WARNING - SPOILERS AHEAD!

Do not read on if you don't want surprises to be spoilt, regarding what the band played!

Roger's 2008 Dark Side Of The Moon mini tour has now arrived in Europe for a string of dates, which should be very well received. The weather wasn't brilliant for this show - heavy rain for many hours lead to its own problems, which included equipment failure and also the crowd destroying the poor piggie! More details are in the great review below.

If you went, why not share your experiences with others less fortunate than you? Reports in Spanish are fine; we have a lot of readers for whom English isn't their first language, so we are always happy with items in other languages.

One day's break for the band (and crew) before they arrive in The Netherlands for the show there.

CONCERT REVIEW and PICTURES by BD CONTRIBUTOR, Jesús María Valera

Well, last Friday Roger did in Granada (south of Spain) the only Spanish gig on the European part of his tour. I was also in Barcelona in 2007 (I wrote a review of that show for this website too!) and obviously the comparisons are there.

First of all, this time the concert was on the football stadium of a small town on the outskirts of the city, so the stands of the seated people were in not very good conditions. Also, the 'public' terraces were on the opposite side of the stadium (the stands near to the concert were reserved for companies), and with the technicians room in the middle of the field, to see the entire show was very difficult.

But I always buy a 'field' ticket, because the feelings of the music come easier to me, being in front of the stage.

All the morning and afternoon was raining in Granada, and I think that was an added problem for the technicians, who definitely suffered this on 'In the Flesh?', when the sound of all the loudspeakers went off. But the audience didn't mind so much and encouraged all the crew.

Generally, the whole concert was really good. Some songs could be made more louder (In the Flesh, Wish You Were Here, Perfect Sense, Breathe) but musically it was really fine. P.P. Arnold was perfect on 'Perfect Sense', 'Set the Controls' sounded very good, 'Us & Them' was terrific, 'Fletcher Memorial' and 'Bring the boys back home' were very touching too... very good all, really.

The black side of the concert: the people in the audience.

Too many people went to the show just for something to do on a rainy day, and they were more attentive to the drink and the food than the concert and the music. Too many people talking and screaming during the 'slow' songs (Mother, Set the controls, Perfect Sense, Great Gig in the Sky...), talking about joints, drinks and other idiot stuff. Even people OPENING AN UMBRELLA in the middle of the show, disturbing the people behind them.

During Sheep, the heavy rain and the people didn't let the pig fly, and Algie was moving around the crowd. At one point, the pig was over my head! But some idiots hung onto Algie and broke it. They pricked it, and used it like an air bed and then later started to break it into pieces. They ripped up Algie. Very, very disappointing.

Definitely, a very good concert, very good music, very good artists, but everything was tarnished a little by the rain and those foolish people.

YOUR HELP NEEDED! We want to cover Roger's concerts the best we can, to share the experience with everyone, especially those who won't be able to attend the shows.

We'd love to see ANY pictures, reviews, newspaper reports, and anything else you come across for this show - we look forward to hearing from you!
