**Zimsar10** · 21st June 2011, 22:30

Roger Waters is bringing his extraordinary show The Wall - LIVE! to New Zealand's Vector Arena (shame about the venue, but Roger's sound engineers will work their magic!) next year, 2012!!

Listen to Radio Hauraki tomorrow morning for details!!

Concert trailer/interview here:

Here is some footage I filmed on my Samsung Galaxy S 2, the video is quite good quality, considering the challenging conditions & low light during the concert. It certainly gives you a taste of the amazing visuals at this concert & although not reflected in this video, the sound is equally impressive!

Please remember to turn the volume right down to around 30-40% before playing & watch at 720p on You Tube & HD on Vimeo:

I had the amazing pleasure & luck to meet Roger Waters & his lead guitarist David Kilminster in person on May 21 this year, after attending his Manchester Show on May 20, as part of our European Tour. It was an absolutely mind boggling concert, that EVERY Pink Floyd fan should NOT! miss!!

Takes a Cantabrian....still in ChCh, to crack EQ jokes.

**Spearfish** · 22nd June 2011, 07:20

Will be a good 'un.
I thought the show at north harbour would have been the last.

I guess that's why they built the Berlin Wall in Berlin and not Christchurch.

No worries dude.

I have just heard that Radio Hauraki will not be announcing the concert this week - it will in fact be next week, at an as yet, unconfirmed date.

However, I can say that it's going to be in January 2012 at Vector Arena, Auckland & that he may be performing 3 concerts all up.

Awesome !!!

Just been to the 'Experience one which was way cool, and saw Sir R. Waters in ChCh a few years ago which was just brilliant also.

NOW !!!
Mr Gilmour !!
Get ya butt down to NZ so we can see you and your Stratocaster !!

(Mr Waters doing an acoustic...really cool !!!)

Gilmore wouldnt...

If he did, Id pay anything to attend...and hope they played anything except the wall stuff. Kinda over that album...finally. They have 10 other fucken AMAZING albums, Ive never really understood why the Wall is still their #1. Assume DSOTM is their #2 then?

But even with just Waters going....and playing only the wall stuff....yea am looking forward to it :P

Can't say I was ever a big fan of the Wall myself. Certainly not my #1 Floyd choice.
Went to see Pink Floyd in Auckland back in..87? 88? That was a great show and it didn't seem to suffer from Roger Waters absense.
