TEARING DOWN THE WALL
David Gilmour and Roger Waters 7/10/10 |
At a charity event Saturday in Oxfordshire, England, Pink
Floyd legends Roger
Waters and David
Gilmour took to the stage before
200 guests to benefit the Hoping Foundation and
raise funds for the Children of Gaza.
The duo performed four songs while backed by
Guy Pratt (bass and acoustic guitar), Harry Waters (keyboards), Andy Newmark
(drums),
Chester Kamen (guitar), and Jonjo Grisdale (keyboards).
Reuniting for the first time since Live 8 in 2005, the performance began with a rendition of "To Know Him Is To Love
Him"
(written by Phil Spector), followed by "Wish You Were
Here", "Comfortably Numb", and closing out with "Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)".
The auctions for the evening raised £350,000 for the charity. You can make a donation here.
Roger Waters' The Wall tour (which does not include Gilmour), begins September 15 in Toronto. Click here for dates.
