Pink Floyd reunion

I read and heard about a Pink Floyd reunion with the fouor original members, anyone hear that, too? I love Pink Floyd. I wonder if this reunion will be recorded. I saw Pink Floyd once, the David Gilmore version, but I have always wanted to see the full blown version. It would be great if their reunion prompted a world tour. I might even buy one of the high priced tickets on sale these days to see that show. And you know they would the show tickets will be pricey.

It's also been written in this months Word magazine (UK) that intially Gilmour flatly refused to do the gig.

Waters phoned him direct after Geldof failed to convince him.
Apparently Gilmour has been working on a solo record which is due out and had serious doubts about the motivation of the other Floyd members keeness to do the gig.

The real irony seems to be that Gilmour has been left in the role that Waters used to inhabit-the band leader who has to oversee everything, control everything or it won't work.

I think we've seen the last of Floyd.

Actually that happened in 1979 with the release of The Wall. Everything after that has been window dressing.

So was the Live8 gig a mirage?

I must respectfully disagree with you Judy426. "The Final Cut" is one of the best in my opinion and sounds wonderful on vinyl. And the others since then while not classic Floyd are very good also.
