David Gilmour Performs Floyd’s ‘One of These Days’ For First Time In Decades

David Gilmour dug deep into his catalog on Saturday night in Wroclaw, Poland and pulled out the track One of These Days.

The song, from the 1971 Pink Floyd album Meddle, had not been performed live since an October 29, 1994 Pink Floyd show at Earl’s Court in London. Over the years, Floyd had done the song at over 470 shows but Gilmour had never included it in any solo concert.

The Saturday night show was Gilmore’s first of the latest leg of the Rattle That Lock tour. He had taken the past two months off.

The first set was identical the what Gilmour had played earlier in the year. The second set saw the dropping of Astronomy Domine from The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, which was replaced by One of These Days, and the addition of Dancing Right in Front of Me from Rattle That Lock.

The set list:
