Further to our news yesterday, confirming David Gilmour's US and Canadian tour dates, we have full ticketing details for you, shown in detail below, including how you can buy advance tickets and special inclusive packages. We also have news of an additional show at London's Royal Albert Hall, which joined the schedules today, and news of potential stage equipment!

David Gilmour - Live 2006

David will be touring in Spring 2006, with his 'On An Island Tour', the title coming from Gilmour’s new solo album which is released on 6 March 2006 in the UK and Europe, and 7 March in the US/Canada.

Looking first at the additional London show, you can now also catch David at the Royal Albert Hall on 31st May.

Finally, we have news of equipment that David may be using on stage, during the shows, if reports coming through are correct. We've had emails from some of our Finnish friends, passing on a story in the country's press that "Pink Floyd has ordered seven fogscreens from a Finnish company." Brian Forth, the sales representative for America of FogScreen Inc., said that they were "planning to use them to enhance their concerts".

The technology behind the screens is quite interesting, and gives a nice effect. More details can be found at various sites, not least fogscreen.com. We would point out that, if there is any truth in this story, the company can only be referring to David's concerts, as there are NO plans currently for any Pink Floyd shows!

Our thanks to Pekka Torvinen and Sami Lehtinen for their help in this story.
