Already questioned since 1977 for the simplicity of punk music, with its greatest exponents being the Ramones in the United States and the Sex Pistols in the United Kingdom. So ambitious was his staging that it required excessive travel times from city to city. This meant that they only p...

So it was that for the first time in its care...

Mark Blake, in his biographical book Comfortably numb: the inside story of Pink Floyd, tells about this. The bass player spoke contemptuously to Ezrin, but he was not intimidated: “At the beginning, there was a mom...
As if the band’s problems were few, the excessive ostentation of their tours had left Pink Floyd bankrupt. Their lawyer advised them that the only solution to avoid losing everything was to abandon their residence in the UK and not return for 365 days. Thus, they had to earn as much as possible outside the country to be free from the excessively hi...
Roger didn’t want a tour as such; He was aware that his extravagant ideas could not go around the world, not at least without incurring an inordinate expense. Still, many consider The Wall’s pseudo-tour the most obvious precedent for later macro shows by other music groups, such as the Rolling Stones’ Steel Wheels from 1989-1990 or U2‘s Zoo TV from...
