Pink Floyd - One Slip (Live At The Oakland Coliseum, April 22nd 1994)

[antster1983]

A real shame this wasn't played more on the tour. This could even have made the PULSE DVD on the Bootlegging the Bootleggers segment sitting comfortably (numb)* alongside that other rarity which made it to the DVD - Marooned.

*Apologies for the incredibly bad joke.

I was there , I lived in Stockton at the time . I waited in line for 24 hours to get the tikets . The disco ball was on a crane , and it was bigger than my house !

[292559a5]

who's the bass player? looks like chicago bass player,does any body knows.

[jaruel37]

@292559a5 It's Guy Pratt! He hasn't ever been in Chicago.

[RyanWehr]

@jaruel37 Guy Pratt played with david gilmour at the rosemont theater. its when Mr gilmour did his on an island tour.  Guy also played at solder field on the division bell tour

[jaruel37]

@RyanWehr someone mentioned Guy was in the band Chicago, not the city. I'm sorry what I was referring to wasn't entirely clear.

I was there, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay up there, way way up there.

[195511SM]

I attended 2 of these Oakland shows back to back. Hmmmm....the memory is a bit fuzzy. I'll have to dig out my ticket stubs.........Stood in line for over 36 hours for the first show & by some miracle, obtained tix for the 2nd nite thru a radio station. I'm pretty sure they did at least 3 shows. Saw them 3 times on their Momentary Lapse tour & Gilmour's solo About Face tour sometime prior to 1986. Hmmmm........I wonder why the memories are so cloudy........

[pukejet]

@195511SM they did do three shows however where I bought tix they had a lottery system so it did'nt matter how long you stood in line...I got VERY lucky!!!

[Thearmgame]

I much prefer this performance compared to their 1987-1989 tours. That tour lacked the same emotion of the 94 one in my opinion. Thanks very much for this rare performance.

[turbovanman]

@Thearmgame

I disagree, I saw them in 87 and nothing compares, I was ruined for life, lol.

[Thearmgame]

@turbovanman

Lucky man.

I saw Roger this year, now any other concert I see will fail in comparison. I'm ruined too.

[UnkleDay]

I attended this very show.

Thanks for the memories

[SilverTounge85]

Thank you for commenting. You are very lucky as well to have experienced Pink Floyd Live, and this was a special show since they did 'One Slip', which was the only time during the tour in 1994 they did it. Some fans claim they never did it in 1994 and that this video is fake, but it's not. I saw the band playing 'Marooned' in Norway 1994, as a protest against whale killing. They only did that song the nights they played in Norway. It was captured on the PULSE dvd in the bonus section.

@SilverTounge85 they played this at arter finley stadium in NC, I saw the show and it will always be the greatest live show ever

[Lzndr]

@SilverTounge85 : I was at the 4/20/94 and 4/22/94 shows in Oakland... This is no fake. Given the massive size of the production, I wasn't expecting any variance in the setlists, so when they added this to the set, it was a nice surprise. This was filmed pretty close to where I was sitting too... I was a couple of sections closer.

@SilverTounge85 what they have marooned on the pulse dvd? are u sure?

[SilverTounge85]

@yngvae2 Check the 'Bootlegging the bootleggers' bonus section on the PULSE dvd.

[thedoomguru]

@SilverTounge85 Actually they did One Slip twice on this tour to my knowledge. Look at the final show they ever did to close the tour done in Earls Court on 1994-10-29. They fit One Slip in between Keep Talking, and Coming Back To Life on that one. I doubt very highly that anyone has the video for that though, however I would LOVE to see that.

[SilverTounge85]

@thedoomguru Sorry, that is wrong. Both Jon Carin and Guy Pratt, I've talked to Guy personally, has said that 'One Slip' was only done once. They had rehearsed the song before one of the Oakland concerts, and decided to go ahead with it.

'One Slip' is mentioned in one of those PF books that shows the setlists to most of their concerts since the 70's to the 90's, and it is mentioned that it was done twice, but it is wrong. Same book claims that 'Lost For Words' was played "8 or 9-times.".

[SilverTounge85]

@thedoomguru And the band only performed 'Lost For Words' 5 times during the tour. 4 times during the US leg, and once at Earls Court, not "8 or 9 times". 2 of the touring bandmembers have confirmed it was only once they did it, infront of an audience that is. I have the audio bootleg of the very last show, and they didn't do that song. As I said, there are sloppy authors out there, that has either been misled about the true setlist, or is making it up, and there are wrong tracklists on bootlegs

[thedoomguru]

@SilverTounge85 Yeah I thought that could be the case. That's why I said to my knowledge. Could be hopeful thinking on my part. In that case that is a pretty lousy bootlegger if they can't even identify the song right. One Slip has a very unique sound compared to some of the songs on The Division Bell. On the positive note though it did make it much more climactic doing it one time. Admittedly that would have been a great bang for the ending gig. You talked to guy though? Thats cool :)

[SilverTounge85]

@thedoomguru No worries! :) Yes, it's often labelled on the back cover of bootlegs. 'One Slip' has been misidentified as 'One Of These Days', and 'Lost For Words' as 'Poles Apart' or 'Coming Back To Life', that's why so many think they were played more that they actually was, that and the combination of sloppy research from various Floyd authors unfortunatly. In 1994, they did the "hits" from 'A Momentary Lapse Of Reason', plus the climax number, 'Sorrow'. In 1987-89 'One Slip' was a hit too...

[sigma6PinFloyd]

Holy shit this is awasome! So perfectly. Gilmour at his best!!

[RafaelParisTube]

The Best Song of Pink Floyd EVER!

[fakesolid]

Thank you so much for uploading this, ive been looking for it a lot, btw, is this the only song of this concert that you have the video? because the sound and image are really good

[SilverTounge85]

This is THE real deal! People saying that hey never did this song, that this is fake etc. can stick their head in the ground and ignore the facts. Pink Floyd truly did 'One Slip' in 1994, and here is the proof.
