Last night, in the city of Brighton and Hove, the Neptune Inn pub (in Hove) hosted a small gig for Romany Gilmour, David’s daughter, who contributes to his new album Luck and Strange. With rehearsals for the day finished, David presumably felt he had unfinished business and turned up unannounced to run through Wish You Were Here with his daughter! As Jerry Ewing of Louder Sound/Prog (https://www.loudersound.com/news/wish-you-were-here-david-gilmour-stuns-tiny-brighton-pub-with-live-rendition-of-pink-floyd-classic) reports, Romany had been performing at the pub’s regular Monday evening open mic night, running through Leonard Cohen’s If It Be Your Will, Joanna Newsom’s This Side Of Blue, and her own Lily Of The Roses, when her father arrived with a guitar! A glimpse of the event can be seen here: Very much enjoyed crashing @GilmourRomany (https://twitter.com/GilmourRomany?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)âs gig at the Neptune in Hove this evening after finishing tour rehearsals⦠pic.twitter.com/9FxlX2YMIu (https://t.co/9FxlX2YMIu)— David Gilmour (@davidgilmour) September 9, 2024 (https://twitter.com/davidgilmour/status/1833249956427104539?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)

Nick Mason talks about the Saucerful Of Secrets set list
Our friend José Abellán of the Spanish Animals Pink Floyd Magazine (http://www.animalspinkfloydmagazine.com) has just completed a special edition of the publication, which focuses on Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets (more details below), and as part of it, he had the opportunity to ask Nick some questions about the current tour. Thanks to José, we can share the English version of the interview, here… ‘Echoes’ is the name given to this tour. After Richard Wright’s death in 2008, David Gilmour said that he would not play this song again because it was a dialogue between him and Wright. Nick, how do you feel about this song? I totally disagree with David on this. David couldn’t imagine… well, In 2008 no one had any idea that this was going to happen, and I think that this is a really important celebration of some of Rick’s playing and it would be a tragedy to not play it. I believe respect is to play it. We don’t particularly agree on that. We decide what we think is good for us, I guess. You have already said that you don’t see the point in playing the same songs that the fans already listen to at David Gilmour and Roger Waters concerts. What will the show be like and what songs will be played at the concerts in Spain? The biggest difference is that we are working on the early Pink Floyd catalogue and it’s very different to what Roger does with The Wall and David as well. Someone said we are an old style garage band and have to be a lot more in the spirit of Pink Floyd in 1967, 1968, 1969; the music should be a bit freer, and we should be able to improvise a little bit. The music is generally taken from what we made before 1972 so that includes Piper, ah, Saucerful Of Secrets and Meddle as well as some of the least well known singles. I think for people who remember these, there is an element of nostalgia but I hope that for people who really don’t know very much of old Pink Floyd will enjoy it but also see how the ideas developed over the years.

Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets Roundhouse Blu-ray – NO region coding confirmed!
The announcement of Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets: Live At The Roundhouse, coming via Sony Records on April 17th, 2020 as a 2CD/DVD package, on double vinyl and on Blu-ray, has gone down very well with those who have already seen the band perform, and with those who haven't yet had the opportunity! These releases include the show in its entirety, and the video formats include some additional footage including interviews and rehearsals.The pair of Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets shows at London's Roundhouse on May 3rd and 4th were recorded with a grand total of 18(!) cameras were pressed into action on the second night. These included remotely operated cameras, and one suspended on wires which flew back and forth above the audience. The result of this expensive and challenging filming and recording exercise (cameras were positioned to minimise any impact on the audience) looks spectacular on the footage we've seen so far.This week, Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B083XWMFWG/braindamage-20) have alarmed some by noting that the Blu-ray edition won't be compatible in North America and other countries. We went direct to Sony to check this out, and we have had confirmation from them that this was an Amazon error (which Sony had Amazon correct immediately), and that the Blu-ray has NO region coding at all, so will be playable worldwide, irrespective of where you purchase it from. This is great news!For a full, early viewing of Live At The Roundhouse, there's exclusive screenings coming to cinemas in selected cities worldwide for one night only on March 10th, 2020 – details of participating cinemas can be found at NickMasonFilm.com (http://www.nickmasonfilm.com/) where tickets can also be purchased. This theatrical event will also include a pre-recorded cinema exclusive Q A with Nick Mason and the band where they will answer questions submitted by fans.
