If they make a recording of this will anyone buy it and will we be back here comparing about which one is better, the Pulse version or the Waters version?

So silly. And no I won't buy it.

And can Andy really play like David?
And can Guy really play like Roger?

And what exactly is a dream?
And what exactly is a joke?
dsotm tour is such a money grab, i would not even see it for free. i have seen roger three times, once driving 300 miles because he was only did six cities. Saw his last tour only because he did not tour on his amused to death release.

i also did not lay out cash for the who when they brought out tommy and quadrophenia.

however, if pink floyd ever came out with a video/dvd of the wall shows from 1980 i would rent it.
i agree with Slothman, Amused to Death is one of my favorite albums. the first time i heard that dog bark on track 1 i knew i was in for one hell of a recording. Stand up job Roger!

I'd like to see what the band lineup is. Although sounds like corporate inspired cha ching to me. The Radio KAOS tour will still remain his best in my book. I did not see the Amused to Death tour, however that recording secured his status of "genius" with me.

I hope he approaches it with some sincerity.
thanks for posting that, i have tickets to see him in Seattle in October. Yourself?
