In The Flesh (tour)
In The Flesh was a series of worldwide concert tours by Roger Waters that spanned three individual tours over the course of three years (1999, 2000, and 2002). Returning from a 12-year long hiatus from the road, In The Flesh was a showcase of his best known work from his days with Pink Floyd to his most recently released solo album, 1992's Amused to Death. The title is an allusion to the 1977 Pink Floyd tour for the Animals album, as well as the two songs so titled on the album The Wall.
The 27 June 2000 performance at the Rose Garden Arena in Portland, Oregon was later released as the CD and DVD In the Flesh – Live.
Famous quotes containing the word flesh:
“It is the hour when stink and sweat
Subside to let the flesh forget
Affinity for brick and lathe,
The cold necessity to bathe
And certain things one would forget.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
