I love in Pink Floyd's live performances how they flesh out the songs or change them a little, and make the songs just that much more than the recordings. I always find with Gilmour, he has this way of making the guitar and the music the showpiece, and he sort of fades into the background - which makes him that much more of a great musician. The flash has it's place, but I love his creative restraint. Right up there as one of my all time favourite guitarists (I’m too indecisive to choose just one).
