Last fall, before Roger Waters kicked off the North American leg of his “Wall” tour in Toronto, we held a contest encouraging you to guess which date of the tour David Gilmour would join Roger on stage to perform “Comfortably Numb.”
We received about 90 entries, with most people favoring May 11:
Well, as it turns out, that prediction was close, but off by one day: The reunion happened at last night’s show at London’s 02, with the added bonus of Nick Mason joining Waters and Gilmour on stage for the show’s coda, “Outside the Wall.”
Two people guessed May 12, so we flipped a coin to determine our winner: Daniel Kippes of Cercado, Cochabamba in Bolivia.
Daniel gets a copy of Waters’ 1990 CD “The Wall Live in Berlin.” And, for guessing the exact date, we’re also throwing in a sealed copy of Classic Rock’s excellent 3D Pink Floyd issue from Fall 2009, celebrating the 30th anniversary of “The Wall.”
Honorable mention to the other person who managed to see the future: Ron Leicht of Calwell, Australian Capital Territory in Australia.
Nicely done, both of you!
