| :::Site updates::: |
Sorry for the lack
of updates during the last couple of weeks. It was just not possible
to update because firstly I didn’t have the time and secondly
my computer broke down. So this was a good excuse to finally get myself
a Vaio notebook I have wanted for a long time!
Basically I have added all the latest news that
were of interest so the site is finally up to date. The calendar
will hopefully be updated by the weekend as well as the youtube
clips (I hope). I did not create any image galleries for Mr. Mandela’s
birthday concert. They are all over the web on familiar websites
like gettyimages.com, rexfeatures.co.uk, etc. So go and have a look!

Nick Mason
& Roger Taylor perform at Festival of Speed party
The New Statesman revealed early that the legendary gala dinner, held
on the Saturday night of the three-day Festival of Speed, included
a special performance from Pink Floyd-drummer and speedfreak Nick
Mason and a couple of friends! The dinner, an invitation-only affair
for some 1200 people, is held at the Earl of March's Goodwood estate
in the heart of Sussex on the south coast of England, and each year
has interesting musicians providing the entertainment. Rumours spread
quickly amongst the lucky attendees that Pink Floyd were getting back
together for the occasion, but this was not to be... Those joining
Nick turned out to be Queen's Roger Taylor and The Who's Kenney Jones,
providing a thrilling percussive start to proceedings. The New Stateman
said that the "result was a truly bizarre sight. The 1,200 invited
guests are generally at the "venerable" end of the spectrum
- racing drivers of a certain age such as Sir Stirling Moss, aristocratic
motoring enthusiasts and, of course, their elegant, silver-haired
wives. It was dark, so it was difficult to gauge their reaction when
Mason's dancing girls tore off their leathers to reveal a red bra-and-hot-pants
combo, nor could I tell whether they appreciated the pole dancing.
What with the accompanying fireworks and jets of flame, I did worry
that there were some pacemakers working very hard." Calming things
a little once Nick, Roger and Kenney had finished, was Scottish singer
K T Tunstall, dressed a little more soberly than "Nick's dancing
girls"! (source) |
