "Animals" tour-I believe. See, we aren't few and far between after all...

Yep. I was in the Navy. I was in Hospital Corps A school at Great Lakes. A bunch of us when to that concert.  It was the Animals Tour. At the show I saw, the pig didn't get loose... I was first exposed to Floyd with "UmmaGumma"! In fact I still have a copy. On CD now, not vinyl. I have been a fan ever since. I have not heard Endless River yet, but plan to get it soon!

Thanks for the welcome, everyone... Yeah, Gen is right.. I can get a bit sarcastic. She knows me, we have done some theater together. I do know a bit about music, I Dj'd a small rock station  in the Midwest a millennium ago! I was born in the 50's and grew up on Rock and Roll. I do enjoy other forms of music. I like what I see here,and plan to stick around. I doubt if I will wear a tie.. Sometimes I might wear nothing...

 

What, where and when (besides April) is Hope?

 

Thanks for letting me in! 

 

Mike
