    NEW YORK, Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason will
make a rare in-store appearance at the Midtown Best Buy (529 5th Avenue at
44th Street) on Thursday, September 14, beginning at 6 p.m. (MEDIA CALL:
5:30 p.m.).
    Mason will meet and greet fans and sign copies of Pink Floyd's best-
selling multi-platinum DVD, "Pulse," available at all Best Buy locations.
    Shortly after its release, "Pulse" -- a landmark DVD collection
documenting the 1994 Division Bell tour including the band's first-ever
filmed performance of "The Dark Side of the Moon" -- became the #1 music
DVD on both sides of the Atlantic topping the charts in Austria, Belgium,
Holland, Ireland, Italy, Norway, the UK and the United States, where
debuted with first week's sales of 92,815 units, according to SoundScan.
"Pulse," which had one of the Top 3 best first week's sales in the United
States of any music DVD in history, has gone on to become one of the Top 10
best-selling music DVDs ever.
    Nick Mason is the author of "Inside Out - A Personal History of Pink
Floyd," the definitive story of Pink Floyd, a band who's sold 116 million
albums worldwide and spent more than a quarter century on the planet's pop
charts. Mason first played with Roger Waters and Syd Barrett at the Regent
Street Polytechnic in London in 1964, although they wouldn't become Pink
Floyd until the following year.
