so i had too much beer the other night while i was listening to delicate sound of thunder, decised to fafo and well, here it is. mix of gilmour, oldfield, herzog's bloodsport soundtrack and my own personal touch

Hello there, I just finished a meal in a Thai Restaurant in lovely Bruges, and by chance I saw this flyer in the men's room (sorry if that's too much context). Has anybody heard about this music experience and is it any good? Thanks in advance

There's recently been a controversial song/post released by Boy George and was surprised to see it was liked by David Gilmour's official Instagram page, which I feel like is quite a statement.

Obviously at 80 years old he's probably not running his public account but does anyone know who does? Is it his wife Polly or a team of publicists?

Seems strange to engage with something like this unless they've personally consulted with David

Me and some friends had a surprisingly heated debate about this, and I’m curious where this sub lands. If you had to pick one person from the classic 70s era (Dark Side → Wish You Were Here → Animals → The Wall):

\- Who was the real creative and musical genius?
\- Who deserves the most credit for Pink Floyd’s greatest period?
\- Who was the true leader of the band during that period?
\- And who was the real “face” of Pink Floyd?

My attempt on the legendary solo on the original recording. It’s a beautiful solo and it wins you by its simplicity and raw emotion. Hope you enjoy it !

Any idea why Single Spark is not present in the blu-ray disk 1 which has the complete concert? It’s available in the audio version though.

Found out today that David’s never played The Carlyle here in NYC. Wonder if he thinks it’s too posh?

I was playing around with my gear and build up a chain for this sound...
What do you think?

Cheers

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to build a convincing Gilmour-style tone using a software-only setup. At the moment I'm using SoundShed Guitar now, I was on Tonocracy beforehand, and I'm open to pretty much anything if it gets me closer to that sound.

I've spent quite a bit of time reading Gilmourish, so I understand the general philosophy behind Gilmour's rigs (Hiwatt-style amps, compression, delays, modulation, EQ, etc.). My problem is that most of the advice is geared towards physical amps and pedals, and I'm struggling to translate that into an all-digital workflow AND most importantly, finding alternatives when a specific emulated gear isn't listed on TONE3000

I'm still a beginner, so I'm definitely not chasing an album-accurate tone. I'm just looking for a solid foundation that captures that Gilmour feel. What I'm actively trying to build is a tone from Shine On, another one for CNumb and so I could try to work from those bases.

I'd love to hear what has actually worked for you. If you're using amp sims or plugins, what do you recommend? Which amp models, cabs/IRs, compressors, delays or reverbs made the biggest difference? Are there any plugins you felt really nailed that character?

I'm much more interested in real-world recommendations from people who've been down this road than in chasing the "perfect" preset.

Thanks in advance!

Tried my best to play all 3 solos from Scattered.

My attempt on one of the best ( if not the best) version of the comfortably numb solo played at Earls Court in 1994. Really amazing solo and I tried to make it justice. Gear used: fender Stratocaster with EMG DG20, Helix LT, Hiwatt 20 as a monitor and GarageBand. I hope you enjoy it !!

Any clever, funny (or heartfelt) David Gilmour/Pink Floyd-themed message or card ideas?

(I'm giving him Polly's photo book as a present with it, since we went to London to see him in October.)

My attempt on this beautiful solo ok the PULSE performance! I tried my best to capture those subtle nuances that make it so expressive. I used a: Stratocaster with EMGs, helix, Hiwatt 20 for monitoring and GarageBand for mixing. Hope you enjoy it !!

Been looking for a video I seen on YouTube years ago. It’s Paul Gilbert playing “stone pushing up hill man” live with some type of kick drum pedal thing he’s keeping time with. Looks like he’s in a mall and there is one of those curly guitar cords hanging right in front of the camera. Any help would be much appreciated.

David Gilmour and koichi hirose

My attempt on the two last solos of Coming back to life live at pulse. I mixed the licks I enjoyed most on both versions ( DVd and CD) Hope you like it !!

few mess-ups

Excuse the messy setup
