Wow - so tempting to travel to Germany next summer to see The Wall there.
How cool would that be? I've never been to Germany and have always wanted to go - this could be just the reason and excuse I need!

I'm thinking of it now because Waters just emailed me about a new concert added in Munich in June, at the Olympiahalle. That would be a great place to see it!

Drool drool...

3. Just saw it in Dallas Sunday night. Fantastic show!
Of course, there's even a greater meaning in seeing it in Germany.

4. Yeah, saw it a while ago - incredible show.
My friend and I, both of us theater and music types, decided that it was awesome theater - not so much a concert, since the band wasn't really the focus, but a theatrical event. And a damn good one. (not that one is better than the other; but that this might be the first time a band has taken the concept of 'stage show' and pushed it into theater.)

I still relive the concert occasionally in my mind, images come back to me, sounds and video and the overall sense-overload of the whole evening.

The Comfortably Numb solo will live in my head forever - holy crap! Loud as hell, screaming awesomeness, and then that point at the end that Waters walks up to the wall and makes a smashing movement and the video explodes bricks in multi-color phantasms... holy shit!
