:( I saw it in DC with my Dad in July... it was really great. He's old, but he is crazy-passionate, so maybe he'll return to the stage for another tour (or at least do one-time things like this!)

Or hey maybe lame-ass David Gilmour (marry me) will go back on tour. Or maybe they'll even stop being babies, make up, and tour!
