David Gilmour vergaß beim Konzert in Rom (28.9.) Rob Gentry vorzustellen. Die Sängerinnen machten ihn aufmerksam. Gilmours spontane Reaktion: Fuck. See, old age gets senile. Sorry, Rob. Danach wurde aus diesem vergessen eine Art „running Gag“. Gilmour ließ sich immer etwas mehr Zeit, wenn Gentry an der Reihe war vorgestellt zu werden, als ob er ihn wieder vergessen würde.

In einem neuen Interview das The Keyboard Chronicles mit Gentry führte, erzählt er über seine gemeinsame Zeit mit David Gilmour. Wie ihm die Anpassung an das normale Leben nach der Gilmour-Tour gelang, die Höhepunkte der Tour, wie es war auf der Orgel der Royal Albert Hall, dank Greg Phillinganes zu spielen und sein Mitwirken bei der Aufnahme des Luck and Strange Albums.
