Pink Floyd reunion

I read and heard about a Pink Floyd reunion with the fouor original members, anyone hear that, too? I love Pink Floyd. I wonder if this reunion will be recorded. I saw Pink Floyd once, the David Gilmore version, but I have always wanted to see the full blown version. It would be great if their reunion prompted a world tour. I might even buy one of the high priced tickets on sale these days to see that show. And you know they would the show tickets will be pricey.

Rick Wright has really been overlooked in the wake of the Waters/Barrett/Gilmour legacy. He is a most subtle, elegant and thoughtful musician. Floyd was really a complete band with, in the best of moments, all players playing as one. We'll see if you can go home again.

Wright's contribution since Animals was close to zero (a fact he freely admits)and as such played a major part in the dissolving of the band and imho the decline in their music.

If Roger Waters isn't a genius, he is at least a better songwriter than your average bear. When I listen to The Wall, Final Cut, and some of his solo stuff, I am in awe of where he comes up with his stuff. He digs deep and comes out with a mess and turns it into some powerful energy, dark as it may be.

He is a fantastic songwriter, no doubt.

Having been only one year old in 1981, it excites me to see them together live, even if I will only see them on TV.

There's just something about watching it when you can consciously remember what's going on.
