Nick Mason steps in to save music shop
Posted December 20, 2012 by Floydian Slip
Nick Mason has stepped in to save Foote’s, the Bloomsbury, London, music shop where the Pink Floyd drummer purchased his first drum kit.
Mason bought his first kit from Foote’s for £7.50 in 1958, and the shop has apparently held a soft spot in his heart ever since.
The story and video posted by The Telegraph doesn’t reveal Mason’s specific financial stake in the business.
Mason is seen in the video quipping, “I don’t think I’m going to be behind the counter on a regular basis.”
