David Gilmour is the cover feature of the December 2005 issue of the UK's Guitar & Bass Magazine, out today. The magazine runs an extensive article, to celebrate David's 60th birthday, by looking at "sixty reasons why you should love Pink Floyd's legendary guitarmeister".
In a well thought out piece, with few factual errors, the magazine looks at all aspects of his life - from his early stab at modelling, through to recent events such as the Strat Pack show and the Live 8 reunion. The piece, under the headline "Diamond David", has a nice selection of pictures, including a great full page shot of him at the July concert.
We know that a number of you are keen on any articles in magazines and newspapers, so will be keen to get hold of a copy of this. In UK magazine stores from today, you can also get it directly from the
publishers. Back issues can be bought through mags-uk.com, or by calling 01733-385170 (+44-1733-385170 from outside the UK).

To promote the album, a single - "Lie For A Lie" - was released, that featured David Gilmour's guest performance on it.

Nick Mason and Roger Waters were recently interviewed for Italian magazine, Famiglia Cristiana (Christian Family), in which they are asked about a future reunion, and specifically refer to a peace effort for the Middle East.
Their reported comments are brief, and nothing should be read into them - there are no plans for any shows. However, it is good to hear that they are not discounting the possibility of future collaborations, should a good cause and opportunity present itself.

Our friends over at Genesis Publications have been in contact today with the news that their very special edition of Nick Mason's "Inside Out: A Personal History Of Pink Floyd", has now completely sold out!
As we reported, most recently on 12th July, Genesis, the specialist book publishers, have collaborated with Nick Mason, producing a very special limited edition of his book. They have taken 500 of the First Edition of the book, re-bound them in leather, got them signed by Nick and included in a 'box of delights' designed and assembled by Storm Thorgerson, who will also sign this unique limited edition box set. Only 500 sets have been made, and they are currently being assembled and despatched.
