David Gilmour Has More Dates For You

The good news is that David Gilmour has added more dates to his brief run across North America.  The bad news?  The Pink Floyd guitarist is still limiting the tour to only four cities.

It probably comes as no surprise that ticket demand has resulted in the extra shows.  After all, the last time Gilmour toured on this side of the pond was in 2006 on a similarly brief journey that touched down in New York, Toronto, Chicago and Oakland along with L.A.-area gigs shows in  Hollywood and Universal City.
