Absolutely AMAZING band, some of the best musicians about, Guy Pratt would be proud of the guy on the bass! And to think that Paul Giamatti is so talented in this area too - mindblowing. Cheers

@acidbass Thank you for the comment, although I'm a little puzzled as to why Paul Giamatti the actor should be mentioned once again. Maybe it's an in joke in Northern Ireland?

[britfloydshow]

@professionalsbelfast Who's Paul Giamatti? The guitarists in Brit Floyd are Damian Darlington and Bobby Harrison.

Guys, this is literally mind-blowing. Practically indistinguishable from the PULSE version of LTF. Just awesome. Thanks for posting, and look forward to the North American tour.

I'm gonna take a shower and just sit and wait.

Division bell was the first Album I got to listen and It took me into PF world.then It was SORROW that blew my mind away and I got A momentary Lapse ... album.

I'm really happy that I'm not one of those who Like roger or David alone.They were part of one revolution called PF.When I first saw PULSE show I was disappointed not to see Roger up there!! but I noticed that David has managed to be the great gig in the show.I love both of them.

THEY ARE MASTERS OF ROCK

@TristanMech You might not be giving yourself enough credit -- you seem more well-informed than many people I know, especially since you don't consider yourself a huge fan.

"Learning to Fly" is a great tune, and probably my favorite PF song from the post-Waters era.

As much as I love Floyd, you're right - very little room for improv. The songs are very structured. Good point, Tristan.

@dufortrph

No, not at all, i'm not a huge fan, nor am i very well informed about them.

Like many people, though, i'm addicted to the pulse show, it was a unique musical experience.

And Learning to Fly happens to be my favourite track from Pulse, so i can recognise every little variant detail on this one.

About my initial comment, the only douchy thing (hopefully) would be the f word. I am just trying to communicate my frustration on the fact that PF never really dared to improvise.

Peace

[dufortrph]

@TristanMech I agree with what you're saying, and you sound like you're a VERY well-informed PF fan (I'm being serious). I just thought you kind of made your point in a douchey way. If I did the same, I apologize. Peace.

[TristanMech]

@dufortrph

Am i to take that as a compliment or as a smart-ass comment (which i don't really get, to be honest) ?

Do we agree or not here?

[dufortrph]

@TristanMech I'm guessing that you're a TON of fun at parties, aren't you?
