I was lucky to be put on the guest list for Rodger Waters at Earls Court courtesy of the Afghan who has been changing light bulbs for him on his latest European tour. What a tour to work on, Mr Waters has been performing Dark Side Of The Moon in its entirety. I was lucky enough to catch Rodger & his band perform this at Hyde Park last summer and to find out he was touring the same show and to be offered a couple of tickets I had to go.
The journey down there was a bit of a mission, train lines being worked on and alternate routes to be made, thanks London Underground for making my journey to and from Earls Court easy, NOT!!!.
i was a little late and missed the start but in time to catch the performance of Dark Side Of The Moon, the show was fantastic, as soon as the crowd heard the start of Speak To Me, tensions rose and people started standing up and moving to the front, me being already at the front didn’t need to move.
The whole performance was great as was Mr Waters band which included the likes of Snowy White and Andy Fairweather Low guitar maestro’s of 70′s & 80′s, one of his backing vocalists was PP Arnold of First Cut Is The Deepest fame and one of Ike and Tina Turners Ikets, his son Harry was on Keyboards, and on Drums for the Performance of Dark Side Of The Moon was Nick Mason. Wow what a gig.
Waters does it again and again.Rodger waters for world president.He knows all about how we dont need another self rightsous rocking roll star caught with his pants down and money sticking out of his hole.Go on rodger give them it and tell them we dont need no more nothing we dont need it anyway….
