According to an AP report, tattered halves of Roger Water’s beloved inflatable pig have been found by a two families in their yards after it was last seen floating off during Waters' Sunday evening Coachella set. Susan Stolz of La Quinta, California found the plastic tattered remains in her driveway on Monday. She had no clue what it was and thus didn’t reach out to festival organizers till sh
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

This is a touching tribute to Sy...

"I've heard all this before" I said, "Why give it another listen, I know what it sounds like" Well, needless to say, he persevered and I've got to admit, this shit stands up. One of the major highlights of this set is "Dogs" . A 16 plus minutes of absolute sonic brilliance. Turn the volume up...
