Roger Waters' "The Wall" - 06/06/12 10:41 AM
So...
The music of Pink Floyd was hugely influential on me - 'have been essentially a life-long fan. For whatever reason, I never had the opportunity, time, money or what have you to see them play live.
However, and despite having less-than-ideal seats at the Joe Louis Arena last night, I managed to (finally) see "The Wall" live.
I spent a great deal of the show sitting in both utter amazement as well as stunned silence. This was part theater, part multi-media, part sub-culture, part topical politics, but above all...some truly great and passionate music, expertly performed and staged.
Those of you who have heard / seen the shoiw can probably relate...but to those of you who may be sitting on the fence about going...take my advice - GO SEE THIS SHOW.
Simply indescribable.
