    Great News Guy!
    But the ques­tion is… do I really want to come and see you again? 😉
    You were at The Ritzy on Saturday?

  2. Guy Pratt - September 17, 2007 12:01 PM

  3. Richard - September 17, 2007 9:36 PM

    Hi guy

    Just read the book. Very funny! I am sure Bryan does­n’t allow that kind of behav­iour!

    I saw some cool Icehouse videos on with a very young Guy Pratt on YouTube last night.

  4. Becky in Atlanta - September 18, 2007 1:19 AM

    How mar­velous to meet you at the Ritzy, Guy! And thanks for the kiss! (On the cheek, that is.…) 😉

    I see that Mojo gave your book four stars. Well done!

  5. Geoff Duffy - September 19, 2007 12:48 AM

    Thank you so much for sign­ing my 8 month old son’s t shirt at leceis­ter square sir and that brown jacket you wore at the Ritzy was very nice indeed but not very mod ha ha .

  6. Paul Sexton - September 19, 2007 8:47 PM

    Ooops
    Nice play­ing on the dvd, Guy

  7. Heather and Phil - September 20, 2007 2:48 PM

    Dear Guy, A fan­tas­tic DVD par­tic­u­larly amused by your scam­per­ing around dur­ing Richards Comfortably Numb plus the total look of admi­ra­tion on your face for him dur­ing Echoes… the years just rolled away and once again he was play­ing in Pompeii… he really does get bet­ter all the time.l

  8. Rudders - Toronto - September 20, 2007 3:19 PM

    Guy

    - Congratulations! The book was an excel­lent read. I thor­oughly enjoyed it.

    - RTN is a truly amaz­ing DVD in both qual­ity and con­tent and some­thing to be proud of…

    - A lot of us over here in North America are hop­ing to see your show one day…

    Cheers… 🙂

  9. Howard Bayliss - September 20, 2007 3:50 PM

    Hey Guy,

    I am from David’s blog as well post­ing for the first time. Look at all the fel­low blog­gers here…excellent.
    I sec­ond Rudder’s request for you to come over to Canada and play Toronto. There are a lot of good British pubs in the area and I will be the first to buy you a pint either before or after the show.

    Cheers, Howard

    Hi.

  11. Steve - France - September 21, 2007 4:32 PM

    Hi Guy
    Do you know if musics which you made for the “Hackers” movie in 1995 are avail­able in trade?
    Thank you for your answer
    Cheers 🙂

  12. Davor Vasic - September 23, 2007 8:37 PM

    Hi Guy,
    I am going to see Mr.Ferry’s show in Belgrade(Serbia) on October,7th .I was wondering,if you would like to auto­graph my copy of Pulse DVD and Division Bell cd for me?
    Thanx,
    Davor

  13. Guy Pratt - September 24, 2007 1:05 PM

    Sadly my Hackers music never made it onto the album..
    I’m always happy to sign auto­graphs if you find me..

  14. Spider - September 24, 2007 7:30 PM

    Hi all!

    I don’t know why but I had a prob­lem with my first com­ment… So, I try again… It was just to say that the DVD “David Gilmour at the Royal Albert Hall” is just fan­tas­tic! It was great to see David Bowie singing Comfortably Numb and, of course, to see you play­ing bass Mr Pratt!

    Hope to see you in con­cert one day…

  15. Ed Lopez - September 24, 2007 11:58 PM

    Hey Guy,

    Congratulations on being part of such a suc­cess­ful DVD. Reading David Gilmour’s blog and news today (September 24th) it’s impres­sive to see his DVD ris­ing up the charts quickly but not sur­pris­ing. What a bless­ing to be a part of all this Pink Floyd and David Gilmour his­tory!

    This DVD is bound to be rec­og­nized as a clas­sic and all of you who par­tic­i­pated in it will have quite an iconic place in music his­tory. Marie and I really hope your book is pub­lished in the US soon and that you are able to tour here. We hope that, at least while we are here in Utah, you don’t over­look Salt Lake City on your next tour. We also hope to see you in London in November if you book some tour dates — we’ll be in the area and Marie would love to see your show as she has­n’t been able to yet.

    Ed

    PS — Thanks for tak­ing the time to chat for a bit out­side the Groucho Club after the Odeon pre­mière. You went out of your way dur­ing a very busy time. This is why your fans appre­ci­ate you a great deal.

  16. wynner - September 25, 2007 11:31 AM

    Any chance of you com­ing over to Dublin ??? i just seen the youtube peice on david bowie singing “Comfortably Numb” total class !!

  17. STEFANO FROM ITALY - September 25, 2007 10:25 PM

    Hy Guy,

    Last night I was see­ing for the first time DG’s new DVD.
    After the “too-too” “too-too” beat’s that intro­ducted “Breath in the air” I did­n’t resist and caught my stingray to play with you…
    Why you did­n’t use your fan­tas­tic nat­ural (or black) stingray on this tour? During take a breath for istance…
    I want to say thank’s for the fan­tas­tic descrip­tion of your ton’s of effects at the end of the book (the book was wery wery hilarous and I was wery sur­prised when I dis­cov­ered that you stayed near Milan (my home) in 1990 to had a recorded ses­sion with Robert Palmer!)

    Good night Guy!
    Stefano.

    Goodnight.

  18. Dave - September 25, 2007 11:24 PM

    guy

    my name is dave and i am a high school teacher in the chicago area. am also an ama­teur song­writer, gui­tarist and bassist. have been a long time fan of yours since first hear­ing you with pink floyd and bryan ferry while in col­lege in the 80s. we met once, dur­ing the divi­sion bell tour back in ’94. still one of the best nights of my life! any news on bring­ing your new biog­ra­phy tour to the U.S.?

    any­way, i just picked up the new David Gilmour DVD and saw you play­ing (i was unsuc­cess­ful in get­ting tick­ets when the tour came here) and found your web­site and thought i would drop you a line.

    quick ques­tion for you. back in ’94, you gave me a very used gui­tar pick with your sig­na­ture on it. i have it in a small frame with a Division Bell adver­tis­ment. when i opened up the new Gilmour DVD, there were pic­tures of sev­eral of david’s plec­tra so i thought i would write you to see if you had any new plec­tra???

    i would be hon­ored to have another one of your picks.

    thanks for your time and the great music mem­o­ries. hope to hear from you soon! be well.

    dave

  19. Comfortably Dumb - September 26, 2007 11:21 PM

    Hi Guy, are you play­ing with Bryan Ferry in Belgrade?
    We want to make a wel­come ban­ner 😉
    And it would be plain stu­pid to carry it if you’re not there.…

  20. Guy Pratt - October 2, 2007 2:20 PM

    I am play­ing in Belgrade!!! Make ban­ners!! Hundreds!!!I want to see a sea of them when I look out from the stage!!!! Sorry, got a bit car­ried away..

    I am still using the picks from the 94 tour. It’s only PF who get them made for me!

  21. Chris Collis - November 1, 2007 5:49 AM

    Hi Guy,
    I’ve been a fan since Delicate Sound Of Thunder and I am now read­ing your book which, I must say, has had me laugh­ing out loud a few times. If you ever bring your stand-up rou­tine to (west­ern) Canada, I would love to see it.

    Cheers

    Chris
