According to Bob Geldof, he called Dave Gilmour on the phone and the conversation went like this: Bob: Hello David, will you paticipate in the Pink Floyd reunion for Live 8? Dave: No, not really Bob: come on the others are in, let me come to see you... Dave: NO, no don't even come, it's not worth wasting your trip, I am not doing it Bob: But I am already on the train!! Dave: oh, alright, come and we'll talk
@BeeBumper6 жыл бұрын
Well I think Roger was being tactful, the conversation happened before Roger did the call, it was after Bob couldn't convince David that Roger called and his version is still how it unfolded. I also heard Roger felt David had a right to reservations, so he made it clear hey this is just a better way for the old Floyd to give back and give their fans what they would clearly want to see one last time. It must have went well because David reprised his role on Comfortably numb at one of Rogers Wall shows, O2 Arena 2011 I believe, it has been on youtube but it gets pulled and then reappears.

In 2008 I was working on a commercial at Black Island Studios in Acton, I guess that would still be considered part of London, though it looked like a suburb to this yank. Anyway, on the door of one of the stalls of the restroom of the soundstage I was at was written "Pigs fly, the Floyd lives!"...I'm assuming written by one of the exited crew who worked the rehearsal for the Live8 reunion, which happened on that soundstage. That's how I learned where the reheasal took place 3 years prior...and it always struck me as funny, because right next door is a Staples office supply store. And so at some point in 2005 a whole bunch of people were buying toner cartridges and, well, staples and pens...having NO IDEA that not just a few hundred feet away, Pink Floyd was performing together for what amounted to the final few hours of their existence as the classic foursome, with Rick's passing not that long afterwords. To have been a fly on those walls. Interestingly enough, while I was there Paul Weller was rehearsing for his tour, and I had his exact haircut. Very awkward glances exchanged in the loading dock.

I get that, but I always thought of the beatles as kind of kids music compared to PF. They were the originators of course, of so many things,but their music always seemed a little middle eigth. I kind of lost all respect for them when Paul said about some song "we literally sat down to write a new swimming pool". One thing about Roger is that he's a son of a bitch but he's up front about it. I hear all kinds of creepy stories about the beatles, Lennon used to hit his first wife and neglect his kid, George nailed Ringo's wife, and all kinds of soap opera stuff, whereas Pink Floyd is more like an actual opera. Almost Shakespearean when you look at the band AND the music. Oh right, my point was that I heard John Lennon was trying to reform the Beatles just prior his death, but maybe that was hearsay. Had he lived, can you imagine them at Live Aid?? I always found it odd Pink Floyd wasn't there, but back then the Beatles reforming would have been huge.

For me it was Roger, his voice was totally floyd for me, he had the best ideas, the best decisions, the best choices, the best lyrics, the best voice texture and expression. Gilmour provided the perfect guitar sound but ive never liked his voice except on the studio albums, it sounded different somehow. When Roger left I totally lost interest in floyd they lost their sound and direction, and Gilmours wife writing lyrics, give me a break, they should have changed their name to the dave gilmour show.

Just to air a contrary point of view. I loved the post-Roger Floyd, including Polly's lyrics. Not as much as I loved the middle era Floyd, but a lot more than I loved the Wall and Final Cut. Roger's solo stuff was, for me, mostly meh until recently.
@Greggorious1237 жыл бұрын
I don't even think Polly Samson's lyrics are that great. I liked the Floyd's albums after Waters left, but they were nothing special, they were merely nice middle of the road rock albums. Waters gave them the edge, musically, lyrically and politically. As for who's a better singer, I think it all depends on what you like in a singer. Technically speaking, Gilmour is better, he has a more melodic and musical voice, however Waters has passion and character in his voice so I guess it all depends on what song it is. Personally I love it when they share vocals, such as Comfortably numb, Dogs and even Not now John.
