Anyone else read this ?
The reviewer , David Bennun , used phrases like :-
"other parts are like a slog in the drizzle" and "followed by a sequence of turgid songs from The Division Bell"

I wonder from what perspective he was making his comments?
My daughter (19) who was with me said "its one of the best concerts I have ever been to , far superior to many of the newer groups I have seen live"

He obviously did not take any note of the audience reaction.
I also assume he is not a Floyd/DG fan.

Is this about the Royal Albert Hall shows because if it is then this guys a nutcase. It was my first concert but my dad has been to The Wall live and Pulse and said that it is better than both of those. The noise and lights. Amazing. No, I don't think he likes David Gilmour. :Oo: ???

Silly man. It's people like him that mean I read the Daily Express more and more.
