Honestly, in my opinion, everyone just wants Pink Floyd to tour so bad they get ideas instead of honest to god direct facts. Sure it would be only the most wonderful thing in the universe if they did, but I don't see that happening right now.

Problem is that David Gilmour really doesn't want to tour with the group anymore.....If it is another 3 piece I do believe Dark Side would be hard to do without Gilmour.....I could see Waters, Wright, and Mason doing either "Wish You Were Here" or "The Wall.......

I don't believe Roger was alluding to a tour, per se. After reading the interview, my feeling is that there is a strong possibility Pink Floyd (Gilmour, Waters, Mason, Wright) may occasionally reunite for special events and one-offs.
I think that Roger and company found out that performing on the spur of the moment gigs is easier then making ellaborate concept albums. I feel that Dave wants to end the Floyd saga on a good note. Hopefully everything will accomadate to their needs which in turn might bring us a special occasion gig. Having seen Dave at Live 8, he didn't show no emotion at all while playing. Nowadays, artists who have reached a certain age and have had their prime tend to want to leave on good notes. Pink Floyd, in my opinion, are one of the richest UK bands of all time and their popularity is growing everyday. Just look at how many new generations of music listeners are joining this forum. This band is starting to want to lend their $$$ out to charity. Possably because they can make the world a better place. Another idea of mine was for them to record a new song or two, which Van Halen did on their recent greatest hits. It didn't hurt for them to come up with something new even though they played their hits. One song could be a jam, the other a collaboration with all PF members in the lyrics and music departments.

good news for all you lot then Dave Gilmour has said that he wants to get the band up and running again in yesterdays Daily Star (06/10/05) the only thing stopping them is Roger's commitments to the Cara Ira stage show so watch this space people :D
The big problem was solved when they decided to play at live8 again.They proved to themselves that they could play together,that the emotions are cooled nowadays,and that there is no more(or very little) conflicts among the members.
I have read Dave Gilmour's statement where he said there is little possibility(or not at all) for Pink Floyd to tour again.BUT,that is the same thing Waters was saying couple of months ago,but now he says he is willing to perform with bandmates again,and he HOPES there will be reunion tour.And I also think there will be it.Not only because of huge amount of money they will earn if they do it,bat also because they feel thay are the strongest when they are together.Waters,Gilmour,Mason and Wright are all very good musicians,but,when they play together,they are music gods.Not to mention that music needs them,and I believe they also feel it,they know that today's music is 90% ******.These are main reasons why I am almost sure they will play again.And,if it happens,it would change and reform complete contemporary music,because this tour would show to all mediocres what the real band is,what art is.

Why do people who think PF is a good band doubt their ability to make good music if they got back together, seems the thinking is counteractive. I would think they would have more insight now at the musical creation process then they ever had before.
