The way Eddie Van Halen put it into words is best way I've heard David Gilmour explained. "David Gilmour is the benchmark of less being more. He has proved that shredding and fast playing is not the benchmark of mastery level. Gilmour never wastes a note; he builds his solos like a painter; every note, every bend, every tonal inflection has merit...David's solos paint a picture in the minds of his listeners. Something that really is a testament of his talent as a guitar player"

[@trevorgreen6658]

Dude, it's really the truth. It's a lot easier to play things fast although it seems contradictory. Both are amongst my favorites but Gilmore never wastes a note. It's crazy. But neither did SVG. It's all about the soul of the player.

[@iDONTdoFacebook]

As Megadeth guitarist Dave Mustaine once said of Dave Gilmour… “David Gilmour can do more with one note than most guitarists can do using the whole fretboard.” Dave Mustaine was right.

It was May 1994 in Raleigh, NC. David was playing this solo and then the lights hit that crystal ball that is as big as a house. The whole stadium was in a trance. All 60,000 plus people were slowly spinning into euphoria. This was the penultimate song that is only rivaled by High Hopes. I will never forget the experience.

[@laserfloyd]

It was May 1994 in SC that the same thing happened to me. It was surreal to see the 'stars' spinning around the stadium. I remember the security guards near the concourse all pointing at the mirror ball before it lit up. They were yelling "WHAT IS THAT?!" No one knew.. then BAM, it lit up, and everyone went nuts. Amazing. 😁

[@toxygeneification]

I got May and September 1994 in Atlanta. The first show I was way up in the nosebleeds and you could see the mirrored ball raise up from the center console but we didn't really know what it was until the lights hit it. One of those experiences that you have trouble explaining to someone who didn't see it too. The second show in September I had 8th-row dead center and some excellent LSD. That was the greatest concert experience of my life.

+10 points for catching a show on the Division Bell tour. -10 points for spelling David's name incorrectly. David Gilmour. A common mistake. Also, you would have seen this show in 1994, not 1995. Again, a simple mistake considering how long ago it was. It's a shame how short the Division Bell Tour was (all shows in 1994), considering it would be their last tour. The Momentary Lapse of Reason Tour was a very long tour, but I was just a tad too young to go. Fortunately, I caught two shows in 1994. Foxboro Stadium and Yankee Stadium.
