Last night, London's Hyde Park
(scene of Live8 a year before), saw another great performance from
Roger Waters and his band, aided and abetted by Nick Mason, who added
his drumming expertise to the performance of Pink Floyd's 1973 classic,
Dark Side Of The Moon.

You can find out more about this show on our London show page.
At the show, we found out that
Nick is now due to perform at some more shows on Roger's current tour.
Whilst this is not necessarily an exhaustive list, as other shows could
be added, Nick is now due to perform at the following forthcoming shows:
12 July - Lucca, Italy
14 July - Magny-Cours, Nevers, France
12/13 September - MSG, New York, USA
5/6/8 October - Hollywood Bowl, LA, USA
As part of his tour, Roger is also publicising a new charity initiative. Millennium Promise
is an organization co-founded by Dr Jeffrey Sachs dedicated to fighting
malaria, and ending extreme povery in the world by the year 2025. Every
10 seconds, a child dies from malaria. 300,000,000 to 500,000,000
people contract malaria each year. The charity aims to get donations of
$10 which buys a bed net - which in itself can save two lives.
More details of the charity, and how to donate, can be found at www.millenniumpromise.org, and details of Roger's own commitment will soon be on his own site - roger-waters.com.
