Love Nick Mason, not just for his drumming, but for remaining so humble and level-headed. He's such a pleasant person to speak with. Great interview, very good questions.

Thank you, Nick, for playing the early PF stuff, which contains so many great pieces but had been grievously neglected.

I last saw Nick Mason play live (with Pink Floyd) in 1987 when I was sixteen and he was already a bit of an 'elder statesman of rock'. I'm now nearly 53 and am about to see him again. Extraordinary.

Why Nick Mason’s “cottage industry” band plays just early Pink Floyd 2344pm 14.5.24 the eternal Paul Carrick reference..... that guy is either a multi faceted genius re: bands he has pepped up during his multi faceted career - from the smiths to squeeze to mike and the mechanics.................................... or he was just knocking about the right studio at the right time... there is only one Paul Carrick, isn't there....?

Mr Mason mit seinem wunderbar britischen Humor. Wir alle können froh sein, dass die Herren, welche alle fast bzw 80 Jahre sind, mental wie physisch noch so gut im Spiel sind, um uns allen den Genuss ihrer Musik zu bieten. Thank you Nik Mason, im Juli 2024 in Leipzig, Haus Auensee. Sea you Ladys and Gentleman!😘

Dads bringing kids; i took my 16 yr old daughter to Saucers at Gateshead this year. Great fun. She now has a large copy of the original saucers poster on her bedroom wall.😊😊

"Clatter of zimmer frames in the mosh pit" - love it! Great interview.
Great interview, and I love how KZbin's closed captioning refers to the band as "Nick Mason's sort of full of secrets" 🤣🛸 I was lucky enough to see the band play in Phoenix.

I've always thought two guests who'd be so interesting on Word In Your Ear would be Tommy Steele & Marty Wilde. Those guys were there at the very beginning of the British pop music scene, & they're great & very talkative people.

I reckon Marty would be up for it, not sure about Tommy, he seems to want to put his 'rocking' years behind him and refuses to talk about them. Not surprising since he reckoned he gave Elvis a guided tour of London!.

Saw this fantastic band in Sheffield last year. Far, far better than Pink Floyd ever were.

Pink Floyd was The Nick Mason Band - Nick was the only person to be constantly in the band, whereas Gilmour was out briefly around 1981, Wright was out at other times and Waters left after The Final Cut.
