Re: Upcoming Gilmour gig in London

Hey,

So did y'all see the latest news? Davig Gilmour will be performing a one-night only concert at the Royal Festival Hall in London, in June 22th. That was music for my ears, and I immediately went to buy my ticket before they were gone. I got a nice seat at the third box on the right side (if you are facing the show, that is), in the first row! And just after I finished ordering I noticed there weren't any tickets left on that section! They definately went REAAAAAAAALLY fast!

Anyway, now I'm researching plane tickets and a youth hostel where can I stay. After all, London is very expensive and I want to save my money for visits to floydian places, such as Grantchester Meadows and the Regent Street Polytechnic where Nick, Rog and Rick met. I'll try and stay 7-10 days if I can.

So is anybody else going to this concert? What are you expecting? I believe Dave will play about 30% of his own songs (from his two solo albums, which I love) and 70% of Floyd. Maybe some covers, who knows?

Also, do you have any suggestions of places to see in London and nearby, specially floydian places? I'd certainly enjoy any suggestions!

Floydian Cheers,
Paulo
