A month ago, almost to the day, saw the recording of David Gilmour's very special, exclusive concert for the BBC, at London's Mermaid Theatre.

In front of an audience of competition winners, and a handful of David's family and friends, a full house had the pleasure of seeing a wonderful performance - which was aired on BBC Radio, BBCi (Interactive TV), and their website.

David played a well-balanced set, combining tracks from his new album "On An Island", with a selection of Pink Floyd classics.

Our Canadian friends now have the opportunity of hearing a full rebroadcast of the concert.

On Thursday night (April 6th), Classic Rock Q107 based in Toronto will be airing the show.

This is a precursor to David's two shows at the city's Massey Hall on Sunday and Monday, and the concerts will be further marked by Q107 holding a special "Pink Floyd Weekend", which promises plenty of David's solo work alongside group work, and a rebroadcast of the "best of the Legends of Classic Rock" at 9am on Saturday morning.

Our thanks to Andrew over at Q107 for the head's up...
