Marking his first American performances in eight years, Gilmour will play shows at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on October 29th and 30th, and at Madison Square Garden in New York City on November 4th and 5th. According to a press release, these dates will mark Gilmour’s only live performances in North America.


in interviews Gilmour has said that the decision to not play Floyd stuff has two parts.

one is since Wright has passed it wont be the same and he will just be a cover band of himself at that point.

two is he has done all he can do with those songs and it is not interesting to him any more.

Gilmour is famously sensitive but also unsentimental at the same time. Just look at his last gear sale, he sold pretty much every instrument he was known for and used the most.

$21mm made went to charity

Good definition. I truly get the sense that he is not sentimental. He seems to just move forward with things. I like that about him. He knows how great the things they did were but doesnt try to lean on it for everything. Like Roger does


I am a huge Gilmour fan and missing this event is fricking with me. Ive seen him before and want to see him one last time but the logistics of these two venues suck.

Fingers crossed that somehow, he does more.

I somehow got on the presale yesterday and got two tickets at Madison Square Garden for 11/6.

My dream concert, but I’m a little worried about the set list. It’s a lot of money/effort/travel (I’m in Louisiana) if it’s not anything I really know/like. Also didn’t realize it was election day on 11/5 - crap!

His shows in London are like a month before, maybe if the set list is not attractive I could easily sell the tickets? I’m torn about this one.

Was able to get tickets to the MSG show on the 9th. Bucket list show for me and my old man. I too am worried about the set list
