Oh yeah I almost forgot....His name is Gary Wallis.
He joined Pink Floyd on The Momentary Lapse Of Reason Tour. He also plays on the Division Bell and the tour that resulted in the live-album Pulse. He's from England..

He plays more drums than Mason on these tours.

All this percussion is very irritating on pre-MLOR songs. Another brick is very annoying this way.

Gary Wallis may well "rock", but I have to say I just find him annoying. :oops: I'm all for getting into it, but he gets too carried away!!

Good drummer though...

I watched him on PULSE video and he went really wild on Money. And what I like about musicians is when they play with the brain of professional and the heart of an amateur! I saw that only on Rick's face and never on Dave's (wich is of course another story...). Couple more to mention: (the one and only) Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, Paul McCartney...
