Many people entered late into the concert. An estimated 40 thousand people attended this show, which pretty much stopped all the traffic in the vicinities of the Stadium, in the already complicated friday evening streets in this chaotic American megalopole. As it is common in Brazilian culture, many people were drunk out of their minds, though. The crowd was very diverse, age wise, which was nice. This date had chairs added to the front of the venue, at exorbitantly space high ticket prices. This gig is an extra date they added to the South American tour schedule after the initial sales for the December 12 date sold out overnight. An average Paulista won't say "please, excuse me" he (sometimes she) will more likely say "get the out of the way". I found out the crowd in São Paulo (which included people from all around the country) to be specially hostile and ungraceful. Bear in mind Brazilians are not particularly known for their quiet speech and introvert characters. Also one should consider people's hunger and demand for a gig such as this. Not necessarely true respectful and knowledgeable fans (they are aorund, en masse) but many for the more "fashionable" and cool aspects of "following" on something that is famous and popular. Just to put this into context, one have to understand the idolatry level Pink Floyd achieved here in this country.
This recording registers David Gilmour's first ever presentation in Brazil.
Steve Distanislao – Drums/Percussion/Vocals Lineage: CA11 > CA9200 > Zoom H4n > Audacity (tracking, split) > WAV 96 kHz, 24 bit > TLH > FLACĠ7 - Money (false stars 1 & 2, including a really short but sweet Gilmour improv) According to this was shot with a 'Ferguson' camera. The perfect audio-version makes up for that. Sadly the last 2 songs (the best of the show) are missing.Īlso 'Shake Dog Shake/Play for Today/A Strange Day/A Forest' are cut. The audio is a bit distorted on the low notes, but good to listen to. Quality is pretty good for an old VHS tape. One of the better audience recordings I have. Robert's hair was at its best these days )ĪUDIO: Near perfect. 'Pornography' sends shivers down your spine.
Some of the best classic Cure songs are played and the show is very energetic. This was at the benefit festival for Greenpeace: "Soundwaves for Greenpeace". A great show in near perfect quality (audio).
