its the greatest band ever !!!!

was... some hundred years ago

[Kosmo]

They were good back then they took acid like I drink this juice here. But these days they are just lame old guys.

But on the bright side, I think they'll be playing the old songs that were made while tripping so it evens out nicely.

Half of me is pleased to see it, the other half fears they're a bunch of old men that won't be able to rekindle the old magic. Waters' voice is allegedly totally shot, (or so I've read) so he can't really do solo stuff any more; this olive branch may pave the way for a reunion of sorts beyond the live 8 gig. I'm sure Geldof will be delighted, as PF are a band that truly transcend the generation gap (and pretty much every other gap you could care to mention), unlike a lot of older bands. Plus it'll be a huge coup in terms of publicity. I just hope they can set their egos aside and put on a good show, considering they've spoken through lawyers & the courts for the last God knows how long.

it is indeed 24 years ago they joined together on a scene. But no, they are by no means old and outdated. Their CD's still sells more than anything else, and darkside of the moon is still no. 3 on the most sold album list. Think its Michael Jackson with thriller thats no. 1. Anwayz It will be an amazing event. Btw whats that stuff you are saying that he can solo anymore. He has been working on operas the past few years, while the other made one last CD The division bell. It was released like 11 years ago, so the band isnt that dead. They have also been touring (without Waters)

ohh btw... Waters you are still an asshole, even though you are a genius when it comes to music

[Defrag]

I simply mean he allegedly can't sing anymore, which obviously would limit his solo career (I never really cared for much of the solo stuff from either Waters or Gilmour anyway). As for PF, I'm not sure when their last tour was, but I'm fairly certain it's in the order of a decade ago. That's a fair amount of time

I heard on tuesday from a friend that they are going on a tour.

If this is true or not i haven't checked yet.

But it would be nice if it is.

I heard at least 4 gigs they will do.

1 in Germany and the others i don't remember.

To bad they aint coming to Sweden couse i would surely go.

Some of my mates were slagging off the lineup and then as soon as Pink Floyd were announced they were constantly texting away in order to secure the tickets

[Crackerjack]

beautifull, just beautifull...!! Roger Waters has lost some of his voice, but it was still AMAZING !!!

they started with breath (reprise) then Money followed by Wish you were here... they ended with Comfortably numb..... I dont know which of them was the best, I only know it was absolutly unbelievable ..!!!!

[Grin]

Found and bought two original PF lp-records, Dark Side of the Moon and a collection called "great dance songs" or something. Both are in very good condition, they're playing on the background right now.

Yeah, PF is great music, hope I'll find Empty Spaces on an lp someday..wanna play it to my friends backwards
