With the long awaited release of
Pink Floyd's Pulse on DVD less than a month away (hitting the stores on
July 10th/11th), US public broadcasting is airing an exclusive premiere
of selections from the recording this Sunday, June 18th, at 8pm. As
part of the premiere, there is a pledge drive where an exclusive David
Gilmour CD is up for grabs!

| Pink Floyd's PULSE DVD |
WLIW21 New York Public Television
is the station airing it, and will be presenting it nationally (in the
US) to public television across the nation in August.
During the broadcast, viewers can
support WLIW21's decision to air this kind of music programming by
calling 1.800.767.2121 or visiting www.wliw.org
(click "support21", then click "become a member") and making a
donation. PBS (Public Broadcasting) in the US is not state-funded, and
relies completely on public donations to keep their valuable service
running.
The Pulse airing will be in
pledge drive format, bringing viewers nine songs from the forthcoming
DVD, intersperced with breaks for pledges. With certain levels of
donation, pledgers receive: for a $70 donation, the "David Gilmour "On
An Island" CD; for a $100 donation the 'Pulse' DVD; and for a $150
donation, a package with both the CD and DVD. And in addition, each of
the above will also come with the exclusive CD containing three
live songs from David's AOL sessions: 'On An Island', 'Take A Breath'
and 'This Heaven', in a card sleeve designed by 'OAI' designer Steve
Knee.
If you do not live in the New York metro-area, you can contact your local public television station at www.pbs.org/stationfinder
to find airdates in your area for PINK FLOYD LIVE: PULSE. If your
station does not have this concert scheduled please call or write them
to let them know you want to see PINK FLOYD on TV in your town! Once a
station sees public demand for a show it might convince them to add it
to their schedule.
PLEASE NOTE: a donation to
today’s WLIW pledge does not mean that you will get your copy of
‘Pulse’ earlier than the US release date of 11 July. We have no idea
when the DVD will be mailed out, so please do not be disappointed if
you make a pledge, and receive your Pulse DVD later than the 11 July
instore date. This information/clarification has come directly from
David's management team, in response to email enquiries.
Our thanks to Natasha Padilla at WLIW, and to Andy at David's management, for the info.
