David Gilmour Joins Roger Waters on The Wall

NEW YORK, May 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — David Gilmour, making good a pledge he made last year to Roger Waters at the Hoping Foundation Charity concert, joined Waters on-stage on Thursday, May 12 for a much-anticipated and historic performance of “Comfortably Numb” during Waters’ sold-out The Wall Live Concert at London’s O2 Arena. (In 2010, Gilmour had promised to perform “Comfortably Numb” at one of the concerts on Waters’ then-upcoming The Wall Live tour if Waters agreed to join him playing “To Know Him Is To Love Him” at the Hoping Foundation gig).

Roger Waters – The Wall Live, which won Major Tour of 2010 at the prestigious Pollstar Awards earlier this year, is currently on a 64 date sold-out tour of Europe: six dates at the O2 Arena London followed by three at the MSN in Manchester and one at the NIA in Birmingham make up the English leg.

Photos from the May 12 performance of Roger Waters – The Wall Live concert are available from The Press Association and Reuters.
