They were just as amazing as I remembered. Pretty near perfect, both instrumentally (if that's a word) and vocally. They concentrated mostly on Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here with a little of The Wall.
Check them out. If you're a Pink Floyd fan they are unmissable:
I was slightly disappointed when they didn't play 'Another Brick in the Wall' but pretty thrilled when they played 'Echoes.' 'Echoes' is not my favourite song ever but I think it has some of the most amazing lyrics I have ever heard in my life. Which I will put below here, so take a read or try and get hold of this song for a listen:
Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant tide
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine.
And no-one called us to the land
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light
Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can
And no-one calls us to move on
And no-one forces down our eyes
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
And no-one flies around the sun
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no-one sings me lullabies
And no-one makes me close my eyes
And so I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant tide
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine.
And no-one called us to the land
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light
Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can
And no-one calls us to move on
And no-one forces down our eyes
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
And no-one flies around the sun
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no-one sings me lullabies
And no-one makes me close my eyes
And so I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky
On another note I recently watched 'What Dreams May Come.' The film itself (plot-wise) was pretty good/interesting. But what made it so great was the way it was made with Fuji Velvia film. Visually, it was stunning.
Check out what Velvia is, here:
Some images of the film:
Here is the trailer, watch between 1.40 and 2.40 for some of the best looking scenes (in my opinion.)
Enjoy!
