Katy, Mira and I had tickets to go see Roger Waters in his farewell tour at the Hallenstadion in Zurich.<\/p>\n

I’d previously seen The Wall in 2010 in Montreal and 2011 in London, so it’d been a really long time since I hadn’t seen a live show. It’s impressive to remember that the man is 80 years old and still putting out a mean show!<\/p>\n

Putting aside the bolshy politics and the fact that the newer material is not even subtle in its in-your-face attitude, the show was – as Katy described it – powerful. I still really do prefer the older Floyd-era material and that did not disappoint. There are a few of the recent ones I’ll give another listen to though.<\/p>\n

We drove up there and back, ending up back home at 230am. It’s been a long day.<\/p>\n

While we were there, Gino and Lizzie were taking care of the chonk. Seems like they all had a good time, except for one detail…<\/p>\n
