Went to see Us & Them today. I'll leave politics aside as that's no good business, but the movie itself was alright. Sound was mixed well and the footage was interesting. There were some very cool effects with LEDs and drop screens, plus there were are lot of Gerald Scarfe animation outtakes projected behind the band. Always good to see Scarfe' work. One of the more impressive things was recreating Battersea Power station over the FOH. Again, screens and projectors, but still very cool and unexpected. One of the many themes that Waters has really taken to heart in his lifetime. I kind of get it, growing up near all the old CPP/CEI buildings. They stuck out like a sore thumb, much as I imagine Battersea did/does again.

The girl singers tho... Man. I really wanted to dig them more. Claire is the penultimate and no one will be able to do what she did. Durga was really friggin close though. The new girls? Meh. Not so much. They sounded good together, but it just wasn't as moving. I don't think there's another twenty years to wait for a new set to come through. Even Durga is old, though I think she still tours.

If I had known twenty five years ago when I was digging for Publius that I'd be debating the highlights of a show in 2019 I'd have thought you crazy.

And also, I can't listen to 'Great Gig in the Sky' with a straight face after writing a fiction around it. Just... nope. Makes me smile.

Gotta try to stay up a few more hours to get back on night shift. Uugh. I could have been asleep by now. So I'm going to try and go back to writing, see how much of it makes the cut later.
