Guy Pratt's Wake Up CallAs we revealed two weeks ago, Guy Pratt, bassist for David Gilmour, and for the post-1987 Pink Floyd (amongst many others), is making his much anticipated return to the stage for a run at the legendary Edinburgh Festival.

'Guy Pratt's Wake-up Call' is the next instalment of the bizarre, poignant and often hilarious life of a professional bassist told by a natural raconteur. The show is being held at Fringe@Le Monde between August 22nd - 30th; click the thumbnail to the left for more details. Tickets are just £5, and we wholeheartedly recommend it!

However, two lucky Brain Damage visitors will each receive a pair of tickets in the latest BD competition. [UPDATE: the lucky winners have now been chosen] Read on for more details!

The prize on offer is a pair of tickets for the show, for any of the performances between August 22nd - August 30th, and we'll be picking two correct entries from all those received.

Just answer the following question correctly:

  • Which Pink Floyd albums feature Guy's bass playing?

Please email your answer to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it , with the subject line of "Guy Pratt's Wake Up Call". Include your name, address, the date you'd like tickets for, and your formal confirmation that you will be able to attend the show - this is especially important for those who don't live in Scotland! Also, please note that the prize is a pair of tickets for the show; you will be responsible for travel to and from the show, along with any other costs.

Entries need to be received by 11:59pm GMT on August 8th, 2010, with the two lucky winners announced the following day. Good luck everyone!

COMPETITION NOW CLOSED! Many congratulations to the two winners of a pair of tickets for Guy's Edinburgh stand-up show... Mark Lawrie, of Kirkcaldy, Scotland, and Dr Kent Hurtig, of Uppsala, Sweden (who'll be in Scotland during the run of Guy's show). Well done to these two, and commiserations to those who weren't so fortunate...
