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.

A rekindled interest in a tour would be fantastic! I only saw them twice, post Sid and with RW. The first time was at the release of DSOTM, at the Irvine Auditorium in Philadelphia, a round auditorium purpose built in the 20's to house a pipe organ, seating is about 1,100 I believe. The second set that night was DSOTM, a very memorable and colorful evening it was...
Lets not discount the efforts that Gilmour has invested in trying to get the band back together. He said in an interview that he would like to continue recording with Waters and in another interview Waters stated he was not willing to talk to anyone in the band nor the interviewer about the indifference. If you listen to the words on the Divison Bell and under stand the concept of the Division Bell I feel it is very clear that Gilmour has approached Waters and as he puts it "Kindley told to go f- myself"
But hopefully they will work things out. The Eagles did after all acknowledge that "Hell Froze over"
Theo what efforts are these Gilmour made?-this is a statement without substance sure DG can seem like a much more polite individual than Waters in interviews but to the best of my recollection he has never did anything to negotiate Waters back into the band.He has run post-Waters Floyd just as autocratically as Waters did in the later years.
Check the other'Gon Floyd thread there's a direct quote from Gilmour where he calls Waters "a Prick".

Whilst Waters paid the price of imagining Floyd were nothing without him any analysis of the Waters/Gilmour relationship will show there was always underlying problems and at times real antipathy.
I thought that the issue was that Waters didnt like the ego trips Pink Floyd (Gilmour mainly) were going as their fame grew...Waters said many times that he didnt care to play to audiences sitting 150 yards away...the whole kit and kabootle was just getting to be a circus...thats why he had the band playing behind The Wall...

Honestly, there is no remote comparison in the quality of the music that Waters made on his own and in Floyd compared to Gilmour's Floyd ( Gilmour loves the big shows, lasers, and big choruses). Gilmour definitely has the ego going...Gilmours solo LP's just show how little direction he had on his own, and so did his Floyd.
I have to disagree somewhat with Jsujo. While I prefered PF with RW, Gilmour has made some very good solo stuff and Floyd music. Of course, this is only my own opinion and others have the right to disagree.
