The wall was performed live in only 4 cities (LA, NYC, London, Berlin) because it was too big and expensive to move. My dad saw it and to this day it’s one of his favorite experiences. They literally built a styrofoam wall in front of the band as they played until at one point you can’t even see them.

Well anyway about 15 years ago I’m showing the old man YouTube for the first time. And I ask him, is there any old memories we should go look up, he says, see if there’s any videos from The Wall. And there is! An entire bootleg of the concert from 1981. It was magical, I gave my dad a Time Machine.

Thanks YouTube!
