Did Rick play at every Floyd show - if so he was the only one as Nick missed one of the Wall shows due to ill health

I've heard that as well. How many Wall shows did Nick miss?

We know they did shows without Gilmour and without Waters...and obviously without Syd.

If Nick missed a show and Rick didn't...then I'd say it stands to reason that Rick was the only member to play every show.

Interesting.

But Nick's still the only one who's been on every album. :D

I don't suppose Rick was ever off sick for a show?

For some unknown reason, Rick missed the 2001 extravaganza in Mosespa's backyard, so the answer is no.

What was that :) ?

Besides, technically, it was not a Floyd show, was it?

Truth be told, and we tried keeping this from you for a few years now, only Nick showed up that night. It took crustless pie to get him on board with the idea. We did not want to disappoint you, so I dressed up like Roger and played bass, HeckTo dressed up like David and played lead guitar, and Worm Your Honor dressed up like Rick and played his parts.

Interesting. Which one exactly? Can you provide the source of your information?
