With Roger Waters' 2006 summer tour of Europe starting in exactly two weeks time, we learnt this evening that his friend and former Pink Floyd colleague Nick Mason has been added to a third full show!

Nick has been added to the Reykjavik, Iceland concert on June 12th, to go with his appearances at the concerts being held in Hyde Park, London (July 1st) and Magny-Cours, Nevers, France (July 14th). He is scheduled to play drums on all of the 1973 classic, Dark Side Of The Moon, and the encores.

The promoter of the Icelandic concert tells us that tickets sales are doing well, with area "A" at the venue almost sold out. The news of Nick's inclusion will no doubt ensure that remaining tickets sell quickly. They can be obtained through www.midi.is.

Nick's first outing with Roger this time around actually occurs tomorrow evening, when they take part in the benefit concert at Highclere Castle in Newbury, Berkside in the UK countryside. However, Roger and Nick appear as part of a star-studded bill (which includes the likes of Eric Clapton, Bryan Ferry, and others) and it will not be a full length performance. We will be bringing you full details of the show, of course...

Our thanks to Finn (the promoter) for his help in bringing this information to you.
