Pink Floyd Madison Square Garden October, 1987

Pink Floyd played a three night stand at Madison Square Garden in October. 1987 without linchpin Roger Waters who battled with the band for years over ownership of the Pink Floyd brand. Honestly, I have no recollection of this tour s and no record of which date I attended until I can dig into my extensive ticket stub collection. I did see this version of Pink Floyd at Yankee Stadium where my bride and I had floor seats on the field; I think this may have been my only concert at Yankee Stadium as it is not a place I would ordinarily travel to, particularly for a baseball game. I have more recently attended a few Roger Waters solo tours, including performances highlighting the iconic “The Wall” which will likely hold up for all time. One concert that I regret not going to was the last David Gilmour New York City gig that took place at Radio City Music Hall which I was told, by another voracious live music lover, was one of the best shows that she had ever seen. Roger Waters will be back on tour at an arena near you in 2022 after yearlong Covid postponements.
