David Gilmour performed a warm-up show for his upcoming world tour in support of “Rattle That Lock” in Brighton, UK on Saturday.
His first full live date in almost a decade saw the guitarist perform a two-set evening at the 4,500 capacity Brighton Centre.
The 21-song show presented live debuts of material from “Rattle That Lock” (due September 18) alongside a mix of solo and Pink Floyd tunes.
Gilmour’s live band is led by album co-producer and guitarist Phil Manzanera.
The project was recorded at various places including Gilmour’s Astoria houseboat studio and in Hove, Sussex, UK.
“Rattle That Lock” will be available in a CD edition with clothbound, foil-blocked cover, including a 22-page booklet, and also on heavyweight vinyl, digital download and a deluxe box edition, which includes 4 Barn Jam films, 4 non-album audio tracks, 4 documentaries, and 2 promo clips.
A Deluxe Edition on CD+DVD or CD+Blu-ray versions will include 2 hardback books, a double-sided poster, a postcard in a dedicated envelope and a Gilmour guitar pick.
Gilmour will launch “Rattle That Lock” with a sold-out 11-date European tour, with shows starting on September 12 in Croatia.
