Torrent Of The Day: Roger Waters (5-22-2007) Phillips Arena, ATL

The Roger Show last Tuesday was awesome. Despite virtually the same show for the fourth time I've seen him, it still blows my mind. My favourite part was the rednecks booing the new anti-Bush song and the flying pig with political graffiti on it. Here's some phlogs from the show:

Portishead just played a secret show at a small venue and played a new song. The excitement and anticipation continues to build. Settle down and watch this:



Menomena will be playing at the Drunken Unicorn on April 3rd. I just listen to their new album Friend and Foe and i liked it alot. Listen to: Muscle 'N Flo

In case you are one of the few who haven't heard the new Arcade Fire, you can listen to an offical stream here. Neon Bible comes out on Tuesday.

Ok, This was the 14th show on the current European tour, and what a show it was!! The venue was a circus type marquee tent on a tarmac carpark just on the outskirts of Cork.
Due to this being in a tent there were no pyrotechnics and a full over head lighting rig was used.
What also makes this show unique is a power cut half way through (at the explosion in Perfect Sense Pt2) causing the main mixing board and the whole PA to go down. All you hear at that point are the onstage monitors and the crowd finish off by singing the end of the song!! There's a 25 minute break while power is resumed and the mixing board reset then the band come back on and continue with the rest of set 1 and go straight into DSOTM (with Nick Mason!)

This is a 2 camera mix and respect has to go to my filming accomplice who got caught filming not once but twice and was subsequently removed from the venue half way through Us and Them, hence the last 45 minutes being a single camera, hey that's the chance us filmers take and the sacrifices we make to bring you this stuff!!

Roger Waters is a Golden God

With all of the Bonnaroo hype this week, the other big deal as far as I'm concerned is the Roger Waters tour storming through the US this summer. Caught him for the third time last September in Chicago and it was the best show I saw all year. Southeastern dates you need to know about:

• May 18th - West Palm Beach, FL, Sound Advice Amphitheatre (AMEX presale this friday, tickets go on sale March 10th)
• May 19th - Tampa, FL, Ford Amphitheatre (AMEX presale this Friday, tickets go on sale March 17th)
• May 22nd - Atlanta, Ga, Phillips Arena (AMEX presale next Friday(23rd), tickets go on sale March 3rd)

I can't find anymore info than that right now, but as soon as we get some, we'll post it. Until then, here's some Roger Waters torrents:
