I was wondering what albums does then band get a lot of requests from, and the ones that you really look into doing at your next gig?

We get requests from all across the spectrum of Floyd albums... from Syd up to the Division Bell. Since many of the fans who post in the Forum tend to be more 'hardcore' than the average Floyd fan, we usually get requests from albums that aren't as 'mainstream', if you will... like Obscured By Clouds, The Final Cut, Roger Waters solo albums, etc. But if I were to peg one particular album that tends to get mentioned the most, that would probably be Animals.
Cheers!

im actually surprised that it would be animals because i was looking at the the top 5 selling albums in the US and 4 just so happens to be The Wall. That is really surprising to me. Well when you guys come back to columbus or anywhere close to Licking County i am looking forward to some Momentary Lapse of Reason songs. *cough* On the Turning Away *cough* cough*

Popularity does not necessarily mean requests... and we have done The Wall in it's entirety, as a major production, quite a few times over the years, as well as regularly performing at least 4 or 5 songs at every show.

The Wall to me is such a great concept album. Have you ever done extended versions of Comfortably Numb or any other song from the Wall?

I've seen WYWH do extended Numb solos, acoustic versions and things I never thought I'd hear done live. (Sometimes I wish that they'd do a little more "jamming" on certain songs, but then, that might just be the altered show-state talking, who knows? They do get it right every time no matter the length.)
The Acoustic set you guys did at HOB a couple years ago was awesome. Just plain freaking awesome. I'd pay to see that again. Twice.

Well you are in luck...it just so happens our favorite Floyd tribute also has a new side project, with almost all the members it appears participating: Acoustic Side of the Moon. I haven't seen them yet, but I have seen 2 or so acoustic WISH shows so I can only imagine what it's like........but must be cool. Here is a link to the page on WISH's website: www.floydtribute.com/acousticfloydtribute.htmPS-This band has eventually filled everyone of my real requests so far.......although I still have some "pipe dream" requests lol. |
