Pink Floyd Live in Venice (1989 TV Special)
7/10
Slow and impersonal
16 September 2021
I love Dark Side of the Moon, Animals and Wish you Were Here as much as anyone. This late 80s concert video was a tough watch for me. I had to really try hard to remember why I liked them so much in the 70s. Venice Italy? Floating stage? You'd never know due to the poor film direction. Dark shadowy buildings and an audience even even more hidden. No sense of a floating stage at all. It may as well been a film of a dress rehearsal in a warehouse. The post Waters material is lukewarm at best and at worst an excuse for the lead guitarist to repeat himself repeatedly. Haha. The second half is better because at least I can almost remember why I liked them so much in the 70s.
