    I've got tickets to the Wall Live at the Xcel Energy Center tomorrow night. Now Gilmour might join him? This would literally be the highlight of my short life if it happens...

    NOT OMAHA ONE TIME!

Local scenester, writer and music nut Chuck Terhark, however, happened to be dining there for his birthday on Monday and says he is absolutely certain Gilmour was with them. "Waters was wearing a marching hammers hoodie, which was hilarious," Terhark said (marching hammers being part of "The Wall's" animation).

    Here's the confusing part, though: Monday was an off night for the tour. Waters is set to perform in Omaha tonight, and then he has his Xcel Energy Center gig in St. Paul on Wednesday night. It's very feasible that he is spending all three nights (Monday through Wednesday) in the Twin Cities as a base and only flying straight in and out of Omaha. That's not exactly a ringing endorsement of Omaha's hospitality, but I doubt anybody in Omaha will be complaining if Gilmour does indeed appear at the show tonight.

    If he's not there tonight: My money is then on St. Paul. Maybe this terrible weather we're having will convince Gilmour to stay put in the Twin Cities and not travel to Omaha. Bring on the snow and freeze!

    That would be sick! I saw the show a couple of weeks ago at MSG and it was amazing. Going again next weekend too. Enjoy, and hopefully DG will make an appearance!

    Cross your fingers, but don't count on it. That would be big.

    Yeah, I'm definitely not letting my hopes get too high. Either way, I'm a huge Floyd fan and will not be disappointed, with or without Gilmour. And as a Floyd fan, just the fact that Waters and Gilmour are having meals together is a great sign for the future...

    WOWOWOW!!! pretty excellent to hear that they're at least hangin out together!!! to those that have seen this most recent Wall tour, does anyone know why there are multiple shows in the same city? for example, there are three shows in philly on nov. 8, 9 and 11th. Are they different shows/ setlists? or what? what's the dif?

    I believe those are all the same show... Waters added some dates during the tour because of such high demand.

    I saw the show in Hartford on the 15th...absolutely amazing. My wife got me tickets for my birthday and although she had heard some Floyd songs, she had no idea what type of show it would be. She was definitely blown away by all the extra stuff you get other than live music, and when we got home she started looking for tickets to the next show. You're going to have a blast.

    Waters and Gilmour got together and played for a couple of hundred people a few months back.

    Lot's of Rumors that Waters wanted to do this tour with Gilmour, but they did not have enough time to get it together and Gilmour did commit to playing one show on this tour with Waters. It could happen.

    Gilmour has already said he would appear at a one or more shows to give the DVD coming out a more authentic feel.

    Just got confirmation that Gilmour did not play in the Omaha show...

    Still not getting my hopes up, but things are looking good!
