Dave Gilmour at the Royal Albert Hall
Have ticked one of my ‘things i must do’ items off my list…
Tuesday evening a few of us trundled up to the Royal Albert Hall to see the Dave Gilmour gig, for his On and Island tour.
rather than go on at great length, just have to say it was brilliant. Most of the tracks sounded better live than recorded.
from my perspective the second half of the concert was the best as it was all Pink Floyd tracks with Rick Wright supporting him on keyboards.
the first album I ever owned was The Wall and Comfortably Numb has always been my favourite track on that album and the second guitar solo the reason I think I first picked up a guitar…. so I have seen Dave Gilmour play that solo live … nuff said, am a happy boy.
suffice it to say it was a great concert with the RAH acoustics, good light show and a full house of people just as excited as I was.
