On friday I saw - "The Wall Laser Light show"
Let me just say how much of a dissapointment it was for me. I was dissapointed right from the first chord on "In the Flesh"- It was not loud enough. That song was made to be played blasted.

Then on top of that, the show was not nearly disturbing enough. If you are going to do Pink Floyd, do it right. Sure there were images of Prostitutes, suicide, drug use, and Nazi-ism, but I was really expecting more.

The show is true to the "plot" of the Wall, but some songs are left out. I was actually impressed by how close to the PF vision it was, but still not shocking.

Lastly, there is one aspect to a Pink Floyd Laser Light Show, that must not be ignored- If you can not understand it when you are completely toasted, it should not be a Laser Light Show. This was definately made for psycodelica.

I have seen "Dark Side of the Moon Laser Light Show", and it was really cool cus you were submersed in sound, and actually felt like you were flying through space and time.

I'm assuming you were watching a ' Floyd tribute band?

I last saw the Floyd at "Live 8" in Hyde Park , London back in July, not a laser in sight, not one required.

No this was a computer generated show set to Pink Floyd music
