Whoops, I lost

Well I guess I'll just go ahead and admit it.
I got sick. I don't ever get sick. I'm not used to it, I swear. If I was, I probably could've continued, but I couldn't.
I failed at the 30 days of Floyd thing. THERE I SAID IT.
Whatever sickness I had, it was just an energy drain. It wasn't even the worst thing ever, but juggling school and sickness meant that I just didn't have time for Floyd.
I did start writing something when I was sick, though, which I will post here after this page break, as is. Because I love things unfinished for some reason. There's some weird life in it.
I ended up wanting to do the first Dark Side concert because it is special for many reasons. I think I even say that somewhere. I already did a Dark Side concert here, and I danced around things I already said. So there.
I will be back for the Early Years box set. I am throwing a party just for it. There will be pulled pork and plates of ketchup packets that spell out "it's only a lifetime".

An old W.I.P. paper on Altamont

I did this sometime this year, but never finished it. I really wanted to, too, but I just ran out of motivation. I'm sick, and I'm not used to being sick, so instead of Pink Floyd I'll just post this as is. I love posting unfinished works for some reason, especially one like this where there's some small notes.

I think this started as a sort of documentary-based script that just ended up a report as time went on. I just really wanted to includes sources.

I spent a lot of time with that's already here, diving into personal accounts, old newspaper articles around the time (very interesting actually due to all the false information further away the source) and the remaining footage, as well as cross referencing concerts the bands played around the same year for comparisons in set list and "comfortability" levels. Interestingly enough, through this I found out that 1969 Santana is pretty unknown territory. There's not a lot of known set lists from this time period besides the obvious Woodstock concert. There's a little more information for 1968 live Santana, though, so it's just really weird.
And yes, those MLA sources are wrong, but I like having web URLs in my sources for easy access.

30 Days of Floyd, Day 15 - May 15, 1988

May 15, 1988

Veterans Stadium, Philadelphia, PA, USA

Welcome to the month of Pink Floyd, where I’ll be celebrating the 30-day countdown until the release of the Early Years box set. Technically, it’s 31 days, but I’ll be celebrating the 31^st day differently… maybe. I’m bad at commitment.

The plan is to look at 30 random concerts from Pink Floyd history, even going past the content covered in the Early Years.

I finally get to talk about a 1988 concert. It’s one of my favorite for several reasons, and it’s in Philly. May 15, 1988.

This is rated M for Philadelphia.

I think it would be a national crime if I didn’t talk about this concert. September 17, 1969, the most popular recording from Floyd.

Another 1967 concert, this time its September 13, 1967. I’m tired today, so a shorter concert is a more realistic option for me.
