COMMENTS
Due to the critical success of the four initial shows in May 2018, held in tiny venues in London's Camden and Putney, Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets announced a full European tour for September last year. The expanded shows for the full tour were even more highly acclaimed, and it came as no surprise when further dates for 2019 were announced!
Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets brings together some familiar names, all great musicians: joining Nick are Gary Kemp and Lee Harris on guitars, Guy Pratt on bass, and Dom Beken on keyboards. Kemp is best known for his work with Spandau Ballet, Harris as having played guitar with The Blockheads (Ian Dury's band), Pratt needs no introduction, and Beken is principally known for his work with The Orb, and Transit Kings (with Pratt). The band will be playing early Pink Floyd songs.
This is a unique opportunity to experience Pink Floyd's celebrated and significant early body of work played live including songs from albums 'The Piper At The Gates of Dawn' and 'A Saucerful Of Secrets'.

WARNING - SPOILERS AHEAD!
Do not read on if you don't want surprises to be spoilt, regarding what the band played!
Another Roman amphitheatre, and another lovely location for a Saucers show. Reports from those who are seeing a few of the shows are that the band are getting better and better. Those who were knocked out at the very first shows (Dingwall's, then the three nights at the Half Moon in Putney, in May last year) would have their minds blown both with the presentation, and the performance, of the show as it stands currently. There's clearly no "end of tour tailing off" or counting down the dates before getting home. The band are having a fantastic time and it comes across so clearly in these shows! A day off, then off to Amsterdam for a rare (on this July tour) indoor show...
