The show was absolutely incredible. I was fortunate to be in a suite for the show and got a full view of everything. That was by far the best production I've seen at a concert, it was on level with a cirque du soleil show.
To all these people bitching, if you don't like his art or him don't listen to his music or go to his shows. You sound like a crybaby snowflake, which is hilarious bc that's what you say everyone else is. Move on children.

I love Pink Floyd man. I have posters hanging on my wall and a dozen albums I've spent countless hours listening to. They're my favorite band of all time and admittedly their music has gotten me through some rough times.

I'm not here to get into a political debate. I've always respected music more than I have ever respected politics (including Trump). I simply wish the show didn't include that stuff. It's the same way I feel about ESPN putting political rhetoric into their programming. And I'll go on record now saying I'd call out Ted Nugent for making overly political statements during his concerts too.

So you're saying the essence of Pink Floyd is liberal histrionics? Lol

to go but once I heard about the anti Trump shite I backed out. I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan but I don't want to be subjected to anymore liberal bull shite than I already am and I definitely don't want to pay to be subjected to it.

That was hilarious! I'm not a Floyd aficionado and didn't know what was going on but picked up on it pretty quickly.

One guy was smoking and the guy in front of him was getting pissed. Security didn't seem to care.

I was in Section D, row 16. Great spot. Sound was awesome. Not a single complaint about the setlist. Very tight band.

We were sitting directly in front of the soundboard and could smell reefer all around. The sound engineering was fantastic and I enjoyed the hell out of the show. Didn't care about the political shite; I found it funny.

Dogs was perfect, as was Pigs (three little ones).

Not a Trump voter but have politics well to the right of Waters. Loved the show - best arena show I've seen - but my only complaint on the political imagery is that it was so over the top and a little infantile at times that I was laughing at them. It was fun but not in the right way. Like laughing at a movie when they didn't intend to be funny.

Otherwise, what a great show!

I loved the show Roger out together an excellent band they played very well and the music was well done.

As far as politics in not a trump lover or a hater. at the end of the day he is our president. I expected some shots at Trump but I think it was a little too much.

It would be nice to have such an amazing show and display and it be ALL about the music and experience not his political beliefs during IMO what was one of the highlights of the show.

Our row was smoking from the moment the show started. Also a nice piece of Swiss chocolate put the imagery over the top. I had to remind myself on occasion that I was still in New Orleans watching an old bass player sing protest songs.
