Roger in Rolling Stone

[Mullet]

The latest issue of Rolling Stone they did and interview with Rogar Waters. I couldn't find a link of it anywhere so I'll just type out the part that I thought was interesting. (yes, I'm just too lazy to type it all out.)

RS = Rolling Stone
RW = Rogar Waters


RS: Are Pink Floyd going to be the one huge Seventies band that could have gotten back together but didn't?

RW: I don't know - probably. In the case of The Eagles, I doubt that "hell froze over" because of a huge outpouring of brotherly love - I suppose that cash had something to do with it. And Dave recently was quoted as saying he's got far too much money.
If I was on my uppers, it's possible that we might have a reunion tour. But I'm not, thank God.
-taken from Q&A by Nathan Brackett, Rolling Stone 891

I thought that it was interesting that Waters didn't totally throw out the idea of a reunion tour. I guess we can all hope that Rogar will go on his uppers and that Dave loses alot on money.

he was just being a jackass.

Dave is losing money. He did sell his house for charity.

What does Roger want to say "If I was on my uppers" (i am german, and i am sorry)

Hehe...That wacky Roger!

Ya' know--I just don't get what's with him. Given that the information floating around regarding Pink Floyd is true, it would seem that if anyone should be pissed it should be Dave and (especially) Rick, but both of them have tried to reconcile, and Roger just continues to be a prick about it all.

Did anybody see his clip in the VH1 Syd Barret documentary where he discounted Rick's influence on Dark Side and tooted his own horn on the lyrics? That was hilarious--classic Roger!

I think the man's a genius and all, but he's seriously got to grow up. How old is he now--56 or something?

What else would you expect from Rog?

[cho.manno]

You know, Waters has left Floyd in 1985, and 17 years after, he still isn't interested in reconciliate with the guys, or even talk to them. I don't know if someday he'll ever join PF again. But I still dream with it, every day.

[Madcap Diamond]

I think YOU people should grow up.

You guys expect too much from a homosapien. Let's remember, he's only a human being. I can believe that after all these years, he still has the same psyche. Why isn't it hard to believe. I dunno, i guess i just have a thing for sticking up for roger.

That is the link to the whole article.

Read it before you comment on Roger's attitude.

Secondly, how would you like to be in your fifties and have pressure from thousands, perhaps millions, of strangers to reunite with guys that you knew and worked with when you were in your thirties?

Floyd fans are such dopes.

[APerfectLusk]

You would know.
