Pink Floyd

Twenty something years ago two people fell out.

Happens all the time. In this instance it would not normally raise any eyebrows but the two in question were David Gilmour & Roger waters. Two others also involved - Richard Wright & Nick Mason.

Last weekend these four were reunited onstage in Hyde Park as part of the G8 concerts. The 'Make Poverty History Campaign'

The four in question are otherwise known as - Pink Floyd.

For me it was a moment to pause and dry an eye. How poignant, how bittersweet was this moment? We have waited and waited and hoped that 'the differences' could be overcome and once more we would see two excellent muscians get together in order to produce music. No disappointment here for triumph. You still can do it.

To see them onstage with one voice, with one hope, with one desire... How cruel then to learn that no album is planned. No victory tour is imminent.

I ask now as a fan of purity... Please; PLEASE, sit down and write another album. Dedicate the earnings to Africa. Dedicate it to George Bush! But, please just do what everyone wants - Write another album. Do the final tour as a maybe. Let the people know that the music transcends even the deepest emotion. And that your music can Unite people.
