“As a tribute to Prince David started the second solo of Comfortably Numb with Purple Rain”

Less lasers than usual.

Band rock solid, sooo tight. Looked very relaxed, and Guy Pratt visibly enjoying himself. Astronomy Domine as much a highlight as the last time. Kicks arse at the opening of the second set. And it was filmed. Plenty of shots went live onto Mr. Screen with no lines visible at all – the video seems to be of film quality. Looked fantastic.

Thanks Mike Lacey

I was at the show last night, it was my first full on Gilmour show and I can safely say it’s the best show I’ve ever seen. It’s an experience that will stay with me forever! He truly is the best guitarist on the planet! If more tickets are released for his September RAH dates I’ll probably go! Hearing High Hopes live was mindblowing!

Thanks KAOS_91
