I was at this gig in earls court London. I had tears running down my face for most of the concert. The girl next to me collapsed under the weight of emotion and I had to help her friend pick her up. It was the single most amazing experience of my life.

And now you know what us old folks mean when we say "that isn't music"

That solo makes me cry every time. The whole song speaks to so many people and evokes many emotions...I think you can't ask for much more than that as an artist.

Next time you watch this keep your eyes open, you missed 1/2 the show. 😆

The light show is just as important as the music! That's why they're so amazing!

The whole Pulse concert is like that. Really. The WHOLE CONCERT.

Best way to forget all your troubles and get them out of your head. Listen to Pink Floyd and let the music take you wherever it takes you….. as always peace, love, joy, and hope to you and yours

Oh man - the stage production for the Pulse concert was Insane. I recommend sitting down for the entire concert video, it's incredible both musically and visually. This was the encore. The violins you hear are a synth keyboard. And yeah, I would have 110% been a David Gilmour groupie if I'd been of age back in the day. His vocals and guitars give me chills every time. He's another one of those who can just take you on a journey.

David is not a shredder……..no one can play the way he does…… From his soul……rock god.

That's Pink Floyd own stage, they owned all of it, the stage, the rigs, the lights, the audio, the giant disco ball that opened up, the production, everything you see and hear! The stage itself was 180 ft high, and 130 ft long, it was modeled after the Hollywood Bowl. And they owned 3 of those,... three of those stages, rigs, lights, audio, disco ball! All of it, Three! The 1994 Pulse Concert/Division Bell World Tour was the largest of the time. 700 tons of steel transported in 53 tractor trailer trucks, and a crew of 161 people. Because of the size and setup of these stages, they had 3 identical stages and rigs, leapfrogging from venue to venue across North America. Load -in, (setup), took three and a half days, and load-out, took two days, so they absolutely needed multiple stages to go from city to city.

One doesn't merely listen to Pink Floyd. One EXPERIENCES Pink Floyd. Welcome aboard.

I say this every time I watch this vid --- man what I wouldn't have given to have been in that audience at that concert. I was 32 years old in '94, sigh, and now at 60 these fantastic bands from my younger days have so much poignant meaning and memories for me.

Glad you found this. This was the finale of one of the most epic live performances ever recorded.

David Gilmour literally plugs his guitar into your soul !! 🎸

My favorite song my favorite band. I still listen to the Wall after all these years. I'm 81 and love them all just as much as I did in th 70's. I love the enthusiasm you have for this music. Thank you.

This was from Pulse 1994.I love the song “Sorrow”from the same concert.The light shows all came with Floyd in there later tours

I was at this concert in 1994 at Earls Court in London (Pulse Tour) I was sitting up in the balcony directly opposite the Giant Mirror Ball which came down from the ceiling and opened up..!! I was on the left hand side looking towards the stage..Every Pink Floyd concert is a spectacular with lighting, lazers, explosions, amazing set designs and also at this concert during 1 of the songs a real scale size Spitfire Areoplane flew overhead from the back of the Stadium and crashed and exploded on the right of the stage..Also on another song "One of These Days" on either side of the stage a Giant Pig/Wild Boars face with lazers coming out of each eye appeared through the song both heads moving around in different directions towards us fans and they were literally at the same height as the balcony we were sitting in so the lazer eyes would from time to time be right in your face..!! The whole concert was AWESOME every song aswell as fantastic sound system as the speakers were placed all around the Stadium so you would here different instruments coming from all different directions 😉..Pink Floyd even when they started in the 60's have always had stage and lighting effects and also the 1st band to ever use quadraphonic sound systems were 4 Giant Speakers would be placed in every corner of an Arena, so basically like listening to music with headphones on were you hear different instruments coming thru your ears at certain times in sync..Even now 30yeats later it sends shivers down my spine when I watch the DVD of the concert or listen to the album of the concert which Pink Floyd released about a year after the Tour finished and PS I'd taken a 100 magic mushrooms 🍄 😀 before the concert began so you can imagine the way things were looking CRAZY uf you were straight Out of this World 🌎 tripping 🫨🫣😵‍💫🤪🤩🤣

It was 2 days before my 27th birthday when I saw them on this tour on May 14, 1994 in my hometown here in New Orleans, LA at the Superdome. This is THE stage setup they traveled the world with, and this is no special. This is what you saw on each and every stop on that concert tour. Basically their main stage was like the Hollywood Bowl in California with a better light setup and a huge circular projection screen that hung over the band's heads which was also surrounded by lights. Even the front of the stage was filled with lights. And the sound system was second to none. It made you feel like you were surrounded in their sound in crisp, clean perfection. This was probably the most visually and sonically best concert I've ever been too, and that's going some for someone who has seen the best of the best from Elvis Presley himself (4 times) to Prince, Paul McCartney, Rush, Elton John, The Rolling Stones, Van Halen, Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Aerosmith, Iron Maiden, etc.

That was the best concert I've ever been... Everything was amazing, but I give a special price to the sound engeneers because, above this amazing show, the sound was crazy ! Thanks for your beautiful reaction and love from France 🇫🇷😘

Went to six nights of this Earls Court run. Having attended gigs since the 60s, when Floyd were supporting Hendrix that cost me 10/6 lol (about 50cents) , this was the best gig ever. Each night was a slightly different solo, as was the Money jam. Amazing. This was the third part of a world tour that started with Momentary Lapse, Another Lapse, Division Bell, Delicate Sound of Thunder, and after a break went right up to the Pulse Earls Court run. The first two parts totalled 198 shows, the last part 112.

I saw two shows from this tour at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena! The lighting was awesome and lasers projected way beyond the stadium, it was insane!!!👌👍✌️😀

Great reaction, man. That ring of lights that turned is actually a 40ft projection screen that they show video on during the song. For more amazing visuals from this concert, you need to watch these songs. Learning To Fly, Sorrow, Keep Talking, One Of These Days, Another Brick In the Wall, On the Run, Time, and Run Like Hell which closed the show. Best finale to a concert ever. I don't want to spoil what you'll get out of the others but they all will drop your jaw. The rest of the show is amazing as well, I just picked special moments to see with your eyes. Great reaction, bro. Looking forward to more!

The violin sounds a provided by Richard Wright.

That's the ways all of Pink Floyd's concerts are. Sometimes VERY big props.

Your desire to react to a groups’ studio recordings first, followed by a live performance is spot on. The studio compositions are usually where the artist’s intentions are best expressed and captured. Sat front row center for this show in the New Orleans Superdome. Had to turn around at the end of this song to watch the Disco Ball open up. Floyds’ stages were always Top Shelf. From Dark Side, to Wish You We’re Here, to Animals and The Wall, their attention to the fan experience was 2nd to none. Btw, not violins (this time) all Synths and Keyboards. R.I.P. Richard Wright

one of my greatest memories of my life - seeing them live on this tour 1994 in Oakland, CA. As close to a religious experience I've ever had! You see how the cameras go behind the audience - you see every person fully fixated and mesmerized by the epic brilliance performed for them. Witness to brilliance!

This was from a world tour. I got to see it in Nashville. Was the best sounding concert I ever went to-better than the records! Got to see Roger Waters The Wall as well. Was a dream come true! Waters still tours. Welcome to The Pink Floyd!🤘😎 ✌🌎❤

Pink Floyd does give a concert, they give an experience. You want to see lights you should see Run Like Hell from the Pulse Concert.

just about every song/performance in the pulse-concert is incredible. at that point, they were going for 30 years. if you want to see them play live young, try "echoes" live in pompeii 1971/72. and if you love "comfortably numb" so much, try another live-version: david gilmour live in pompeii 2016 (he´s 70 in that take).

You’re going to have to watch this all over again. I understand getting into the music here. Half of the show involves the visuals. You went eyes closed a good bit. Watch it all next and then listen again with your eyes closed the entire song. Friendly advice my friend.

All hail Floyd and the "Disco Chandelier".

This rabbit hole too…..yippee! Love this one….this concert is magic.🔥🔥🔥🔥

If you want to keep it real with live Floyd performances, their Echoes live in Pompeii is a masterclass in live energy and sound without all the flashy effects, and without an audience. A performance for the ghosts of history.

Any time you close your eyes during this concert (not faulting you at all 'cuz the music just blows ya away), you're missing SO much...excellent reaction, man! Thank you.

I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show in N.Y. Syracuse Carrier Dome 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap froged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION. Nick Mason’s drumming is incredible and matches Gilmour’s guitar emotions while Richard Wright takes us on a Magic Carpet Ride of tones that form the foundation of it all. When the "Disco Ball" was unveiled and the lights hit it was a mind blowing experience nobody there will ever forget. I never will.

That’s the way PF has always done it! With lasers !! Always and forever !

The next thing to enhance listening to Pink Floyd is a good set of headphones.

Sans doute la meilleure performance scénique de tous les temps ! je les ai vu a Paris, c'etait de la pure magie !

Pink Floyd The Epitome Of Music Levels Of A Guitar Player 1 BEGINNER 2 ADVANCED 3 PROFESIONAL 4 EXPERT 5 LEGEND 6 GOD OF THE GUITAR 7 DAVID GILMOUR 🎸 (SHINE ON 💎) 🎼☮️👊

What a beautiful heart felt comment and as a bonfire Floyd fan I am so glad you have experienced Pink Floyd and hope you will continue listening to their catalogue of amazing work

Pink Floyd has always been known for their light shows right from the start. The round object is a movie screen.

"The Back Up Singers"........you HAVE TO react to The Great Gig In The Sky from this concert, dont ask why just do it.

Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a P.F. show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"... I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Raphael Ravenscroft” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen. I asked David…. How do you create those awesome solos?… he said….. I sit on a stool and listen to what Roger, Nick and Rick put down and play along. I listen to what I played and pick out what I like, then I put the pieces together into one piece then learn to play it as one. Our fans are fanatics for our shows to sound like the albums so I must play it correctly each time in a show. I have the concert Brochure and album on the wall with David’s picture centerfold. All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible. The Red Fender Stratocaster he used for this concert in the Guitar Collector World is ....PRICELESS

Welcome my son. Welcome to the machine.

I sparked up my pipe for this reaction, as I do to all Pink Floyd songs, Thanks

i was lucky to see them in the run up tour to this show and they were every bit as good before testing out this exact show which i still have film photos i took at the time of this exact show with slightly less lights. it cost millions back then, the band were magnificent and yes Gilmour's guitar takes & cuts through your emotions, the music is an experience & a journey!

I very much enjoyed watching you discover one of my favorite bands, and their best song, live. Thanks for choosing to react to it. Pink Floyd was legendary back in the day for their live shows and light shows, and many believe even today, they've never been equaled. In case you're interested, "Comfortably Numb" is from the double-album "The Wall". It's a concept album, like the several PF albums released prior to it. It tells the story of the fictional character, Pink Floyd, a young lad who wants to be a rock star. Over the course of the album he does achieve this goal, but through the years he has had to build walls (hence the album title), first in school to wall off evil teachers and mean students, later to eliminate distractions and focus on his music, and eventually to protect him from his many fans (as well as to ensure Pink only hears what his manager and record-company execs want him to hear.) "Comfortably Numb" represents a turning point in Pink's story. As this point, Pink has come to hate his life. He's lonely, wealthy beyond all measure but trapped and prevented from going out in public and enjoying the fruits of his years of hard work. He's surrounded by people always telling him where to go, what to do, and he knows they care nothing for him. They're only there to make money off him. He despises his existence, and so has turned to drugs to numb his pain, at the walls with which he has surrounded himself, and now cannot tear down. As the song begins, Pink is in his dressing room before a concert one night, and he's wasted~too wasted to perform. We hear a groupie asking him if he's feeling okay, and his manager knocking on the door, telling him it's "Time to go-o!". Seeing Pink's condition, his manager calls in a local doctor, and it's his voice we hear initially, trying to assess Pink's condition, asking him "Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me..." Pink responds that he's feeling no pain, and he's having trouble focusing on the doctor. "Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying." Guitarist David Gilmour's first solo is while Pink is still dreamily drugged out. It's brief and beautiful, emotional bliss set to music; Pink is comfortably numb. The doctor gives Pink a shot ("Just a little pin-prick" - *bling!^) of something to get him going. Nobody cares what it's doing to Pink, as long as it makes him able to go out on stage and perform, so they all get paid. The shot does indeed sober Pink up, and he's forced to face the existence he hates while out on stage, and Gilmour's second solo is filled with Pink's hatred of his life, his self-loathing, his loneliness, and Gilmour's mastery of his instrument portrays Pink's misery perfectly. Pink's comments about the things that have happened to him are based on actual events in songwriter and former bassist Roger Waters' real life. When he was a child he did get a fever, which caused him to feel like his hands were swollen ("My hands felt just like two balloons"). Then in 1977, while touring with Pink Floyd (the actual band) in Philadelphia, Waters did contract an illness before a show -some say hepatitis- and he was given a shot of something to get him through the night's performance. Rogers does not speak positively about the experience. But while these two events did take place, they aren't what the song is about. "Pulse" is the name given to both the CD and later DVD releases of Pink Floyd's 1994 tour to support their album "The Division Bell" (so named because of the red LED in the spine of the original issue CD's, which 'pulsed' on and off.) Roger Waters had left the band some ten years previous, and the remaining members were already in their fifties by this point. "Division Bell" turned out to be Floyd's last studio album, and this tour turned out to be their last tour together. Perhaps sensing this, Floyd basically gave their stage designer a blank check. The stage details alone are stunning: 130-foot tall arch, 180-foot wide stage, 700 tons of steel, two days to set it up, another three to break it down, 53 trucks to haul it from city to city, and three of these stages leap-frogging each other around the world. Mind-bending. Pulse is truly one of the most incredible concerts ever captured on film or video. I had the pleasure of seeing the tour at a stadium here in the States, and is was even more amazing than the video can portray; the lights on the Eclipse -the round projection screen- and the banks of lights that encrust the stage arch were active ALL the time, and they were so tightly choreographed to the music that they were almost another performer. If you're looking for other songs to react to, you can choose virtually any song from this concert, and it will be exceptional. However, Pink Floyd crafted the Dark Side of the Moon album 20 years before this concert; Dark Side has been called one of the greatest and most influential albums ever made, and they performed virtually the entire album on this tour. But this tour included "Wish You Were Here" (written to their former Floyd band-mate Syd Barrett), "Sorrow", "High Hopes" (about looking back on the days of youth), "Time", or their typical finale on this tour, "Run Like Hell". All excellent choices. Thanks again for reacting to this, and welcome to the Pink Floyd reality. (Oh, and the disco ball is supposedly from Floyd's very early days in the late 60's, when the Beatles were all the rage, and a reviewer said they would never become popular because 'young people can't dance to their music'. As a snarky response, Floyd starting including a disco ball at their shows, in case anyone wanted to get up and dance. Over the years it became a mainstay, until, well......)

It performed at Earls Court in London.

French Horns when the band sings and violins for David..... sets the mood for the words. Now you need to do Sorrow..... record first, then get blown away by the live Pulse version. lol

Pink Floyd formed in London in 1965. The group chose their name in recognition of 2 Black American southern blues musicians named PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council.

Baby, your community has FABULOUS taste in music and you make it so fun to join in! Thank you for all your hard work! It shows!

I saw this 3 nights in a row in 1994. Absolutely blown away.

I saw this concert four times three nights in Philly in a row One Night in New York. The most amazing concert I've ever seen will never be one better. $33 a ticket

❤️❤️ 5 star Floyd face you had there mate, glad you enjoyed it. I was there on that night, and a second night too. One for the music and one for the trip. Out of this world experience ......

This was Earls Court in London......whole Pulse Concert was like this.....

I can't wait for you to listen to the entire album ~ non stop!

My friend, let me be delicate,. I watch every reaction to this performance anyone makes. From Millennials to Europeans to Rap fans x to African-Americans. During the Solo your Body Language said you got it 100 pct . THANKS! It takes all of us

We need to play this when the space ship lands...the ball opening up like a flower reminds me of that

You need to do a special reaction to full album, "Dark Side of the Moon"! Quite a few reactors have done it, & glad they did! It's best to hear in one sitting, front-to-back, like "The Wall" actually. Their albums tend to tell a whole story. ✌🌎❤

This was at Earls Court London, the greatest ever.😎

The stage is based on the Hollywood Bowl. Obviously, they decided to make their own version of the bowl to tour with. 😀in 1994, the cost of each show was estimated to be 1 million U.S. dollars.

There are certain Must See Videos for reactors…This is definitely #1! Great series idea. Live is proof of true musicianship.

Saw this concert live in Miami , i will be the same, brilliant!

Great idea for a series. I always think we should hear the studio version then live version, but I love the idea to compare/contrast! Would be here for it.

I saw this live, when I was 20. Already knew and loved the song, but this was way before You Tube. I had no idea what I was going to see and listen to. It was a religious/spiritual experience. The show I saw was at the Rose Bowl stadium, and that disco ball and lotus flower thing came up from basically the 50 yard line at the stadium. I was right next to it and had no idea it was coming. And the sound, it came from every corner of the stadium. Complete surround sound. This tour will never be topped. You should watch this entire concert.

David Gilmour…a gift from the music gods..that guitar is an extension of his heart and soul..the emotion is mesmerizing….the cohesiveness of the band 2nd to no one..not sure which solo is better…sorrow?…On the turning away? High Hopes? It’s endless!!

David never ever wastes a note..magical

Pink Floyd basically wrote a blank cheque for the stage production. I got to see this tour in 1994 and I've never seen anything close since.

You need to watch the whole concert. There is no bad song or performance. They are my #1 band of all time. Try Sorrow next. Great reaction, love it when people discover the awesomeness of Pink Floyd.

For those of us who grew up listening to this music and seeing these bands and the light shows that accompanied them ~we were truly BLESSED!

Good idea to listen to both.

violin = synthesizer (rick wright)

You’ll find, you just can’t compare the Greatest Guitarists. They all have their own “special” that brings us joy, collectively.

Great reaction man, thank you!

only one song , imagine all Pulse concert 😎👍🎸🎶🎶

brilliant

The stage was modeled after The Hollywood Bowl (...because they liked the acoustics ), where they had played on one of their earliest visits to the U.S....in the 1960s or early 70s. They had two or three of them built.......and they leapfrogged them across the country. A massive army of big rigs & crew would be setting up in the next venue....while they played several nights in one place.

Saw them on this.tour in Vancouver BC. Amazing 👏

Studio first is always the best, many reactors miss 99% of the music that was put down to represent them forever

Pink Floyd are brilliantly different.

They were very show oriented especially use of lasers. Used to be this thing back in the day called “Laser Floyd” where places like planetariums would put off laser shows to the tune of pink Floyd music. Given their music was so trippy and went hand in hand with psychedelic drugs, the lightening/laser shows were absolutely perfect additions to complete the whole vibe. Comfortably numb, few hits, lasers going everywhere. Dandy night lol

They took that whole set up with them to every city on a worldwide tour. They had to have two entire set-ups, since it took several days to assemble it all. One would be setting up at the next tour stop, while they played the other one, then they switched off. To this day it is one of the largest selling and highest grossing tours of all time. Even not counting inflation.

Its Earls Court London. I was lucky enough to be in the first 10 rows. Although didn't know where to look. Behind me at the ball or in front at the band!

I was there in 94, Earl's Court. The only concert l've ever been to.

The video of this concert did won a grammy.

This was one of the best live performances I have ever watched. By the way, the “other best” performances were also by Pink Floyd.

Cool reaction man. First thing for you… the stadium that show was filmed at was Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London. When Boris Johnson was Mayor of London he proposed a massive regeneration of the Earls Court area, which would have included having the Arena granted heritage listed building status (which would mean it would be protected). However, it was acquired by developers who managed to get a licence for immunity from listing by English Heritage, and they demolished it in about 2016 or 2017. ‘Progress’. You might be interested in the ‘Their Mortal Remains: Pink Floyd Exhibition’, which I think is in Montreal, but I’m sure is also going to New York. Not sure if you’re near any of those parts of the world. It’s an amazing exhibition. You can actually see and stand next to parts of that giant glitter ball. It’s absolutely enormous!

That’s a good idea. You could call it Studio vs. Live

A Pink Floyd song is not about «melody» nor rimes, as much as about emotions (normally dark emotions like despair, sadness, lonlyness, etc) The big disco ball is highly symbolic. First of all, it wasn't seen until the lights spotted it. It was simply not there! Hidden in a box in the ceilling. So when it got lit, you can understand why the audience went wild. And then, when it opened up and showed the shining diamond that's inside, a direct reference to "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" (which refer to Syd Barrett), the fans understood! Genius!

Thanks for the reaction brother

You gotta check out the live version, of The Great Gig in the Sky, by Pink Floyd! Goosebumps!

Keyboard rolls with one hand, sustain with the other. Richard Wright.

Comfortably numb live at Pompeii 2016. Must see

At the Pulse Concert (1994), you see 3 members of Pink Floyd performing at close to age 50.

You just witnessed one of the greatest guitar solos in history...David Gilmore is amazing--he makes the guitar sing.

You missed the best part of the shoe with your eyes shut…..watch it again

You need headphones !!trust me

First of all that show cost Pink Floyd $800,000 a day to put on in 1994. The lights the computerization all the equipment cost them $35 million for the stage set up. Also this was done in Earl's Court in London and that same show sold out 15 nights in a row! They had three separate stages with them leapfrogging one another to the next city and as they took one venue down they were putting together the next one in the next city. I've heard anywhere from 50 to 75 semis to carry the equipment for one stage setup. Anyway this is a standard Pink Floyd concert and that was not the finale! Every song Pink Floyd puts on is at least equivalent to any other bands finale!! Anything from this concert will have your mouth in your lap!! Enjoyed the reaction, keep it up!! The lighting engineer is Marc Brickman and the Pink Floyd band members basically handed him a blank check and said see what you can do and you saw what he can do!! Mr Brickman has been with them since their wall concert tour they did in 1980 and he's fairly good at his job!

Earls court, England. 14,000 people. Check out Sorrow from the same concert!

U should watch "Run like Hell" from the pulse concert.It was the finale of the concert.It was right after Comfortably Numb!!The lights r amazing!!U will b blown away!!
