Prince may have gotten $4.8 million to play Coachella, but poor Roger Waters left the festival without his signature inflatable concert pig. During the former Pink Floyd frontman’s set on Sunday April 27th, the pig broke from its strings and drifted over the crowd and out into the night, making the saying “when pigs fly” actually valid for once.For those unfamiliar with Waters’ set, the fo

I am somewhat amazed that those of us in the music community don't not vociferously promote Water's opus about the first Gulf War while the current tragedy in Iraq is being perpetrated. I am unaware of even a single source that alludes to the very cogent material strewn through this work. As an anti-war statement I can't think of any other full length musical piece that is comparable. It's ...

Taken from the In The Flesh cd recorded at the Rose Garden Arena in Portland, ORA different take w/o Gilmour's guitar and vocals, but I think it works nicely.Doyle Bramhall II does a more than competent job on guitars
Shine On is another highlight of this set. Although Snowy White is not David Gilmour and does not do a perfect job with the opening notes, he more than makes up for it later on into this long track in one of his many duels with Doyle, and again, it's great to hear Roger's voice on his own song - he actually had the lead vocals on the original album version, too. This is a touching tribute to Sy...
