Rodger didn't OD he was in incredible pain from hepatitis!! The doctor gave him a muscle relaxant / some kind of antibiotic and he said he couldn't move his arms during the 1977 concert in Philadelphia!! He was worried because he thought he was playing terribly but the audience was going crazy anyway. He also said it was the longest 3 hours of his life but since the audience it was loving it he became Comfortably Numb thus half the catalyst for the lyrics.

The Beatles made the guitar gently weep. Gilmour made it scream out in the beautiful agony of the worst heartbreak you have ever had combined with all the wonderful that came before it. I've listened to this solo 100s of times (and was at a concert on the Pulse Tour in 1993) and it still hits me every single time.

It is kinda funny how we oldsters suggest Floyd when you’ve just loved Zeppelin. To many of us, myself included, they are each high water marks of classic rock: each very different from one another in genre and feel, but equally magnificent in their talent and execution. They are my two favorite classic bands, and that seems to be true for so many of my contemporaries.

So happy you understood the full power of that song. And that was not just "a" guitar solo, it was THE guitar solo. Pink Floyd doing Comfortably Numb at Pulse. Very little even comes close.
A thought. Don't know if you guys know it, but touring is HARD. On the road for months at a time, living out of hotels, eating weird food. You don't always feel great. Everyone has off nights. (Often the audience can't completely tell, but these are human beings, not robots.) But every now and then there come these moments, when every single member on stage hits their groove, they are all perfectly in sync, and a performance goes beyond music and enters the realm of magic. This was one of those rare moments.

Hey guys! Elie here. Thanks for clarifying about the OD thing. This is the story I've been told when I heard it a long time ago and I've never doubled checked the information 🙏
