It's been no secret that since Waters left in 83 that he has been wanting to get back into the Floyd camp.? When Gilmour starts talking reunion, then I'll listen.? Rogers has been sayng the same thing for years.
Speaking of the Live 8 gig, notice how Gilmour wasn't even looking over at Waters during their set? That to me shows that if Floyd ever toured again, it probably won't be with Waters

nah, they are cordial to each other.. ive seen pics of them drinking champagne and laughing and Nick Mason said they once went out to dinner. Once the solo album and tour of Gilmour ends Im pretty sure pigs will fly.

Pink Floyd singer/guitarist David Gilmour plans to mount his first solo tour in years following the March 6 release of a new album titled "On an Island," according to a Reuters report. The outing will begin with a European leg that launches March 10 in Germany, and is expected to hit North America in April, according to the report.

Their fans grew up and somehow collectively convinced young teenagers that Pink Floyd is the way of life or something. Now, all these young people think Pink Floyd's lyrics are so deep and tha Dave Gilmour is a guitar genius. They suck. You need to be high to appreciate their music. By *appreciate* I mean stay awake..

Ok, I LOVE Radiohead.
And I really like Pink Floyd.
If you don't see what's appealing about those bands, you really need to try harder. If you don't like them, that's fine. But the music has obviously struck a chord with people seeing how Pink Floyd have been "hip" since the 70s.

Wow. "Convinced young teenagers that Pink Floyd is a way of life". I understand that you don't appreciate the Floyd. Thats ok. But the above statement is wrong. People enjoy Floyd for the tunes. Not because we were "convinced". I'm curious though, what bands do you enjoy?

Sweet...im gonna be the winner of the "most retarded person ever" contest.
I can name my reasons why I think Pink Floyd sucks and is massively overrated. But why don't any of you shed some light as to what makes Pink Floyd so great. The last three posts said the same thing, pretty much nothing.
Actually, you don't have to tell me whats great about them...just make sure you like them because you genuinely think their music is great - not because the whole world raised Pink Floyd on to a pedistule and they somehow have become rock gods. Nowadays, every radio DJ in the country talks about them like musical icons and to question that is considered like denying WWII.
As far as bands I like...why do you wonder? Have you taken offense to me saying Pink Floyd is boring and want to discuss general musical tastes?

No, I haven't taken offence at all. In fact, i'm rather intrigued By your statements about the Floyd. I really haven't met anyone who didn't appreciate at least some of Floyds offerings. I'm curious about some of the bands that you enjoy, namely because I would like to know if there are any similarities between the bands you enjoy, and Floyd.
What prompted me to post in reply to your statements were the fact that you wrote that people are "convinced" to like Floyd. I disagree. I can see how kids are "convinced" to enjoy people like Ashlee Simpson and Rap because it's forced down peoples throat through pop culture and MTV. But Floyd is a whole different thing. Sure they get alot of radio play, but people enjoy their contribution to music. If people are convinced to like Floyd, then I guess people are convinced to like Zeppelin, The Beatles, etc due to massive playback on the radio.

Pink Floyd fans can officially put the reunion rumours to bed.
Despite a successful one-off show at Live8 last summer and speculation of tour dates later this year, the band is "over," according to former singer-guitarist David Gilmour.
Speaking in an interview with Italian newspaper La Repubblica, he stated that a reunion is definitely not in the cards.
"The band? It's over," announced Gilmour. "Reunited because of the good cause, to get over the bad relationship, and not to have regrets.
"I think I've had enough. I am 60. I don't want to work much anymore. It's an important part of my life, I have had enormous satisfactions, but now it's enough. It's much more comfortable to work on my own."
Gilmour also stated that his thoughts have nothing to do with the tension between he and co-founder Roger Waters, who left the band in 1983, and didn't play with them again until Live8.
"The issue about Roger is irrelevant, because even without him I don't want to go on as Pink Floyd... I am fine as I live now. It was fantastic but now I don't feel like (it) any more."

i dont really like their music either, i could count the number of pink floyd songs that i like on one hand with three fingers cut off...
