I'm torn between wanting to see them reunite, or just leaving things be.
With everything that has happened between them, hearing them sing some older stuff now just wouldn't be the same.

Echoes71 Wrote:I believe the key to any possible reunion is Nick, taking in to consideration his reconcilation with Roger in 2002.
Sadly I believe that the Tsunami Disaster may be the type opportunity for the band to play a benefit gig.
Another thought is they may consider a 40th anniversary reunion. l can never envisage there will ever be any new material released under the name Pink Floyd either as a 3 piece or with Roger.
Well, I think a Tsunami benefit show would be a great opportunity to try again. Let's face it, the world is coming together from this in many ways. Why shouldn't the great humanitarians Rogers and Gilmour try to work things out?
There is only one person who could put this type of gig together: Pete Townshend.
Other bands and reunions for this important gig could be:
"Pete Townshend and friends" (NOT the Who! They are really finished as a performing band) he could ask anyone he wants and they could come and play in his band.
Genesis (with Peter Gabriel and Steve Hackett)
Led Zeppelin (with Jason Bonham on drums)
King Crimson (with Robert Fripp, John Wetton, Bill Bruford, and David Cross)
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Yes
Jethro Tull
Cream
This could be a 2 day event.
Can you imagine how much money this would raise?

They could make it into a huge DVD like they did with Live AID

There is to be a charity concert on the 22nd of January for the Tsunami victims at the Cardiff Millenium Stadium. Acts announced so far are Feeder, Lemar and Eric Clapton with more to come later. I know that Clapton and Roger are good friends and performed on each others tours several times. We all know that Roger has said he'd only considered rejoining his band mates for a gig like this but does anyone think it's plausable on such a small time scale? If this is a success I think it could trigger a bigger concerts later in the year. I'm going to keep everything tightly crossed hoping that Roger, Dave, Nick and Rick go out there and play together even just one last time.

Interesting. Would they still have the old magic and timing in sync? Would they be able to stand one another long enough to reherse?
I remember going to see the Eagles at Murryfeild Stadium in Edinburgh a few years back. They all arrived in seperate vehicles, went to seperate dressing rooms, never done a sound check or spoke to one another, walked on stage and played one of the best gigs I've ever seen.
So it is possible you know.........?

Sadly, I think they'll never reunite because
1) Roger's too egotistical and would see it as "losing".
2) Dave's too lazy and don't care.
I hate to say it, but it's true, I think.
Dave just did AMLOR too show Rog he could and would. Division Bell was a flight of fancy and brought back Rick...on the heels of Amused To Death. Now, it's been 11 years. Nothing but compilations, rehashes of this and that. Not one studio album. Not one tour.
Roger, whom I saw live in 1999, just doesn't have the push he used to have either, but he still just can't let things go. Either that or they just don't care anymore.
:(

If they can't reunite for a good cause then they will never reunite.
