A great evening. I’m also excited about the musical quality. Great versions of the well-known classics, only Money and Comfortably Numb very close to the original. The new David Gilmour in Jung has pleased me vocally and visually great. From afar, he really went through as David. This gave it even more atmosphere.
As expected, Roger gave a long speech on Palestine Israel and WDR’s withdrawn support. Unfortunately, 50% of the audience did not understand the topic. So a young lady in front of me screamed yeaaahh every time as the WDR was called. Unbelievable that so little English knowledge is still available. The celebrated the transmitter, although the words of Roger are absolutely critical are entitled evil.
Now I am on the train to Munich. Tomorrow follows the 2nd Show, which I look at from him this year. Looking forward to the details that I’ll discover only the second time.
