'Eric Fucking Clapton kids...Sorry Kids. I'm not joking!' - after Nobody Home

1984 Tour Info:
Waters assembled a touring band that consisted of many of the key players on the album The Pros and Cons of Hitch-Hiking, the big surprise being :
Eric Clapton (guitar) (reportedly joining the tour against his management's advice).
Mel Collins (saxophones)
Michael Kamen (keyboards)
Chris Stainton (keyboards and bass guitar)
Andy Newmark (drums)
Tim Renwick (guitar and bass guitar)
Doreen Chanter (backing vocals)
Katie Kissoon (backing vocals)

The first half of the show featured a retrospective of Waters' best-known Pink Floyd songs, complete with vintage films. The songs were performed well, but had been rearranged and given an up-tempo feel, which in some cases didn't work at all well. Clapton, although a competent guitarist, was clearly no match for Gilmour's style on these numbers.

The second half consisted of the entire album. The stage production was very similar Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' shows, using the same three-projector arrangement to project animation and film on to three screens spanning the full width of the back of the stage.
To increase the visual depth, the second half of the show featured three gauze screens (scrims) suspended in front of the projected images. Live-action film by Nicholas Roeg and animation by Scarfe were projected on to both the gauze and the screens behind them.
One screen depicted the motel window, another a lounge table and the third, a huge TV set.
The sets were designed by Mark Fisher and Jonathan Park, who had worked extensively with Pink Floyd, and quadraphonic sound was used.
