David Gilmour will “Louder Than Words” Live spielen

In einem sehr interessanten Interview, das David Gilmour vor den beiden Hollywood Bowl Shows gab, fragte man, ob er “Dancing Right In Front Of Me” und etwas von “The Endless River” Live spielen wird! Gilmour antwortete, dass “Dancing Right In Front Of Me” bei den Proben gespielt wurde, bisher aber noch nicht zum Einsatz kam. Es sei eines dieser Lieder, die er spielen wird, wenn das Gefühl nach Veränderung stärker wird. Vom “The Endless River” Album wurde “Louder Than Words” geprobt. “Eines schönen Tages werden wir es Live versuchen”, so Gilmour. Sehr gute Nachrichten. Es bleibt also weiterhin spannend mit Gilmour!

IE: Rattle That Lock builds upon your signature style, but also includes surprise twists like the cool cocktail jazz of “The Girl in the Yellow Dress” and the swinging rhythm of “Dancing Right in Front of Me.” Are you performing those?

David Gilmour: We’re playing “The Girl in the Yellow Dress.” “Dancing Right in Front of Me” is not in our set list. We have rehearsed it, but we haven’t played it on a show yet. It’s one of the ones to come when we feel like a change.

Are you playing anything from The Endless River in your show?

David Gilmour: We’re not. We did “Louder Than Words” in rehearsal, and couldn’t find a place to fit it. One of these days, we’ll try it live. It’s a very funny thing when you play songs that you’ve gotten very used to in the studio, and you know intimately. You think you know everything that that song has got to reveal before you finish it, and before it’s released, even. Then sometimes you play it live, and you realize there’s a whole other side to it. It makes a connection with the audience in a different way. That may be one of those, but I haven’t done that little test yet. It’s been very hectic putting all this thing together and getting it just so. Some of the little experiments are still there to be tried.

Had you considered creating anything under the Pink Floyd banner before Rick passed?

David Gilmour: Even with Rick around, I didn’t want to go back there. I’ve had the best time of my life working in that strange, unknowable symbiosis with those guys. But things have a course, and that course was run. I would have worked with Rick on this solo album. I would have even considered doing a Richard Wright and David Gilmour album together, but I wouldn’t have done anything under the Pink Floyd name. It’s a weight to carry.

Indirekt bestätigt er damit, dass ein Richard Wright und David Gilmour Album sehr wahrscheinlich gewesen wäre. Auf alle Fälle hätte er so ein Projekt einem Pink Floyd Album vorgezogen. Die Barn Jams 2007 belegen mehr als deutlich, dass etwas gemeinsames im Entstehen war! Für die Zukunft plant er bald wieder in Studio zu gehen. Denn es sei viel halbfertiges Material das auf ihn warte und er hat in den vergangenen Monaten neues geschrieben. Versprechen kann und will er nichts.
