Why is it the fan video recordings of Pink Floyd shows end up sooo much better than the professional ones?!? The films don't even flicker on this, and you can see how the lighting rigs moved around above the band. Great camera work and you got most of the best parts of the show! This has truly got to be one of the biggest unknown video gems unearthed of Pink Floyd....
That is amzing. Thank you so much for uploading this. A bit of a Holy Grail for Floyd fanatics! I can't believe you were priveledged enough to stand and watch this. Lucky man!!!
MalHyams, are there anymore Roger comments like the ones about the sound being too fucking loud ? All of this would be great for us Floydians. Cheers.
I filmed this on a steam powered VHS. I had tenancy of Earls Court until midnight on the day they rehearsed. I was told not to film, I told them if I can't film, they cant have the hall until midnight!!
this is amazing my uncle went 2 da august da 8th show got da ticket here

It's most likely to be Earl's Court's rehearsals on August 1st, 1980.

"Sounds pretty fucking loud to me! We're trying to entertain them, Chazz (? sound engineering?), not kill 'em"
then he says something like
"little bit more of david's che boom" and means the sound of Gilmour's guitar or something :D

Great video! Go to search, type in Roger Waters rants (5 part series) of Roger so hilariously yelling at the fucking idiots.

Thanks very much Mal, this is a pure gem, its looking good for a 27 year old tape.
And POTW is a great idea, it is for the fans and is totally non-profit, unlike the people who sell on ebay.
