I am traveling from Texas for the anniversary show and then found out that Roger Waters is playing the night before. I know have a ticket to that show as well. Why not since I will be in London anyway? Anyone else seeing both shows?
Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets have announced that they’ll play a handful of shows in London next month.
The project features former Pink Floyd drummer Mason along with Gary Kemp, former Pink Floyd bassist Guy Pratt, The Blockheads drummer Lee Harris and Dom Beken.
They’ll play material from early Pink Floyd albums The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn and A Saucerful Of Secrets – and the shows will mark the first time Mason has played live since the Live 8 concert in London in 2005.
They’ll play a press night at Dingwalls in Camden on May 20, which will be followed by three shows at the Half Moon, Putney, on May 21, 23 and 24. Tickets are limited and will go on sale this morning at 10am GMT from the project’s website.
All ticket holders will require photo ID with their ticket for entry to the shows.

Saw him on the US tour last summer. Was tempted to get tickets for the Hyde Park show as well, but decided to pass.
I did see that the whole first weekend (Waters, Cure, Clapton) are now sold out.

I'd have fancied that but am so out of brownie points I don't think I'll be able to book another gig ever..

Good bits, during the final section from Run Like Hell onwards, they actually got into the theatrics and started dressing up and it was really good - the whole show should have been like that! The Meddle stuff was a nice treat too. Could have done with being 30mins shorter and a little less gloomy.
