Gilmour will be concluding his current tour by playing a special show

 All
of us here at Brain Damage would like to extend our best wishes to
Richard Wright, who today, 28th July, celebrates his 63rd birthday.
Richard
was born in Hatch End, London, in 1943, and whilst at the Regent Street
Poly, met Roger Waters and Nick Mason, which lead to the formation of
Sigma 6 in 1963, the band that developed into Pink Floyd...
Over the
years, Richard has made a unique, unforgettable contribution to the
band's music and overall "sound", and is currently performing on David
Gilmour's On An Island tour.
Many happy returns, Richard!
