CONCERT REVIEW: ROGER WATERS – 7/20/17 AT NATIONWIDE ARENA, COLUMBUS OHIO

My anticipation for Roger Waters’ Us + Them tour had been building for quite some time. Those of us who had been paying attention to Roger’s set at the Desert Trip concert last year in California had seen video of his new treatment of “Pigs (3 Different Ones”. He had turned it into a full […]

ROGER WATERS – IS THIS THE LIFE WE REALLY WANT?: The RWOM REVIEW…

I had long ago accepted that we would likely never get a new album from Roger Waters. His last album, Amused To Death was released way back in 1991. I wasn’t even more than passively interested in Pink Floyd at that point. My obsession with everything Pink Floyd related developed during my high school years. […]

PRINCE NEWS! NEW SINGLES NOW AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE ON TIDAL WITHOUT A SUBSCRIPTION!

A major story that happened this year while I was away was that Prince moved all of his music away from online streaming services like Spotify, and moved them all to Tidal. Since then, Prince uploaded his newest album HITnRUN: Phase One there as an exclusive for about a week prior to it hitting the […]

BOOTLEG REVIEW: PINK FLOYD – FOREVER AND EVER…

Almost as quickly as the “new” Pink Floyd album, The Endless River came out, chatter started amongst the die-hard Floydians. As I noted in my review of the album, I noted that some of these outtakes were almost like a part two of some of the tracks on The Division Bell. Rather quickly, but not […]

TOP 25 ALBUMS OF 2014 – #3: PINK FLOYD – THE ENDLESS RIVER…

I had to think long and hard about this one. Pink Floyd is a band that is way up at the top of the list in many respects for me. Yes, The Endless River is essentially a collection of outtakes from The Division Bell that have been embellished with better sounding guitar and drums, and […]

REVIEW: PINK FLOYD – THE ENDLESS RIVER…

Earlier this year, The Division Bell, Pink Floyd’s last proper studio album, turned 20 years old. To celebrate, there was a deluxe box set released, with a beautiful repackaging of the vinyl, the related singles, and Blu-Ray audio. Noticeably missing though were any outtakes or bonus material of any kind. This angered some of us […]

Check out “Louder Than Words” at the link! Exciting new for Pink Floyd fans! Today the details and release date were released for the upcoming Pink Floyd album The Endless River.

ROGER WATERS – THE PROS AND CONS OF HITCHHIKING – 30th ANNIVERSARY (A LOOKING BACK REVIEW)…

On my seventh birthday in 1984, completely off my radar as it were, Roger Waters, the chief lyricist and bassist for Pink Floyd released his first solo album. Tensions were at an all time high in the band, as Roger would soon announce the end of Pink Floyd, much to the remaining members’ chagrin. Topically, […]

PINK FLOYD’S *THE DIVISION BELL* TURNS 20! – HOW I BECAME OBSESSED WITH PINK FLOYD…

Twenty years ago this Sunday, March 30 1994 in the UK (but not until April 5th in the US), the final Pink Floyd studio album The Division Bell was released to extremely high and impatient expectations. Their previous album, A Momentary Lapse of Reason, created a dividing line amongst fans. Original lyricist Roger Waters had […]

CONCERT REVIEW: BRIT FLOYD – 3/14/14 at the LC PAVILLION, COLUMBUS, OHIO…

On their brand new Discovery tour, Brit Floyd once again proves they are indeed the world’s greatest Pink Floyd tribute band. Friday night Brit Floyd played the LC Pavillion indoors, the same venue they played last spring about this time. However the crowd was far larger this time as word has been catching on about […]
