WARNING - SPOILERS AHEAD!

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

The tour has now reached the legendary MSG, a venue which Roger praised last year as being a great place to play. Another good show, although little difference to the rest of the recent dates for those tracking any changes or quirkes...

Next stop, Philadelphia for the first of two nights at the Wachovia Center.

CONCERT REVIEW - by BD contributer, Bob Kirschner

What an awesome concert! The players were fantastic and the sound really kicked butt. The speakers were hung all across the roof for WIDE sound. The lighting, video were amazing. Seeing the complete Dark Side album is a moving experience.

What really struck me was the incredible Syd Barrett films. And all the B&W film footage of the band in the fields with the scarecrow was awesome. I just Googled it and read that these were recently discovered Barrett films that had been just found after Syd died in '06. It has already aired in England. Me being a HUGE Floyd fan - I saw The Wall tour - it was an EXPERIENCE.

Roger really made a strong anti-war-Bush statement. He sang FUCK BUSH, painted the floating Pig with slogans "No Torture" "Habeas Corpus" "Bush" pained on the Pig's butt, "Fear Builds A Wall" and he showed the infamous Bush/Mission Accomplished pictures. He held no bars.
