Returning from a 12-year long hiatus from the road, Roger Waters' In The Flesh concert tours were 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 In the Flesh tour was a massive, worldwide undertaking by Waters that spanned three individual tours over the course of three years (1999, 2000, and 2002). 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 June 27, 2000 performance at the Rose Garden Arena in Portland, Oregon was later released as the CD and DVD "In the Flesh Live".

The 1999 North Eastern American/Canada tour

The summers of 1999, 2000, and 2002 found Roger Waters playing his best works at the In The Flesh tour. The show consisted of his most famous tracks from the beginning of his Pink Floyd career. The demand for concert tickets were so great that the tour spanned over three years of touring. Along with the popular acclaim, the show received critical praise from various artists and magazines.

2002 tour information

The success of Waters' two American tours encouraged him to make his 2002 tour a world tour. The set list for 2002 was similar to the previous tour with the addition of another new song, "Flickering Flame", which was substituted periodically for "Each Small Candle" as the encore. The band also changed with the departure of Doyle Bramhall II, his wife and back up singer Sussanah Melvoin and Jon Carin. Brought in was Chester Kamen (brother of Michael Kamen, replacing Bramhall), Linda Lewis as back up singer (who later was replaced by Carol Kenyon due to personal issues), and most interestingly Harry Waters (son of frontman Roger Waters) to replace Carin. By far the most historical moment of this or any of Waters In the Flesh tours came at London's Wembley Arena as former Pink Floyd bandmate and drummer Nick Mason sat in and played both nights on "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun".
