I think every Pink Floyd fans daydreams about some type of reunion show or tour. I have only had the oppurtunity to see Roger Waters...not the whole band. I saw RW on the 2000 tour and it was amazing. I am also going to the Hollywood show this year.

I do not think the band can call themselves Pink Floyd without Roger, nor he without them. I LOVE Floyd deeply, I listen every day of my life.............post Rogers Floyd does not appeal to me in the same way as the real deal. Honestly, I lean more toward Roger, because his voice is so unique....and "floydian"..........Don't get me wrong, I love all the members, but to me someone else singing the intro to Comfortably Numb [Pulse] sounds weird.

I try to stay up to date, and all of the members since Live 8 have rejected a tour, but never totally rejected the idea of another show - "for the right cause".

I'd like to see them do a reunion album, even if it was just one show in Egypt... with the stage setup between the paws of the Sphinx, the Pyramids in the background on the night of a total lunar eclipse.....

whoa......need to put the pyrex out of arms reach............ Devil

Live 8 was nice and any future reunions will also be nice. A new album with original members? There's really no need for it and their creative dynamic is fractured beyond repair anyway.

These guys already did it. There's plenty of Floyd to listen to. If you's itchin' for some Floyd, just pick an album at random and enjoy.

My only wish, on a personal level,would be to see the band play as a whole because I never saw that. Still, it wouldn't be the same now as it was in their heyday.

I think on some level, we'd all like to see them make up for lost time, but life rarely works that way.

as Rog "the Hat" has said "Musicians have big egos...you should know all about that"...a band that tours together lives together...I see my ex wife for my kids...not to work...it's done..."you've gotta go out on tour, you owe it to the people, we're sooo happy we could all make out"...The band just can't get along w/ Roger long enough to tour or make a record...and to tour now?...what COULD they play?...It would take 4 hours to scratch the surface..live 8 worked for me...let 'em retire..I hope Syd's sister still gets royalties.

That would be incredible. To be honest, I don't agree with all of these people who want a full tour and a new album. If they don't feel right playing with each other then we shouldn't force them to do those things. But, personally, after they have said themselves they would do another event like Live 8, surely paying tribute to their original genius member who they wish was here fits the bill.

I've Always thought in my fantacies that Roger will reunite with the floyd one last time and go on a worldwide tour, but we all know that might not be likely. Roger seems very solid with his solo career, same with Dave, but you never know......
