![]() A concert film of the “Us + Them” tour was released in October 2020. His next tour, “This is Not a Drill,” was postponed to 2022 due to the pandemic. “Us + Them” audiences–and we suspect they will be left-leaning–are in for a treat. Of the dress rehearsal before roughly 3500 lucky fans in an arena built for 19,000, Waters said, “It’s been so wonderful for us to be here with family and friends, and their friends and their families.”Īfter band introductions came three more songs from The Wall, closing with a terrific “Comfortably Numb.” Waters let Wilson and his lovely voice sing the melancholy chorus (“There is no pain, you are receding”). At the precise moment in “Eclipse,” where Waters beginning singing “All that you touch, And all that you see,” a triangle replicating the DSOTM album cover prism appeared above the floor seats via lasers and smoke machines. ![]() As “Brain Damage” progressed, an inflatable moon flew overhead. The gals from Lucius began with harmonies, followed by the familiar guitar intro. The second set closed with an epic seven-and-a-half-minute “Brain Damage” / “Eclipse,” which together close DSOTM. Sax player Ian Ritchie did the solo as well as on the follow-up, “Us and Them,” with Waters taking a back seat to his band. The band performed “Money” with photos depicting various political figures, as well as images of wealth and poverty. “Money” at the Meadowlands Arena (Photo: Greg Brodsky) Jethro Tull’s ‘Aqualung’: The Ultimate Concept Album.13 Classic Triple Albums: When Rockers Expanded the Limits.Bernie Taupin Memoir, ‘Scattershot,’ Coming.When Steve Miller, Peter Cetera Criticized the Rock Hall.Moody Blues’ “Children’s Children…” Goes Deluxe.Live Nation Offering $25 Concert Tickets.Olivia Newton-John Gets Duets Collection, ‘Just the Two of Us’.The Moody Blues and Four Tops’ ‘Simple Game’.Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: 100 Crucial Omissions.Peter Gabriel Shares Stunning 5th Track From New Studio Album, ‘i/o’.Eric Clapton: ‘Stephen Stills, Carlos Santana Were 1st Ones in For 2023 Crossroads Guitar Festival’.Paul Simon’s ‘There Goes Rhymin’ Simon’: American Tunes.‘What the Hell Happened to Blood, Sweat & Tears?’: Soundtrack Review.Jim Gordon Biography, ‘Drums & Demons,’ Coming From Author Joel Selvin.Best Weekly Singles Charts of All-Time: May 1967 Edition.Linda Ronstadt’s Album Designer, Kosh, Talks Covers. ![]() Steve Winwood Performs at Coronation Concert, 2nd Stage Appearance in 4 Years.Tickets to see Waters’ tour are available here and here.
