Show #50, Release date: 3. February, 2006Originally Show #1, Air date: 20. March, 2004 In the Flesh concert #61, at Montreal's Olympic Stadium, 6. July 1977, during which the famous spitting incident occurred. This was the concert that broke the camel's back with obnoxious, large stadium crowds which intern inspired Roger's idea for building The Wall. This was the last show of the tour and the last time Animals would be performed live by the Floyd. It was also the last time Roger would perform Wish You Were Here and Money with Pink Floyd until 28 years later for the famous Live8 reunion. It's an audience recording from the floor section. Sound quality is about a 3.75 on a scale of 1 to 5, (5 being the best) and runs 2hrs 35mins in its entirety, unedited. * Set one: 1. Sheep 2. Pigs On The Wing (part 1) 3. Dogs 4. Pigs On The Wing (part 2) 5. Pigs (3 different ones) Set two: 10. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (parts 1-5) 11. Welcome To The Machine 12. Have A Cigar 13. Wish You Were Here 14.

- First off, must have been AWESOME to get to see Animals and Wish You Were Here in their entirety live. But why did they not play Animals in the same sequence as on the album? Did they usually play it out of order live, or were they just sleepy and forgot which song came where? Just curious
- I am a HUGE!! fan of Pink Floyd. I have liked them eevr since a local radio station played all of Dark Side Of The Moon On the Radio, a little under 4 years ago. I now consider it one of their weaker efforts but thats an opinion, not a true fact. Animals is by far my favorite album of Floyd's. Wish You Were Here is third, behind Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. I have listened to this maybe 13 times over the last three months, and I can't download it. I've tried numerous times. If possible I was hoping to know how I can aquire or download this show. It is sad they never released it as an official Live LP. Btu never the less I am hoping you can give me an answer to my pickle.
Thanks
