Re: Waters Rejoining Floyd....a good or bad thing????

First I find it ironic that PF should be divided by hate & animosity. But I believe that split for what ever reason, could never be bridged without the others submitting to RW's will. As much as it sounds bad, he was the artistic supernova within the band, burning everything insight of his brilliance. I don't reckon the others would make themselves available to that kind of relationship ever again, no matter what PF might be able to achieve with RW's drive & direction.

1) I don't think they're too old to do it. Maybe for Mason, but there isn't anything too physical about strumming strings and hitting keys.

2) Anything's possible in this world.

If Roger came back to the group it would cause some conflicts. The conflicts could be for control of the group or who should sing. If Roger did come back he would want all the credit. If it did happen this album might sound like Floyd but then again Roger has lost a little bit of a Floyd in himself. Floyd are pretty much done for as a four piece so lets wait for another album if we can and if it came out at all. I got over the whole reunion thing when I first heard it was an rumor.

Waters doesn't want to cash in!! Don't you understand!? Some people understand the value of not milking your supposed works of art to the point of complete market saturation. I do not want Roger to get back because he would be going against all those wonderful, pro-music, pro fans ideals that he has lived up to all these years! AAAHHHH! Can't you see? He doesn't want to be a giant superstar commercial compromising band. Are you so lame you don't believe people can turn down huge amounts of money because of deeper principals? That is why those classic floyd albums keep us all here ! There is something more than just commercial product being offered. You aint gonna see it on TV. Waters going back would destroy the last shred of goodness associated with the Floyd. Besides Syd. Waters will never go back anyway. Gilmour is into the lifestyle. Waters is into the work at hand.

Re: Waters Rejoining Floyd....a good or bad thing????

Okay, I haven't the time to read all of these answers, but I read most of them, so if this was already said, forgive me.
Anyways, I can actually see this happen, because like George Harrison said, All Things Must Pass, so I mean, I personally don't think they have to much of a grudge left to hold. Roger is more of the ego-maniac from what I've read about this argument, but we honestly don't know what's going on in their real lives. They could be calling eachother right now and talking to eachother. I read in a recent David Gilmour interview that in 2000 he actually saw Roger at a bar, said "Hello", and Roger took his boys and walked off....but anyways..

Could I see a re-group happening? Unlikely. First off, I'm not saying this because Roger is an ego-maniac or some other obscure thing like that. I think it's personally because all the members have finally gone all their seperate ways, and I'm sure Roger is having fun with his current band that comes along with him on tours, as well as writing his own music. David himself has said that he really doesn't even want to go up in front of an audience and perform anymore, much less record an album, he just doesn't have the desire anymore; he's made his mark. However, this is just my opinion, and I could be very wrong indeed, but if Pink Floyd does make another album, with or without Roger, it will be good, guaranteed. And don't mock The Division Bell, I don't care what anyone says, that is a great album.

right! but we knew some bands like eigles that rejoined after many years .and in the case of pink floyd it's not far from their reach ;we hope.
and about what you pointed out about roger and david conflict in a bar i think rumours sinking everywhere.

may a miracle happens the band would return,Amen

Re: Waters Rejoining Floyd....a good or bad thing????

Roger is busy with "Ca Ira" (isn't he always?) and his new solo album (currently being written). David has plans to release a solo album next year, and tour at the end of 2003/early 2004. Both are getting their solo careers on track, and I for one am more enthusiastic about these upcoming releases than another Floyd album. As much as I think neither of them could be bothered to fight anymore, and they may one day become friends, as far as working together - forget it . Anyone who knows anything about the band should know enough to realise that although the guys may forgive, they cannot forget. Roger was an absolute prick; doing everything he could to stop the band from continuing. David was no saint either; he obviously is as much to blame for his falling out with Roger, as Roger is, taking no small amount of cheap shots at Roger over the years. There's too much bad history there for the two to work together again - at least not recording together. Perhaps they may one day share the stage for one last time, but even then...?

If he did, I doubt that there would be an album, or any new collaboration. Probably just a reunion tour.

Re: Waters Rejoining Floyd....a good or bad thing????

Isn't it funny how we analyze this when these kinds of things happen all the time?

My "best friend" and I just had a rather weak falling-out: unfortunately it just happened without any sort of argument or mistake. Neither one of us will apologize, though we both didn't do anything, and neither one of us will even look the other one's way.

And instead of calling her up right now to see what's going on, I'm wondering how it would be if Roger and Dave reconciled.

How peculiar!

Phone him- you'll be the better man for it, and he'll appreciate that. If he thinks that he's got one up on you because you were weak and called first, get another best mate.

Re: Waters Rejoining Floyd....a good or bad thing????

I believe in PF resurrection as i belive in peace .
Dave , Nick , Richard and Roger must arrange a meeting in some house or appartment , tell all thier bad stuff they talked and done to each other , then forgive each other , completely , with total honesty ( i know they can do it ! they're all smart guys ) and start jamming in the studio , $$$ doesn't matter for them ( age , and they have more then enough , i think ) .
