It is a king of concert tours because it was performed by Pink Floyd only a handful of times in its original form(and because it was so over-the-top even then), it has attained legendary status.
This time Roger Waters gave a new look instead of rehashing the same old thing on Tuesday at Qwest Center Omaha.Oh, and there was that giant white wall, built up between the audience and the band, brick by cardboard brick
This time there is no deviation from the original album except a few longer guitar solos and there were only a few pauses — one for an intermission and two or three for Waters to take a minute to speak to the gathered crowd.
Water looks much more comfortable with his fan, it looks like he was much better convinced of “The Wall,” which happened after he spit on a fan at a Montreal concert and thought a wall between him and the annoying gits in the crowd wouldn’t be a bad idea.
In Omaha, he waved at fans, encouraged claps and swayed to the music.
The original album and tour was about isolation. This time around, it was more anti-war, anti-capitalism and anti-poverty than about any kind of psychological issue.
