Pigs On The Rockies

An in-complete, but a good audio recording. Also available in a video recording. But same songs are recorded video or audio.(I included 'Have a Cigar' from 'Echoes In The Garden' at the end of the show, after 'Comforatbly Numb' for audio credits)

Notes on Recording:
---------------------
I did not use 'highest quality' recording equipment for the show. I only used a Canon PowerShot digital camera to record the show (well, at leaset part of it). I usaly record shows with this camera and the quality always turned out shitty, but this time for some reason the quality turned out great for both audio and video parts. I don't know if the sound Roger was using was the purpose or just the volume of the show. However durring Us and Them there is bad but very little mic overload. It happens once durring Eclipse to but only in the start of it. Besides that, the recording came very nice. The reason I did not record every song is because I did not have enough recording room.
I had 1.5GB witch was not enough at all so I only recorded the best songs. The reason for the black-outs on three of the songs is because security wanted no one recording and there was a gard in from of my face and I had to wait for him to leave beore I started to video record. The Pepsi Center is a sports arena so I did not expect great sound quality at this place, but Roger most likely used all of his own stuff and the sound at the venue was excellent!

Notes for the Show:
--------------------
Here is the full story of what I did, (if you care). I did not have tickets to the show untill 6:00 PM the day of the show. As always for every show, I got tickets at the Box Office. They opened up floor tickets, EEE row 8 seat 2, at the time and I grabbed them for $126 each. I was very happy. So I went across the street to the bar and met some of my freinds. Going in the place I also encountered at Roger Waters worker who was handing out cards for "The Definitve Pink Floyd Radio Show" at floydpodcast.com. You may know the site. I heard a part of one of his podcasts in the bar. It was a live Pigs 3 Different Ones from Montreal 1977 in the bar!! So at about 7:15PM, 15 minutes after the doors opened, I got in and I went to look at my seat and I saw that I was a row in front of the soundboard. I was dead center from the stage.
You may think that this is a good thing, well thats what I thought untill everyone got to their seats and they were all standing up, so I was left not seeing a thing. Then in Have a Cigar I moved to the right side, and those were the best seats in the house. I saw the whole band up close playing and looking at us. But at the end of Leaving Beirut, a prick security gard and yelled at me to show her my ticket, so once she found out that I was actully suposed to sit in EEE she orderd me to go back to my real seat.
I watched Sheep at my EEE seat and then 2nd half I moved to the left side of the stage and spent the rest of the show there. Thats why every song up to DSOTM was in a different position.
The show was excellent, the best Roger Waters show I have ever seen. The energy was spectacular and Roger was very into it. It was a better show than all his other previous shows. The sound was excellent as I have explained and I think this mini 2008 tour is going to be a great one for Roger. Looking forward to hearing other recordings for this tour, but for now, mine is the best.
