was that why part of the stands collapsed like 30 seconds into one of the perfomances?

@@GroovingPicthighly possible but not on the night I was there. I left for NI the day after.

It's ironic and hilariously ignorant that you should say that, because audiences being rowdy and noisy and screaming and yelling is exactly what lead to the creation of The Wall in the first place and thus this very song as well. People were literally setting off fireworks at their shows in the 1970s for christ's sake. Roger famously spat on an audience member during the last show of the 1977 tour, and prior to that he had repeatedly been calling people who were setting off fireworks "cunts" and "assholes" (seriously, listen some live recordings from the US leg of the 1977 tour, especially towards the end of the tour, it's hilarious). To say that audiences were "so much better behaved back then" is idiotic and ignorant and simply untrue. And it wasnt just Roger being annoyed by it either, even David has said that "before Dark Side, you could hear a pin drop during quiet parts at our shows. After Dark Side people were screaming 'Money!' from beginning to fucking end!"

Will check it out!!

Pompeii is good, but it has so much studio overdubbing that calling it Live In Paris (where the studio dubs were recorded) would probably be more accurate. There's not much of it (if anything) that is actually 100% live from Pompeii (that said, PULSE also has studio overdubs, but nowhere near to the same degree as Pompeii has. And at least with PULSE it is actually possible to find a 100% live version if you really want to (it was broadcast live as Pay-per-view, and obviously that doesnt have any overdubbing, so it's possible to find torrents and stuff of that))
