Comfortably Numb

Band:
David Gilmour (guitar, vocals)
Gregg Dechart (keyboards)
Mickey Feat (bass, vocals)
Mick Ralphs (guitar, vocals)
Raff Ravenscroft (saxophones)
Chris Slade (drums, percussion)

Other info:
After the shows in California, the band took a week off during which the percussionist, Jodi Linscott, injured herself in a motorcycle accident. Some extra dates had been added to the tour (Florida and the east coast), so they had to do them without her. It was durning this period that Chris Slade showed his excellence on the drums. The power of his drumming was incredible. To me, he was the nicest surprise of the tour. At the end of the tour, when they went back to New York for a few shows there, they added Sid Evans on percussion.
