Oh wow, so I haven’t updated this blog in a while. “Is there anybody out there?” ;P I hope I still have a few followers out there… So I’ve drawn a lot since my last drawing (you can see some of my recent work on my DeviantART gallery HERE), but I haven’t had the time to update my art here… Sorry about that!
Lots of things have happened since last too. Last Saturday (May 7) I went to see Roger Waters live in concert. Yup, I was lucky to see his “The Wall” show in Copenhagen, Denmark, along with 50 000 other fans! For the ones who don’t know who he is, Waters is a former member of Pink Floyd. Only the best band EVER (in my humble opinion…)! I grew up listening to Pink Floyd because dad is a huge PF himself. I never got over the fact that he got to see Pink Floyd live when I was still too young to go to any concerts. So when we heard about Waters’ “The Wall” tour in Europe, we just knew we had to get tickets, no matter how much they’d cost!
The show itself was beyond amazing. It was such an experience. I’ve got to admit that I got quite touched when the show started and it just hit me that “Damn, I’m looking at The Wall!!!”, a show that I’d seen so many time on my dad’s old video tapes… It was so surreal…so amazing and wonderful. I just didn’t want it to be over. Waters might be 67 (I think), but damn – he STILL got it! He sounded exactly like he did 30 years ago, when “The Wall” album was released. *sigh* I wish I could turn back time to last Saturday again. Another thing that I loved about this show was that I got to share that experience with my old man (and my sister too). Awesome weekend, for sure!
Alright, enough about that…
Here’s my latest drawing; Roger Waters, of course. The drawing itself was easy to draw. A lot of black…
By the way, this is a photograph of the drawing. I’m planning on scanning it, to get a better quality of it. Hope you still like it!
Roger Waters
Wow – cool artwork. Just been to see RW in London on Thursday last week when David Gilmour made his appearance. Awesome!
Thanks a lot for the comment on my drawing! I just read your blog entry about the Waters show that you went to. Wow, I’m almost a bit jealous of you now! Saw the clips of the reunion on YouTube – what a moment! I’d heard about the rumour about Gilmour performing at one of Waters’ shows and of course I was hoping that it would be the show that I went to…although at the same time I was pretty certain that he’d show up at one of his London gigs…
I’m glad you were there to experience that!
[...] the only band that I have to see before I die. I’ve already seen “The Wall” by Roger Waters…the closest that I can get to Pink Floyd today. Once I see KoL…I can die happy. Not [...]
