Wow, all tickets sold out in a matter of several minutes on the regular sale. Think somebody is still popular? lol......

I wasn't lucky enough to get any I kinda wish I went with the pretty awful seats I mentioned now
Well, you're pretty much guaranteed to hear at least half of the set of Pink Floyd songs performed by a former Pink Floyd singer and several members of late PF backing band members, if the past tours are any indication, so why not? (I guess he'll want to debut Louder than Words as well).
I'd buy a ticket in a heartbeat if this tour landed anywhere close to me.
I definitely want to go see it just to hear the Floyd songs as well as some of the recent stuff. Though I doubt he would play "Astronomy Domine" again because Richard isn't here anymore, I would love to hear some rarities.
I wonder if Roger is gearing up for next three-year cycle of nostalgia touring (Animals? The Final Cut?), or will he finally sit down and write some new stuff? (And finish all those live DVDs along the way).
Roger has an assload of unfinished projects, which of them will see the light of day is anyone's guess — but I doubt that he will tour again without releasing a new album first.
Sony Records apparently wants to put out a Blu-ray audio version of Amused to Death in the spring, with the 5.1 mix that James Guthrie premiered last year on it.
It's complete and in the can, just waiting on release. He has finished the Wall solo tour documentary as well, it premiered here at TIFF. That's going to blow some minds. If you saw the tour, you'd know it was anything but a "nostalgia" show.

I love Pink Floyd! My favorite song is Learning to Fly.

Wait, SACD isn't dead?
Not at all, there are a few labels who still specialize in putting them out. Occasionally the major record labels will do it, and it's a format Pink Floyd (and Roger in this case) love and they have the clout for it.
Oh, hello :0
I just watched the film last night with my lady, who loved it. I want to cover my city in Scarfe graffiti.
Still wondering why "What Shall We Do Now" 's studio version has never seen an official on-disc release as far as I'm aware. Contenting myself with a film soundtrack rip.

Does this mean TDSOTM live dvd got canned?
The title of David Gilmour's fourth (or sixth if you're of that opinion) solo album is Rattle That Lock, as was revealed at a recent appearance at the Borris House Festival of Writing with his wife/co-writer Polly Samson. Not much else info on it at the moment, other than that his On an Island co-producers Chris Thomas and Phil Manzanera (who also sings and plays guitar on it) are back on board. Well, that and the announcement of his UK tour which will commence in September, presumably when right around the time the record is to come out.
So I was gonna make Echoes using only hi-res sources (Immersion releases + remasters + pbthal rips), but I ended up making what I consider a better retrospective tracklist. If you like Syd-Floyd, take a deep breath:
01. Astronomy Domine (Live, from Ummagumma)
02. Cluster One
03. The Happiest Days of Our Lives/Another Brick part 2
04. Echoes
05. Hey You
06. Marooned
07. The Great Gig in the Sky
08. Set the Controls (Live, from Ummagumma)
09. Money
10. Keep Talking
11. Sheep
12. Let There Be More Light
13. Sorrow
14. High Hopes
—
01. Shine On You Crazy Diamond II, IV, VII
02. Time
03. The Fletcher Memorial Home
04. Comfortably Numb
05. Atom Heart Mother (one section excised)
06. One of These Days (Live at Pompeii)
07. In the Flesh (both)
08. Signs of Life/Learning to Fly
09. Fat Old Sun
10. Wish You Were Here
11. Dogs (synth wash section edited)
12. Run Like Hell
13. Embryo
14. A New Machine/Terminal Frost
15. Louder Than Words
Everything unlabelled isn't cut for length, so obviously this runs longer than 160 minutes.
1. 5 A.M.
2. Rattle That Lock
3. Faces Of Stone
4. A Boat Lies Waiting
5. Dancing Right In Front Of Me
6. In Any Tongue
7. Beauty
8. The Girl In The Yellow Dress
9. Today
10. And Then...
The rather catchy title track is available to download. And here are the details on the several physical packages, including pre-order info.

I'm going to the Chicago show
Rattle That Lock honestly sounds really boring and dated to me. I'd still go see him live if i could to hear some Pink Floyd stuff but I'm really not digging this song. Hopefully the rest of the album is a bit better.
