Way back when (in the ’70’s), I got a chance to go to Frankfurt to see Pink Floyd live in concert. It was a terrific event and I really enjoyed both the music and the show. I guess this was a famous tour and I remember it distinctly because it had a giant pig come out from the stage and circle over the crowd. They also had a large circular screen which showed artistic depictions of images from their albums including “rock dinosaurs” and prisms. | |
One of the songs I’ve always liked by them is a hauntingly melancholy plea to a lost friend, “Wish You Were Here“. | |
Sometimes I feel like another lost soul livin’ in a fishbowl… | |
My mother-in-law fell recently and is now in the hospital with a fractured bone in her back. My wife is upset that she can’t be there for her mum, so I’m upset for her, too. If you pray, please offer up a prayer for her mum to get better soon. If you don’t pray, be nice to someone and (I believe) the positive energy will still reach her. | |
I hope you’ll check out the lyrics on my Poems page and then go listen to the song on your favorite music provider. Remember to go listen to as much live music as you can and support your local arts. | |
