With David Gilmour's On An Island
tour taking a break before the final five shows in the UK, Guy Pratt,
who very ably takes care of bass duties in the band (and on the album),
is keeping himself busy.
He's been in contact with us,
first off to thank all the Brain Damage readership who submitted their
comments about the shows. Your reviews obviously gave the band
something to read in quiet moments, and maybe even gave them food for
thought!
Guy has also told us that he is
doing additional dates of his one-man show, "My Bass And Other
Animals", which will include material from the current Gilmour tour.
The show looks at his long career in music, playing with such
luminaries as Michael Jackson, Madonna, and Pink Floyd from 1987
onwards, and has had some excellent reviews.
Here's where you can catch him in the coming months:
Tickets are available from the venues and normal agents.
Guy brings to vivid life some of
the absurdities of life on the road, and the absurd characters, too. An
excellent way to spend an evening! I saw his show in London, and really
enjoyed the wide spectrum of characters covered in the show. The Floyd
content was excellent, but then so were his anecdotes about the many
other top artists he has worked with, too. We're really pleased that
Guy has announced more shows... We'll be there, and urge you to be
there, too...
