i still don't get why those two ain't playing together, some childish collision of different points of view, why can't they see when they're together is when everything happens? again, why isn't Pink Floyd composing/playing???
@darkflamer23 Their lyrics weren't good before 1973. Moreover, how pleasing it is to the ear is just as important as lyrics. If that weren't true, you could kiss many of the classical songs goodbye.
I disagree that Pink Floyd floundered after Waters left. In fact, I believe they flourished, if not in their music then in their spirit. Waters was a maniacal dictator and David far outshone him in talent and looks as well.
@dontleademsomuch. the post-waters albums weren't bad, but they weren't brilliant either. It's just like a great recipe. you take away any part of it and it doesn't taste the same. With Water's lyrics and overall conceptual themes, the new floyd albums would have reached that brilliant stature.They came up short.That's my opinion anyway.
I took Dave's side of the argument. He proved that the Floyd was "Alive and well and recording...." back in 1985. He picked up the ball and made the Floyd an even more beautiful thing than it ever was before Roger's ego destroyed the band that was. Rick came back and the three members became a team once again, rather than one man trying to dictate. Roger, thanks for the absolutely brilliant lyrics, but you thought the Floyd would founder without you; never before has anyone been so wrong.
Yes, and his body is nourishing the soil. Which plants will grow from, which animals will eat and then die and nourish the earth again. And Again, and again = neverending life. Or some dude we never see is in the sky controling it all. And everyone has different gods which we can't aggree on so we kill each other over it, but I am sure your god is the correct one.
look people everybody makes mistakes and sometimes things go irrevocably sour i just left my job because it went bad with my bosses we will always talk to each other but we will never work together again and the same applies here they should at least play a gig in ricks memory but how can the magic still be there after so long just apprecite the music we already have and leave the guys in peace
I've read all of the responses and I have this to say. However broken the communication....however distant the relationaship is and probably will remain, the fact that two men who vehemently hated each other after a bitter feud between money and rights...both came away with something positive from Live 8. They consentually agreed to meet and talk and embrace. It was awkward, but they did it. Let's be optimistic here. Roger and Dave actually talked in a civil manner. It's a grand start!!
how sad:( I wonder if the headline "man rips out own vital organ for Pink Floyd to reunite" would catch their attention and convince them to reunite? just an idea
I found this quite sad. It's like, here are two old men who spent their twenties and thirties traveling and conquering the world together, and now it's just this very cold, distant handshake, and a little hug . . . sic transit gloria mundi, eh?
that bit where they walk away is realy symbolic of what hapened after waters left floyd... hes on his own whereas gilmore is surrounded by people. waters is completely infamous now, and only because he has the balls to speak his mind. i went to see him in may this year and half the people there were wearing division bell shirts. can you believe that? he may have been a bit of a prick during the wall tour but big deal, he had a vision, he stuck by it, fair play as far as im concerned...
i wonder if roger waters made his peace with Richard Wright, Before Richard passed away............

I love David Gilmour and everything, but those glasses are awful.
Anyway, it's always nice to see them both together again. I just remember it and smile.

According to atheists Gilmour and Waters, Richard Wright is now nothing but a rotting dead corpse with no spirit or soul
