Waters Rocks (repost from 2009)

My son and I went to see Roger Waters in Denver this week. This was one of the best rock concerts I've ever been too. I think my teenage son was the youngest person in the audience but he knew all the words to the songs as did the rest of us. The musicians accompanying Waters were brilliant especially the lead guitar and the female vocalists. The flying pig made an appearance but I think the high point of the effects was the pyramid and laser spectrum scanning the audience. A pity that the pyramid had a triangular base - those in Egypt have four sides Roger. As with most modern rock concerts, the music was accompanied by a political theme and it was well taken by the audience. I you have a chance to go, please go and see this show. I felt so alive when we came out. I'd forgotten what they felt like.
