Vienna July 1st, 1988 - Extra Guitarist?

[gorilla1973]

I was informed by a friend, who was reading pinkfloydarchives.com, that it listed there being an unnamed guitarist showing up on stage during the encores of One Slip and Run Like Hell. You can easily see him with a red bandana in the audience videotape of the show. At first I thought it was Mark Knopfler, but it doesn't really look like him.

Does anyone have any information about this unknown guitarist? Many thanks in advance.

Not Scott Page?

[Journey Man]

Best guess would be Phil Taylor maybe?

already in 1988?

[Journey Man]

Also, Adams was left-handed; mystery guitarist is right-handed.

[Pottel]

found nothing in the Visual documentary, nor in Vernon's book. looking for any video evidence for that show now.
would be good to get a direct link to that claim on the archives page.

Nils Lofgren

[Pottel]

in the video there IS indeed another player visible as of 02:10:06 (veeery short) and then again later on. but the cam was potato quality so hard to distinguish. preeeeeettty darn sure that it is not Knopfler.

[Pottel]

also pretty sure it was not Andy Taylor either....

[Pottel]

Would go for Nils Lofgren. Springsteen Tunnel Of Love Express Tour was in Europe by then. Between Rotterdam and Stockholm they had day off on 1st july... So could be

Scott Page played guitar on some title during the tour in 88. Are you sure this is not him ?

just check the link, it has time links to the songs, real easy. but yes, i am VERY sure, you can very clearly see Scott and then Nils Lofgren with the headband

[Alanko]

Scott Page is visible playing guitar in the Vienna footage and that mullet is unmistakable. The guy with the headband is definitely another musician.

[Emdy]

Roger in disguise.

[MrFender]

It does look like Nils. Not our Nils, a different Nils.
