    He would sell out if he did Darkside Tour again.

    Would much rather see him play the full "Amused to Death" album, then Dark Side again.

    It's a bridge too far in the current climate. I love The Wall, and - while I realise some people had problems at the O2 - I had an excellent seat upstairs and I regard it as one of the best shows I've ever seen. However, like a lot of others, I was happy to leave it at that, and I am not going to the Aviva show. If he hadn't played the O2 and was bringing the show here for the first time, it'd be a no-brainer, and the sales would have been much stronger, but when people have seen it so recently, forking out to see it again, regardless of its undoubted quality, is too much to ask.

    Its 2 years since "The Wall" last played here.

    Theres folks on other threads here going to 5 Springsteen shows in a 2 week period!

    This production of the Wall is significantly larger than the indoor shows of 2011.

    Depressing to see a gig of this quality be overlooked by the masses for the likes of Mumford and Sons etc.:confused:

    He'll probably mix it up a bit, play different sets at different venues.

    Plus that sort of thing is very generic . Like Meatloaf .

    People who have no interest in rock seem to love him like Bono. Anything yankee and cool.

    Pink Floyd are a whole different thing altogether.

    More specialist listening . I think i'm safe to say that here?

    Agreed, Springsteen is very easy listening . The masses think its rock and roll and edgy but in reality its fairly middle of road stuff. Waters definitely doesn't have the same mass appeal.
