[@vernhoke7730]

Pink Floyd is a journey. I've been a fan for 50+ years. This whole concert is epic. The song was written by Roger Waters, a founding member of the band who's not in this, about when as a kid and he was really sick and felt comfortably numb being medicated. The Prism you're talking about is the cover art from their 1973 album "Dark Side of the Moon". Probably one of their most popular albums. It spent an amazing 900, or more, weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 album charts. I know I added to that. Since I bought the original in 1973 I've had a copy on 8-track, cassette and compact disc. Also a half speed Original Master Recording on virgin vinyl and a Super Audio CD of the original master.

[@tammccoy4258]

Lyrics by Waters. Music by Gilmour.

[@stuBdoc]

That's the official explanation. But to me, it is Syd's voice talking about his descent into schizophrenia, where he is insulated from life by being "comfortably numb". The guitar solos and the heaviness of the music makes the subject way too important for such a simple event as in that official explanation.

[@scalefree]

@@stuBdoc feel free to believe what you like. he did experience a flashback to when he was sick as a kid but there's a larger context. the complete & accurate story is that during a tour date in Philly Roger got hepatitis & was treated by a shady venue doctor so he could perform that night. the song is a call-&-response between Roger as patient & the shady doc.

[@danielmarshall3102]

As a guitar player there are many styles presented by great players very gifted in their particular style technically, but for me personally David Gilmour exhibits the same characteristic which the band has mastered, and that is to resist the tendency to display technical skill in favour of using the guitar to extract emotion from an audience by both a hypnotizing melody and immersing you in a soundscape of passion, and more than often with a highly intellectual social message to drive it all home to be branded on your memory..

Actually, I believe at the time, the Rolling Stones ''Steel Wheels" Tour had the largest stage. When we built it in 89 at Shea Stadium in NY, it was 155 ft tall , filled the entire outfield and went into the bleachers on both sides. There were close to 100 tractor trailers of Production ( Lights, Sound,Scenery etc) There were 3 complete Steel Stages on the Tour, the one they would be playing on that week, one being built in the next city and one traveling to the venue 2 weeks away.!

[@JohnNapoli-d7u]

They used 51 semis in order to 'leap-frog' across their North American Tour. For instance, if they were playing in Tampa, 17 semis were there with the staging and support items. At the same time, 17 semis were taking down the Miami concert venue, and, 17 semis were setting up the next concert location in Jacksonville, and so on. THE most incredible concert tour ever accomplished. Years later they put out the video and DVD set filmed from the end of their World Tour in London, called "Pulse". The North American concert was very similar. I had seen them in 1987 at Tampa Stadium, and suggested to my high school students that I was teaching in 1994, that they should see this concert. I went to the concert and was astonished that the '87 show could be made that much more amazing. Then, when teaching classes the following day, a few students came up to me and said, "Thanks a lot coach. We went to that Pink Floyd concert. You've ruined concert-going for us for the rest of our lives......because, we know right now that we will never see anything to top that."

I want the scene at 10:40 as a poster. It is an iconic image of David Gilmour. Actually, and of the silhouettes of him after that point.

Probably my favorite PF song! ❤ My college bf played this for me on the way home from getting my wisdom teeth removed... It's been a favorite ever since 😄 The second guitar solo is one of my all-time favorite solos 💖🦋

I Was at this concert at Earl's Court in London. The greatest band. Period. This song is nearly 50 years old. Amazing event that will never be repeated.

Pink Floyd has been described as a journey through sonic mastery. They have been one of my favorite bands ever. The song Comfortably Numb is about a person going through a narcotic drug haze and the Comfortable feeling you get after you get from a shot of it. I have never used street narcotics but for surgeries and bad injuries, I have had to have a few shots of it in my life and this song describes the feeling so accurately. I am not recommending that anyone try it to test my experiences. Only under a doctor's orders.

Eddie V.Halen said about David Gilmour solos that they are like those beautiful paintings that you just have to look at , and enjoy them .

Pink Floyd. They represent an amazing journey to go on from the early years with Sid Barret up to what you have just seen.
