Pink Floyd guitarist and vocalist David Gilmour has a three part podcast available to coincide with the Christies auction later this month. You can listen to the first one today, with the other two being made available soon – more details below.
David Gilmour
The auction is to raise money for charity by selling most of his pretty epic guitar collection which is basically the history of music right there in guitars.
Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason is set to commence his 45 date tour tonight which starts in Canada (12th March) and ends in The Netherlands in the Summer.

The band will be playing early Pink Floyd material and features Guy Pratt on bass, Gary Kemp from Spandau Ballet, Lee Harris from The Blockheads on guitars and Dom Beken from The Orb on Keys. Quite a collection of people really. Not to be missed.

Nick Mason the Heartbeat!
I like that Nick now refers to himself as the “Heartbeat” of Pink Floyd! To help promote his solo tours, Roger Waters often emphasised he was the creative force behind Pink Floyd. David Gilmour duly responded by emphasising he is indeed the voice and guitar of Pink Floyd!
Who is the best? That is a matter of opinion, feel free to leave a comment below! Alternatively, come and have a chat about it on the NPF Forum/Message Board.
