Roger Waters brought his spectacular, pyrotechnics-infused production of “The Wall” to the Tacoma Dome Saturday night, Dec. 11, to the delight of thousands of longtime Pink Floyd fans.
Waters’ magnum opus drew a multi-generational crowd of fans who sang along to the many songs that make up one of rock’s masterpieces.
The band included guitarist Snowy White, keyboardist Jon Carin (a veteran of Pink Floyd and Waters tours) and vocalist Robbie Wycoff, performing Pink Floyd member David Gilmour’s vocal parts. Also featured was G. E. Smith, a former lead guitarist for Hall & Oates and musical director of “Saturday Night Live.”

I have to say I was very disapointed in the show. It seemed he was lipsynching to most of the 2nd half of the show and from where I was sitting we could see a large table with several people sitting backstage – that alone ruined the entire set. Also at the end of the show the lights came up bright, he introducted the band and immediately techs were on stage tearing it down. Couldn’t they have at least waited until the crowd started exiting ?
All in all it wasn’t worth the trip from Seattle in the pouring rain,and the money spent on the tickets.
