I've been watching it pretty closely. No appearance yet. There is some speculation that he might show up at Madison Square Garden this week.

I hope he shows up in St. Louis or Tacoma WA. That's where I will be.

I am sure you'll hear about in less than hour after it happens,
or when you wake up in the morning.

I am seeing The Wall at Long Island's Nassau Coliseum. While that may seem like an unlikely place, there is some Pink Floyd history there. Besides Pink Floyd recording 1 or 2 live albums there, it was one of only 2 venues in America where the original Wall shows were staged.

I was under the impression that Gilmour was more than likely going to show up at one of the O2 shows in London. Did I miss something?

I do believe Gilmour lives in London,so why not show up there.
Why fly half around the world to play a guitar solo?

I would venture a guess that one of these shows (if not more than one) is being video'd for a future DVD release. Wouldn't surprise me if whatever show that is, is the one Gilmour shows up at. And that, I would think, is most likely to occur in London, their own turf. Gilmour recorded Remember That Night at the Royal Albert Hall. Not that one has anything to do with the other.

Roger said he promised to play a show, which I took as meaning more than one song as Water's had done at least three songs with him for that charity gig.. I don't know if it will be three songs only or all the Floyd material.

it will likely only be one song which will be comfortably numb. now i could see him doing one show in america and one in london. that would be cool.

From Rollingstone.com

After years of discord, Pink Floyd's Roger Waters and David Gilmour are apparently on the road to reconciliation. After playing a short set together last weekend at a benefit for the Hoping Foundation in Oxfordshire, England, the duo plan to reunite at least once more, performing "Comfortably Numb" at one to-be-determined stop on Waters' upcoming tour celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Wall. In a post on his Facebook wall, Waters detailed the back-and-forth exchange that resulted in the reunion.

I'm going to the Nov 8th show in Philadelphia, and am looking forward to it. Would love for this to be THE show.....but I'm not counting on it. As I said before, I'd think London, or maybe NY.

I'll be at the Philly show on Nov. 11. I doubt it will be one of the Philly shows but who knows.

Saw it here in Long Island last week. No Gilmour obviously, but it was one of the best concerts I've seen in a really long time.
If you're on the fence about going, GO.

Good to hear that. As I've said before, I'm more of a Gilmour fan (probably because of his guitar work, and frankly, I think he sounds great singing, even if he is aging and becoming more "grizzled" sounding. I'm a fan of Floyd, so I'm looking forward to this show.

I've been reading some smack on-line, where some have been complaining about some pre-recorded "support" being incorporated into the performance. I'm not talking about the change clinking on "Money" for example, but rather, vocal and instrument fills. What were your thoughts on this - did you notice that?

Also, was any music outside of the Wall performed, and if so, pony up please.

Well, this answers my question on the other thread. Never heard this before. Terrific. I'm looking foward to The Wall show in November. Signing off soon. Have to take my kids to the local Halloween parade (GAWD), then the Phillies fight for their lives tonight.

Cannot wait for the show in Philly in Nov. Found the following from Floyd's Delicate Sound of Thunder on YouTube. His solo from "On the Turning Away" may be Gilmour's best moment (well really, he has many) aside from Comfortably Numb.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbWvUaVXRew

Now, I'm REALLY juiced to see Gilmour join Waters. I'd have to believe that no matter when it occur, it would become part of a DVD at some point. Assuming it does happens, it will be the last time they play together.

Froy, do you have this live album to your collection? Or Pulse, for that matter.

5 days and counting. Can't wait. Hey Beardie, is it The Wall only, or are any other Floyd/Waters classics included?

It was just the Wall, a couple of songs were extended a bit with extra guitar solo's, plus it has a 20 minute intermission between album sides.
I really want to see this again, I wish I had enough scratch for the Garden show on Sat.

I saw the show last week in St. Louis and will catch it again in Tacoma in December. Words can't describe it.

Don't miss this show!

Well, I can tell you he didn't show up in Philly (at least not night 1 anyway). TERRIFIC show though. Wow. And Waters sounded fine. A dizzying array of technology. 25 video projectors, 130 speakers, and a 66 member stage crew. Impressive. Explains why the tickets were so expensive. Had floor seats about 14 rows back. The stinkin' pig almost landed on me.

Good time. I'd suggest this show if coming to your town.

I saw Gilmour's Floyd during the Division Bell Tour at the Oakland Coliseum in 94. . Since I'll probably never get to see David and Roger on stage together at the same time I really need to pony up the cash to see Water's show when he comes to Staples.

You suck. I desperately wanted to go to that show in Philly, but it was the year I got married (same stinkin' month, as I remember). Thus, not two nickels to rub together. Told the wife "We'll catch them next time". 16 years later, I had to "settle" for Waters. You should go. I tell you, you will regret not doing so.

BTW, what was your impression of the Division Bell Tour. I have the PULSE DVD (from that tour), which I like quite a bit. I do think I like Gilmour's "Remember That Night", and "Gdansk" better.
