Aventura real estate owners are looking forward to experiencing the mastermind behind the legendary Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, at his Us + Them tour taking place on Thursday, July 13th at Miami’s American Airlines Arena. Thousands of lucky concertgoers can still remember every little detail of Waters’ magnificent concert, The Wall, from 2012. The man’s fantastic presentation of the legendary rock opera was staged by the then 68-year-old bassist, lyricist, and principle mastermind behind Pink Floyd’s historic concept album. The live presentation of the fourth bestselling album of all time was full of elaborate sound, special effects, and brilliant choreography.

Classic rock lovers with homes for sale in Aventura will never forget when the gray-haired Waters appeared in sunglasses and a long black trench coat to sing “In the Flesh.” While helicopter search lights danced over the fortunate spectators on the floor during “The Thin Ice,” photos were displayed of fallen soldiers and civilians from WWII, Iraq, and 9-11.

Following “The Happiest Days of Our Lives,” more than a dozen students showed up onstage to sing the No. 1 single, “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2.” Following “Mother,” thousands recognized the familiar introduction to “Goodbye Blue Sky.” Animated airplanes were displayed on both the screen and the wall. In slow motion, the bottom of the planes opened up and dropped numerous red crosses and peace symbols in the place of bombs before “Empty Spaces.”

Throughout “Young Lust,” viewers saw photos of soldiers who were killed in battle. As the last brick was put into place to cover up the singer at the end of the set, Waters sang “Goodbye Cruel World’s” closing lyric, “Goodbye.”

When the second set kicked off with “Hey You,” the colossal wall blocked the band from being seen. For the duration of “Nobody Home,” a piece of the massive barricade folded down on the left side of the stage to show Waters sitting in a motel room. I can still picture touching videos of kids being reunited with their fathers coming home from war played during “Vera.” Listening to “Bring the Boys Back Home,” thousands were touched by videos of Iraq-deployed fathers coming home.

Waters stood at the bottom of the wall to sing the melodic “Comfortably Numb,” as the lead guitarist played from the top. The boys dug into “In the Flesh,” and a gigantic balloon of a black boar that read “Trust Us” floated around the arena. By the time the crowd heard “The Show Must Go On,” animated fighter jets were flying across the screen and dropped crosses in the place of bombs.

The unparalleled highlight of the evening was “Run Like Hell.” While singing “Waiting for the Worms,” cartoon hammers marched onscreen in the background. At the end of the last number, “Outside the Wall,” the massive barricade crumbled onto the giant stage. For a majority of Aventura luxury homes that attended The Wall, it was the most extraordinary concert event of their lifetimes. Maybe if we are lucky, guitar god David Gilmour will make a surprise appearance onstage in South Florida.
