Pink Floyd to play at Live 8

Just read on teletext that the Dark side of the moon Line up of Pink Floyd will play Live 8, I.E Roger Waters, Dave Gilmour,Nick Mason,and Rick Wright, Now if Bob Geldof has managed to get Roger Waters to play again with Dave Gilmour sorting out world debt should be a piece of P1ss.
Will be intresting to see if The Floyd follow this appearence up with others with the 4 of them together or is it just a one off?.

Its a bugger that im in Belarus at the time as would love to see that gig for sure even if just on TV>

This is wonderful news to hear that the old line-up are getting back together. I really hope it goes well for them.

I guess all the guys in the band are older and wiser now, and are ready to let the disputes of the past lie for a much bigger cause. The entire concert sounds like it will be superb, but Pink Floyd alone will make it worth buying the DVD and CD when they come out (as I’m sure they will). Sadly in a concert like this with loads of acts, the guys of Floyd may only get a couple of songs in.

One concert, no matter how big, will never sort out world debt.

It’s not the concert that’s supposed to do it, it’s the G8 leaders.

The comment was ment to be tongue in cheek, After all the bad blood and comments between Roger Waters and Dave Gilmour in the past.

Yes I’m in full agreement. 😉

No problem with that comment at all mate, I’m sitting here chuckling at the thought of Bob Geldof gently swaying in his executive chair and thinking “Pink Floyd back together… done. World debt sorted out… done. Hmm, what next…? Ah yes, the Middle East. And then lunch.” 😀

The idea of Floyd performing together again is, well, nothing short of magnificent in my book. I’d guess it’s intended to just be a one off, but who knows what might happen? If hatchets get buried, and the boys decide there could be a few quid in it, would they want to tour? Even if it were just a few dates… blimey… you’d have to fight me for a place in the queue…

Cheers Steve i was beginning to think people had missed the point of my posting this completlely, I think Bob Geldof must having been pinching himself to see if he was dreaming when he heard they had agreed to play together again.
I also think if they can bury the hatchet there is bound to the chance of a big money in a tour if they feel they can do it. After all Both Fleetwood Mac and The Eagles managed to see Pounds and Dollars before them instead of hatred and differences, And just like the Fleetwood Mac and Eagles tours i could see me buy a ticket to see the Floyd play given the chance.

If people find it offensive or something i will gladly remove it, I you don’t find it offensive i will also gladly leave it in.
I think its still quiet a thing that Roger Waters will play with Pink Floyd again.
