The Memorial Fund for Disaster Relief.

I've searched the internet high and low for information on this charity, bit to no avail. I know it's mentioned on the DVD and therefore must have existed. Does anyone have any information, as I'd like to start the article on it? -- Funky Monkey (talk) 02:53, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Strange Information

In the tracklisting of the concert, the track "In the Flesh?" is credited to "Scorpions". However if you click the "In the Flesh?"-link the song in said to be by Pink Floyd. Just wanted to bring it some attention. Have i misunderstood something? --83.72.7.63 21:39, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The song is by Pink Floyd. Roger Waters was the band's previous frontman and was a major creative force on the PF album [[[The Wall]], which is the album preformed live at this concert. When Roger did the concert, his membership with the group had been over for a few years., so the band that played the album was never asked to do this concert. Instead, Roger made it a star-studded extravanza, with artists like The Band, Ute Lemper and the aformented Scorpions. MajorB 22:33, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just to comment on "so the band that played the album was never asked to do this concert." In an interview Roger said that he had in fact asked the rest of the gang to come play with him, but they said no... (which is a shame) Clq 15:55, 12 March 2007 (UTC) EDIT: I see from the article that the above appears to be false, but I am quite sure I have read somewhere that he did ask the rest of Pink Floyd. Ill try to track it down. Clq 16:28, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

5 Million?

5 Million people in 35 countries watched it on TV? Should be closer to 500 Millions, I guess...? --81.223.145.66 10:08, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Should be cited either way, je guess... 205.188.117.13 10:35, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There are typically two figures for this kind of international broadcast — how many people could possibly watch it, a measure of how widely available the broadcast is, and how many people actually did watch it. The second number is of course usually much, much less than the first number, but press releases and credulous media people often confuse the two. In the case of this particular broadcast, 500 million for the first number and 5 million for the second number both sound possible. 192.102.82.253 20:49, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The mistakes (in the concert)

I remember listening to it live (and still have it on tape from the radio broadcast - somewhere.) Anyway, from what I remember, during the power messup on ABitW pt1, they actually rolled the production backwards and redid the song.

Also, on Mother, the guys they had singing the Mother parts didn't know they lyrics and really flubbed it up. From what I had heard is that after the show was over they re-recorded that track, people in the audience who were leaving heard it and turned around. This also is why they are holding the lyrics and Roger was standing there kinda prompting them.

Whether not any of this is true or not, I don't know - that's just what I remember from 15 or so years ago.

Concert vs. DVD

The page is linked to as being about the DVD (2003) and as being about the concert. In the article itself there is not a clear distinction between these two subjects. Is the tracklist on the DVD the same as the original setlist? Information about who recorded/mixed/produced the DVD and about the artwork (which is not really special) are missing. Should the concert and the DVD be seperate articles, or does this article need a clear DVD-section? --Leoremy 22:01, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Jerry Hall was criticized for her part as the groupie in the track One of My Turns."

Where? By who? Why? Citation, or a bit more info? Clq 15:57, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Roger Waters's Lip-Synced Performance

To anyone who has seen this amazing show, it should noted that Roger Waters completely lip synced his lyrics while every other artist sang their heart out. Autopilots 09:52, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
