I saw them in the superdome in '94 and that was the best live performance I have ever seen by far. I sure would like to see them again before they hang it up.

Considering that 2 members are dead, and Waters and Gilmour hate each other. I would sssume that the chances are slim to none.

Gilmour said his solo during comfortably numb in the super dome was his best ever.


Lucky bastard.

Your only choice would be to fly somewhere to see Gilmour in concert (I doubt if he would come to New Orleans). Waters tours more frequently, but Gilmour gives you a better feel because he was the main singer and lead guitar player.

No chance, just catch a good Floyd cover band and enjoy the music.

Your best bet is to go see Brit Floyd play. I saw them in P'cola and they were amazing. Sound almost identical. I'm gonna see them again in June.

Holy shite! How have I not heard of them yet. I'll be on YouTube for a while. They really are pretty damn fantastic. Dude channels Gilmour sound perfectly.

It's as close as you'll get. The vocals are a bit off and guitar a bit stiff compared to Gilmour but they put on a fantastic show.

It's not the same, but it's still a great Pink Floyd experience

I thought Roger sang almost all the songs for many, many years before I realized how much Gilmour and Wright sang, also.

A lot of what I thought was Waters was actually Gilmour.

DSOTM:
Breathe - Gilmour
Time - Gilmour/Wright
Money - Gilmour
Us and Them - Gilmour
Brain Damage - Waters
Eclipse - Waters

Wish You Were Here:
Shine on (both parts) - Waters
Welcome to the Machine - Gilmour
Have A Cigar - Roy Harper (guest singer)
Wish You Were Here - Gilmour

Animals:
Pigs on the Wing 1&2 - Waters
Dogs - Gilmour first Waters second
Pigs - Waters
Sheep - Waters

The Wall:
A Whole lot of Waters, for sure...but Gilmour sings parts on a bunch
