Advantages: Great performance by Craig Disadvantages: Far too hot, long waits, loud music and booming base
My daughter and I recently attended a Craig Davidconcert at Cardiff International Arena, for her 18th birthday. We were pleasantly surprised at how quick the queue went down, once the doors opened. However, the concert was due to commence at 7.30pm, but the 'special guests' did not appear until nearly 8pm, and we were not told who they were (we still don't know!).

The Concert Itself.....
So, we see David Gilmour strumming a few practice chords, and then playing the unmistakeable introduction to Shine on you Crazy Diamond, a tune just about all Pink Floyd fans will know well, and have in their collection, its also a very moody piece of music too, played like this, it also shows how versatile Gilmour is as a musician as he skillfully moves from one chord sequence to another with ease, when the vocals do come in we are in full flow of the song and its so refreshing to hear it played like this, and it sets the mood for the whole DVD really, all very laid back, atmospheric and beautifully played...No special effects needed here.........Not a Flying Pig in Sight.....
So I shall now brielfy review the rest of the songs on the DVD.
Terrapin..... is next, which is a very old Syd Barrett song, and once again ...
