One of the absolute greatest guitarists to ever live IMHO.
You should celebrate his birthday by indulging in a little Floyd/Gilmour.

    Absolutely one of the greats. And a pretty darned good singer (and don't forget songwriter) to boot! Both his guitar style and his vocals were perfect fits for Pink Floyd's music.

    If I could wish David a Happy Birthday I would. I will wish a Happy Birthday to the person that shares a B-day with David that would be you decal happy birthday. I agree nothin better than a Gilmour solo to get one in the mood.

    And for the gear folks on the stage side of the speakers... Gilmourish! (that's a link -- wish the color scheme made that more obvious).

    Hey, you said he was 66 today. If he turned 66 a couple of days ago, he's still 66 today, right?

    If I could I would wish Mr. Gilmour a belated birthday. I'am guessing you are years and 2 days off that date.
