This is what I think they'll play rather than what I'd like them to.

Wish You Were Here
Comfortably Numb
Run Like Hell
Another Brick...possibly
Money
Time
Us and Them
One of These Days

[among others obviously...]

I'm hoping they'll get an hour and a bit on stage. Depends how long the actual concert goes on for. If they FOLLOW Coldplay, I'll be overjoyed! It's going to be great seeing the KINGS showing everyone how it's done!

As for Roger Waters...HOW?! I'm hoping that will all come clear either onstage via band/audience banter or in a documentary or something...

The need for a ticket for ANYTHING has never been so desperate. I can't take no for an answer and I've only texted twice!!!

Ah well, this should be a fantastic show! I wasn't that bothered about U2 on the bill to be honest since it's obviously going to be short and sweet and early on PLUS I'll have seen them three days before. Coldplay I'm seeing at Glastonbury. The rest are amazing and all make for a great mix...but when my friend said "Oi, Paddy! The Floyd are doing Live8" I couldn't believe it...

It's now the SOLE reason I intend to go to this concert! Along with Radiohead and U2 I basically owe and musical "talent" I may show to these guys thanks to the time I spent learning their stuff...

It's insane, I'm 16 and the Floyd are obviously [until now!!!

] a legend of the past and I never would have thought in a million years they would have got back together! I did have an inkling when Live8 was announced though...who WOULDN'T?!

Yeah, thats right.. I am inviting myself

Only if there's room!

DaveC · 06-12-2005, 12:01 PM

Unfortunately, the only possible way to get tickets to the London show is to live in the UK.

Let's figure out what they'll play.

We know they obviously won't play anything from Piper, AMLoR, or TDB. The non-Rog/non-Dave stuff won't have a chance. Obscure tracks (or anything pre-Dark Side for that matter) probably won't be around either. The Final Cut is probably not something any of them want to revisit. So that leaves DSotM, WYWH, Animals, and The Wall. Which is what would be expected.

So let's see what they could play:
DSotM: Well they could play the whole thing as their set, but it's unlikely. The only real things I can think of to be played at an event like Live 8 from Dark Side would be Us and Them, Brain Damage/Eclipse and Breathe. Time is all about death, Money is all about...well, money.
WYWH: Shine On is definitely out by virtue of its length and the fact that it's about Syd. Welcome to the Machine...ehh, it's possible, but not likely. Have A Cigar, definitely NOT. Wish You Were Here...about the only really possible (probable, in fact) song from WYWH.
Animals: PotW...nope. Dogs...nope. Pigs(3DO)...it's possible, if it's directed at the politicians at the G-8. Sheep...certainly not.
The Wall: It's a damn guarantee that they'll do something from The Wall, especially with Bob Geldof having organized all this. In The Flesh? would be hilarious. ABitW2 would be possible. Hey You is also possible too. Comfortably Numb is absolutely going to be in the set. The Show Must Go On would be another hilarious one. Other than that I can't see anything else from the Wall going on there.

I wonder how long they'll get to play? Maybe an hour or so?

All of us Floyd fans should go together...

Hey I can dream out loud.

Funny to see how quickly Dave has thrown himself on the wagon....

Zoots · 06-12-2005, 12:06 PM

Dave C, that sounds very close to what I would guess. They should play 'In The Flesh?'

But let's see if your predictions come true this time. We'll have another hat ready nonetheless.

phanan · 06-12-2005, 12:08 PM

I wanna go too!!

Damn, this is so awesome. Let us hope that things go well and it spurs them on to other things...

Haha! Are you kidding?! We need this wagon jam-packed!! All is forgiven, non-believers...!

They should just do 'Animals' start to finish

Money could be played...in some display or "irony"...

Zoots · 06-12-2005, 12:10 PM

blahblahblah... I'm sooo jealous of you right now!

Well, I do hope you get the ticket and then post lots of pics.

gareth brown · 06-12-2005, 12:11 PM

Haha! I'll try my best!!

Well, geez, can you really blame me for doubting this?

Gimme a break here.

gareth brown · 06-12-2005, 12:17 PM

ZING!

Aardvark747 · 06-12-2005, 12:18 PM

They will play

Wish You Were Here
Another Brick....
C.Numb
Run Like Hell

I'm sure of it......

Zoots · 06-12-2005, 12:19 PM

Hey Aardvark, you're in the UK aren't you? Are you trying for tickets?

Aardvark747 · 06-12-2005, 12:26 PM

Yep - I have sent a text. Now I just have to wait and see.....and HOPE!!

gareth brown · 06-12-2005, 12:28 PM

mmm, it's ten times worse now Floyd are basically eclipsing the line-up!

cujo · 06-12-2005, 12:32 PM

Should be interesting.

It would make my day if they played Sorrow, if by some small chance they brought out A Momentary Lapse of Reason.
