    Finally got around to getting the Pulse DVD over the weekend. I’d been hanging for it for ages, and then when it finally was released, I was broke as a joke. Luckily this week I buggered off more important things and spent the 5 bucks.

    Haven’t got through a lot of the special features yet but I’m pretty darn happy with the concert. The video quality is a bit shithouse, but for those wanting a look at Gilmour’s fingers, the lighting is good (on most occasions) when the camera gets up nice and close, Sound is awesome and you can really hear the bass coming through on the sub. The drums in Learning to Fly… ooooh yeah.

    I still love Water’s Live In Berlin more – you can’t beat Cyndi Lauper dressed as a schoolgirl can you?

      OK, I broke down and got the Pulse DVD. Good quality, but I was surprised how flat–both musically and dynamically–Gilmour was on “Learning to Fly.”

      I bet Roy Castle would have done a better job on Tubular Euro’s 3.

      Mr Bedford was a multi-instrumentalist, writer, producer ( remind you of anyone? ) .

      If I remember correctly, he worked with Gong, weirdo experimental band, where he met Oldfield. I think basically Oldfield was trying to be Bedford. Or Bedford was living vicariously through Oldfield.
      That nutter, Viv Stanshall, was part of the same scene. Interestingly, he named his house Che Guevera.

      Bonzo Dog Doo Da Band indeed.

      Did he go on to greater things? or was that the crowning glory of his career?

      David Bedford did the voice-over for the original rubbish.

      The Wall 2 would almost be as eagerly anticipated as a 4th remaking of Tubular Bells…. ‘Electric piano! dah dah dahhh dah, ‘Electric Bass!’ dum dum dumm, ‘Electronic Cash Register!’ Kerching.. enough said.

      Who did the stupid voice over for that original rubbish?

      Are there two guys on the drums, and a big stand-up surround electronic drum set on the DVD? That’s what was on the “Live in Venice” video.

      Waters is now saying he didn’t like The Wall movie, and there are noises about a new version. Not sure how well it would go over…we’re all over those drugs now, aren’t we? 😉

      Always sticking his snout in Parky too. Everytime I switch onto UKtv, I can practically smell his bad aftershave oozing out the screen. I dunno how Parky does it.

      Dave Gilmour in concert is also nice. Bob rocks up to that gig as well Lee. Filthy rat.

      Good video to ‘Another brick in the wall’ though.

      I saw The Wall at the cinema. What a pile of old w*nk.

      To be honest, I thought the album was crap as well.

      As Dave Gilmour said, “The whole album was a bit of a winge”.

      Roger Waters massaging his ego like it was, well, something that needed a really good massage!.

      You lucky son of a gun. My mate emailed me yesterday to tell me he got the Pulse dvd, and told me how good it is. I’m currently un-employed and have no spare cash whatsoever. Still, I’ll enjoy it all the more when I do get hold of it.
