Wow!!! - even though this may be a one off reuninting, lets hope it may lead to other things as they often do!!!! How bootlegged will this show be now, though if it is broadcast on TV won't matter. Never thought Roger and Dave would ever be seen 100 feet from each other.

Are you all aware that EDM is a direct derivative of Floyd!!! IMO

NICE :D

Its true...Its all over the news....but one catch

Its only for one show....Sure hope they have a blast doing it and decide to tour again one last final time....

Man that would be the ultimate....Just to hear stuff from animals, meddle played live again....

Luckily I was able to catch Floyd on the Division Bell tour in 1994

and I also saw Roger Waters perform in 2001

that is some incredibly great news! floyd rule!

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

I just looked into airfare to London... Damn!!!! Pink Floyd is THE band that I've always wanted to see but have not.

I hope they tour again... I pray that they decide to do it once more for people like me, who have their albums but have never heard them live.

We should start an online petition to the band requesting that they tour.

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

would be wicked if they did a replay of pulse live. they could sell a million tickets for it and there would still be 3 million people on line for tickets. one of the biggest musical influences on any band around. haunting lyrics and vocal work. gorgeous melodies. and mind blowing live shows.

Well as far as I know the only way you could get a ticket was to send a text message in. They then replied to all the winners... one of which is Hos from this board. :roll:

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

hopefully this will spawn a tour. i would love to see them live. i read somewhere last night that they will only be playing 4 songs at this concert; 3 from dark side of the moon & one other... could be wrong though

#438086Post 29 of 94

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

There was a rumour that there was a 100 or was that 200 million dollar guarantee for them to get back together and tour. Another Enzo Ferrari for Nick Mason and Dave Gilmour I guess.

Lets start guessing what their set will be (I'm guessing 40 minutes - that may be way too long but how could Floyd do anything less)

  1. Interstellar Overdrive
  2. Money
  3. Time
  4. Wish
  5. Brick in the Wall
  6. Comfortably Numb
  7. a new song!!!!!

only 40 minutes? weak!

wonder if Syd will be there

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

I think he is still out of it from his daily LSD doses back in the 60's

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

I really hope the MTV/VH1 coverage will show the Floyd performance, but we will most likely see the typical crap.. Snoop, 50 cent, Mariah etc...

I hope to god your right...Such a histroic event you would think that would be a no brainer...They havent played together since 1980 something.

#444325Post 35 of 94

^ I just hope that I get hear the show or watching it will be cool. Some needs to record this if this air on radio one.

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

I know XM will be broadcasting on a few channels.

#444374Post 38 of 94

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

Still The best way to get a true Feel of the pink floyd is to watch

Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii 1972......I have watched that video at least a hundred times

Truthfully i believe the Floyd were one of the tru pioneers of electronic sounds

#444402Post 39 of 94

^ I agree. I seen a bootleg video during the wall tour and it was absolutly amazing.

#444467Post 40 of 94

Re: Pink Floyd reuniting for that London Live 8 concert...

I'm most certain that they will end up releasing it as a dvd. Those guys know how to market themselves.

BTW, caught them on the Division Bell Tour in 94???93???? I can't remember for sure. But DAMN was it the best live show i've ever been to in my life. :D
