On what subject, which band member will die first? I know you suggested you think Rick will be the first to pass on above. Would not be a pleasant poll to have to think about. Not a popular poll.

i was considering it. i say rick as he looks the frailest of the 3 (i'm not counting roger) No, it's not a nice topic, actually, especially since David has young children.

Did you hear Jonathan Ross's joke about Des O'Connor's new baby? It was funny - he said "By the time he's a teenager, Des will be... dead!"

let's witch topic

Well, they are senior citizens by now. In 5 years they'll lose their eye-hand cordination and won't be able to play it like they used to (I belive that already happened). In 10 to 15 years, the odds are two of them will probably be dead (maybe not, they are rich enough to afford the best doctors). So, if they want to make a new album (they will never tour again, that's for sure), it must happen now. Right now. Before it's too late.

But the funny thing is, there will always be this "will they reunite" discussion, until one of them die. Well, except for Syd, I wouldn't be surprised if they performed one last time at Syd's funeral.

:( its still sad....

You can't not count Roger or Syd, wowser. There will always be 5 PF members even if a couple parted company with the vehicle.

Ok, before I finally give up for good:

Syd's going to the great gig in the sky first. That 2002 photo of him was creepy, he looks so much older than the rest of the band... He'll die on his sleep I guess.

Then, it'll be Rick, he dosen't look to good either, he never did, and then David, because he is the one who has aged the most, I mean look at him in "pompeii", look at him now.

Then Roger, on stage, while performing a song from Amused to Death, see the irony there? Heart atack. Crowd going wild.

Nick, well, he will live until he's 90, I belive. He seems to be in shape.

That's hilarious, in a morbid sort of way. :laugh:

You know what I just imagined at this moment? David Gilmour secretly coming to this message board so he can read what people are talking now about PF, and considering a concempt for a new PF album based on the posts.

And then he reads this one, and as a tear rolls through his face, he just stares and say "why?! why do this people want me to die?!". And he scrapps the whole album idea, and goes back to bed, totally depressed, and scared of his fans.

:D

Okay, so what would happen if PF reunited, announced a world tour and then refused to play any of thier old songs? What if all they played was a bunch of new stuff? And what if the new stuff was...really bad? Then again, what if all they played was the old songs? Lots of time has passed between their albums' release dates and now (heck, they're not even called albums anymore). Could/would we have a relevance issue?

No. I think we need to leave well-enough alone and let PF's music remain a part of the past with the importance that each of us individually assign it.
