PINK FLOYD - HIGH HOPES PULSE CONCERT *1994* REACTION

[@enzolocicero7884]

pulse concert the maximum expression of Pink Floyd!

[@shocklobster6266]

Dave Gilmour is a genius

[@leebex100]

'The Division Bell' is in the British Parliament and is used to call Members of Parliament to vote.

I am 65 now still in luv with pink floyd

[@alanmasters6666]

14 to 52 and at 52 Floyd has never been so powerful You don't listen to pink Floyd you feel pink Floyd and the lyrics become yours the sound stirs your soul and emotions I've seen first time watchers sobbing their hearts out to comfortably numb and to witness someone fall apart tells you how and why Floyd always be greatest band in the world David's wife said David can't show emotion but is a master of expression through his guitar

[@johnnyringo1949]

I love watching when a young person gets hooked on Floyd. Roll with your instincts. So far you’ve been on point. Great job.

[@stopnwonow5044]

I love old Hammond, Juno, Kurlweiz & Moog analogue synth souds. xD..

[@davep1808]

Pretty amazing when it dawns on them and that look on their face when it does. You and I remember how it felt the first time with Pink Floyd. For me, there is no other band that made me feel like they do.

[@bungalowmo]

This was 30 years ago & every bit as epic as it was on that day.

A new generation have now found the Floyd as I did as a 12yr old new year God Willing,I will be 70` with a head full of all the Floyd concerts including Pulse at Earls Court which was surreal 360deg sound,them lasers.took my boy who was 5 ,he is 34 now and still remembers it all ,well burnt into a young mind,Gives you hope.

[@jonhenke1504]

It's called a "lap steel" guitar it kind of sits down like a keyboard yet you play it like a guitar with a glass or a steel slide on one hand. That's what gives it that really smooth sound. He uses it in this concert in another song you simply have to watch to believe called "One Of These Days"! There really isn't a bad song on this entire concert!!

[@ryanwolcott4464]

I was about to add that too. If you're looking for a guitar player who did play on their lap check out Jeff Healey. He learned to play that way sure to blindness from a cancer of his eyes he had before the age of 1. He was a great blues musician.

[@mikemclaughlin3306]

Pedal steel.....but yeah.

[@tammyphxaz]

its called PEDAL STEEL guitar,,,,it doesnt rest on his lap it has 4 legs holding it up and also has pedals used by his feet,hence pedal steel guitar

[@dr.pendyke4887]

@@tammyphxaz big time, Gilmour uses a volume pedal and calls it a pedal steel, because...it is one.

[@protarget1]

Basically it is based on the Hawaiian guitar

[@jayyoung5423]

Slide steel my friend, very popular in country music..but Dave does it serious Justice, peace bro.

[@kevinohara2618]

run like hell from pulse, for a unreal light show and a really fun song

[@scozz6139]

Yup a Lap Steel guitar,.... or Steel Guitar. Gilmour used a couple of different Lap Steel guitars with Pink Floyd, Fender being one, but his Jedson Lap Steel was a favorite of his and that's the one you see here at the Pulse Concerts. I think you're really starting to understand just how special a band Pink Floyd is/was, and David Gilmour by extension. He's a tremendously talented guitarist and musician, his style is unique and instantly recognized by PF fans. He plays the guitar with such passion, feel and emotion, his inventiveness and phrasing show a certain purposefulness, that is not seen in very many guitarists. When Pink Floyd stopped being Pink Floyd, David Gilmour continued on and toured playing Pink Floyd songs as a solo artist with a backing band. David Gilmour has continued to perform as recently as 2016 with the release of his 4th and last solo album, "Rattle That Lock". Today David Gilmour is 75 years old. There are some great videos from the 2006 "Live at Gdansk" concert, and some 2016 performances out there too. Also check out some videos when they were in their mid 20's, like their 1971 "Echoes Live at Pompeii",....there's another Pink Floyd live performance Pompeii in 2016. It was billed as,... "David Gilmour Returns to Pompeii after 45 Years"

[@kathyembley455]

I dated a guy in 1987, who was stationed in the ARMY in Germany and took a dishonorable discharge to leave base and go to a Pink Floyd concert! People have quit their jobs, took a few hundred bucks and left the country to see Pink Floyd!! Life changing….

[@POPE.]

Wow, dishonored his name to enjoy Pink Floyd…he got his honor back.

[@frankwhite2823]

😂 good for him

[@randylantz7951]

I've been watching different reactors, to different kinds of music, and you're the 1st one I've subbed to. You're reactions to Pink Floyd music shows a genuine love and appreciation and awe of this band. I can say that I have truly enjoyed watching someone discover timeless art. Keep at it.

[@Kensing]

i have seen this now and his reatc its the MOST PURE i watch in my life

[@williamosborne6866]

This track is basically a recap of their career as a band, and a final tribute to their founder, Syd Barrett (RIP). The statue at the end is a rendition of SYD in the early days. It is the perfect closing cut on their final studio album, summing up the nearly 25 years since their inception.

[@ThomasEJensen_TEJ]

Every time i hear Pink Floyd i don't mind being kinda old. because i grew up with that shit.

[@jaydunn6989]

I agree One of these days

[@richardcollyer4353]

Have a look at Led Zeppelin, The Who , the Stones , the Beetles , Queen ! All English Bands too ! And we have so many more ! Our little island has turned out some Legendary , trailblazing bands ! 👍🏻

[@MotoKringles]

Pink Floyd - One of These Days or Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond (both from Pulse). Great songs/performance

[@jeanettecameron7530]

They do any thing they want. They're PinkFloyd.

[@johndyslin798]

and high hopes has become one of my favorite, or all-time favorite of theirs. such a beautful song

[@fortch17]

Definitely One Of These Days should be next, then Keep Talking. You'll lose your mind with both of these solos.

[@TheKitsuneDen]

The one thing about this song (at this concert as well {I was lucky at 15 in Cleveland May 26, 1994)) This bell when though the whole song- that was really eerie, but awesome!

[@cr10001]

David was playing a six-string acoustic guitar at first, then at 6:17 you can see he sits down at the pedal steel. Right at the very end you can hear him revert to the acoustic. The pedal steel is a development of slide guitar, which is a 'normal' guitar but played with a 'slide' or a 'steel'. This developed into a 'lap steel' which sits on the player's lap, then it grew legs and a stand and pedals like a keyboard instrument. (You can Google for pics). I love the unique sound it makes, and the ability to slide continuously between notes, which David makes the most of in this track.

[@theamazingwolf816]

i am 45 now... I was 13 n went to the division bell tour at the palace in auburn hills Michigan and 17 when I went to the pulse tour at the silverdome in Pontiac. Best experience of my life! Thanks mom n dad! Not many people my age can say they saw em live! Twice!

[@WhiteSox-mp2wl]

Same concert, LEARNING TO FLY, COMING BACK TO LIFE, TIME, SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND. Great reaction!

[@AshleySmith19912]

Learning to Fly is unbelievably great. The drummer is insane on that performance

[@stehaughton5074]

You need to learn the History of the Floyd,, Its wonderful knowing Pink Floyd keep goin , generation after generation.. Keep it up 🤘

[@discussdebate]

When you bought a Pink Floyd ticket back in the day... you got a concert, performance, an experience and a night of inspiring music!!! ~ "You don't need drugs to enjoy Pink Floyd but you definitely need Pink Floyd to enjoy the effects of your drink and drugs!!" \m/

[@ibgvox]

I was there. Well not 'there' but a concert from the same tour: Barcelona July '94. 16 years old, alone, one of the best nights of my life.

[@ikshields]

Good thing to remember - these musicians are veterans of the psychedelic era (many would suggest they pretty much manifested it) - their music and lyrical poetry are first and foremost dream-images, however much immediate literal sense they make, or stories they may “tell”. You can’t lose by just letting it wash over you, and letting the subconscious images form. No need to over-analyze what any of it’s “about” - it’s about sounds, images, and human imagination, and it’s never been more needed than now, in this sadly superficial, short-attentioned little age we’re passing through now.

[@napnip]

Love this guys reaction! He's discovering that David Gilmour is one of the greatest of all time! Floyd isn't just music, it touches the very soul

[@27thangel23]

Yeah, man- you said 3 for 3... make that about 500 for 500. It was the acoustic that David played at first, but he switched to the Jedson Console Steel guitar, which is the lap steel, securely mounted. But next up should be One of These Days followed by Coming Back to Life then Run Like Hell. And top off a guitar sonic bliss night with Gilmour visiting another band for Marooned. Have life-saving refreshments handy- you gonna need 'em.

[@lynnhoffmann247]

Not sure what you mean by David visiting “another band” for Marooned. That was on their Division Bell album, with Mason & Wright. 🤔 But I agree with your other choices 🤗

I had a friend in the Navy who hated Pink Floyd until I showed him this concert. It was like a spiritual awakening for him. Pink Floyd is likely the most influential band for me of all time.

[@albrantonmusic]

David did switch from acoustic guitar standing up to lap steel guitar sitting down. 😊

[@hihoktf]

Subscribed. There's a lot more to this journey. You haven't even heard anything from their Dark Side of the Moon album yet. That album has spent more than 950 weeks on the charts. When I graduated high school in 1984, it had been on the charts continuously since its release in 1973. For those songs, I'd suggest studio versions of Time (with lyrics) first, then Great Gig in the Sky, which immediately follows (it's a concept album).

[@brianschafer2522]

All I have to say is Pink Floyd takes your mind on a journey!

[@Pyro10B]

Pink Floyd - Animals Album then Dark side of the moon. Pink Floyd albums are best if you listen to the songs in order to get the entire experience.

Loving it fellow Floydian, I agree that you should do some studio cuts. It's not easy, these pulse performances are like crack, but they are also engineering masters. For a totally different Floyd experiece, try the song "Hey You" studio and "Time" studio, as tight as songs can get

Try not to get distracted by videos & just feel the music like you’re doing! 👊🏼 Not sure why your comments are turned off in “One of These Days” but there was one line kinda yelled by the drummer Nick Mason - “One of these days I’m going to cut you into little pieces.”

I love this song and how David transitions from an acoustic guitar to a lap steel at the end. I also think the video images are evocative. To me, anyway, this song always seemed like they were reminiscing about their childhoods or memories from long ago. It has a cinematic sound to it. I also recommend to keep going with the Pulse songs, such as 'Keep Talking' and 'Money.'

[@coot1925]

This is the difference between a "recording artist" and true musician. Floyd can record it in a studio then replicate it live on stage, unlike a lot of people who sound like shit when they try to play or sing live without the aid of auto-tune. ✌️♥️🇬🇧
