During the Comfortably Numb solo you can see that you just walk up and watch David Gilmour from just a few feet away. No other ordinary person in the world gets that opportunity. {censored}ers.

So, no Toronto, mcnabbanoy. I doubt he'll show for the Boston gig I'm going to either. Probably somewhere where he would like to go and has friends... maybe L.A. or something.

Shame Wright is gone.+1 and I'm sure it will happen in the next few years (DSOTM 40th anniversary maybe )Real shame about Wright, songs like "Us and Them" won't be the same If there was a Floyd reunion it's most likely that Waters' son would be on keys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ben Co. Posted August 17, 2010 Members Share Posted August 17, 2010 If there was a Floyd reunion it's most likely that Waters' son would be on keys I think the reason why they're actually getting along (apparently) is because, with Rick's death, Pink Floyd is no longer a bone of contention. There IS no more Pink Floyd... it's finally over. Nothing to fight about, nothing to sue over. And perhaps Rick's death gave them a nudge about their own mortality as well. Additionally, a good part of the tension in the Wall period was regarding Roger wanting to throw Rick out of the band (which he ultimately had done) and Gilmour being on Rick's side and thinking that that was a really {censored}ty thing to do. With no more Rick... well, there you go. There won't be a Floyd 'reunion'. What I'm hoping for is a totally separate and different Gilmour / Waters collaboration perhaps in the future. But I wouldn't bank on that either. It wasn't that long ago (after Live 8) that Gilmour was asked if the Floyd would get back together sometime again and the answer was simple and definite: "It ain't gonna happen.". He didn't even want to do Live 8 as/with "Pink Floyd" and turned that down several times to Geldof who finally convinced him after much coercion.

Members Webinfront_ Posted August 17, 2010 Members Share Posted August 17, 2010 Wright is one of my favorite players. His taste was amazing. I agree. I'd have practically zero interest in seeing a reunited Floyd because he wouldn't be there, just wouldn't be the same. Seriously, he's at the heart of so many of their best songs.

Pink Floyd "hits" have gotten pretty damn tired.I would kill to see Gilmour, Waters, and Mason play DSOTM all the way through. Shame Wright is gone. If I saw a Pink Floyd reunion I'd like to see some stuff from DSOTM, Meddle, and Saucerful, a long with Green is the Colour, Fat Old Sun, and Interstellar Overdrive (in tribute to Syd.) I wouldn't want to hear too much DSOTM, because some of those songs I've heard about a million times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, he's at the heart of so many of their best songs. Agreed - Rick Wright was a huge influence. All you need to do is listen to all 4's solo albums and you can tell where Rick was just a huge influence on what was called 'The Floyd Sound'. I firmly believe that albums like Meddle and Dark Side (not to mention WYWH) just wouldn't have been successful without Rick. Dave at his heart is a pentatonic blues guitarist, Roger is a percussive and staccato songwriter, and Rick was the jazzy glue that allowed for a landscape for them to paint their ideas on. Oh yea, and Nick kept time alright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members butterknucket Posted August 17, 2010 Members Share Posted August 17, 2010 I agree that their ability to now play together stems from Rick's death and him no longer being able to be a thorn in Roger's side, but what do I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
