Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here Tour took place in 1975 in support of their then-forthcoming album Wish You Were Here. The tour was divided into two legs in the United States – West Coast and East Coast – and also featured a gig in the UK at the Knebworth Festival.
On the tour, the band debuted the songs ‘Have a Cigar’ and the ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ suite, which was split into two parts with ‘Have a Cigar’ between. The other two songs from Wish You Were Here (the title track and ‘Welcome to the Machine’) would not be played live until their ‘In the Flesh’ concert series of 1977.
The last gig of the tour was as the headliner of the 1975 Knebworth Festival, which also featured the Steve Miller Band, Captain Beefheart and Roy Harper (who joined Floyd on stage to sing ‘Have a Cigar’). The Knebworth show was the last time the band would perform ‘Echoes’ and the entire The Dark Side of the Moon album with Roger Waters.
The band performed two sets for the tour. The first set included songs from Wish You Were Here and early versions of songs from 1977’s Animals (under working titles). The second set consisted of the entire The Dark Side of the Moon album, with ‘Echoes’ performed as an encore.
