Stuka dive bombers crashing into the stage and exploding. A 50ft tall teacher stomping across the stage. The wall itself, built durin...

Dave Gilmour is on a promise to play the guitar solo on c. Numb at ONE show only.

The only shows that are being filmed are the ones in London.

I have a one in five chance of seeing them reunited.

Can you tell I am a little excited?

For Fingers benefit....

This time tomorrow.

I will be sat in front of a wall.

At the O2 arena.


The wall being built mainly by a Mr George Roger Waters.

Allegedly the best gig ever.

Eat your heart out!

We don't need no education.....

After only 8 months, 4 days and 20 hours......

I flew.

At Horden.

It may have only been a top to bottom, but I got in a good bit groundhandling as well as the walk up from the beach.

Good to be back! :) :)

Mad Dog thinks the meetings are trash only because he can remember meetings when pteradactyls turned up for some flying tips! If you abandon the monthly meeting you will lose the heart of the club.
