Have you heard High Hopes? honestly....

but enough of that...

Id like to hear Dogs, Fearless(Id say High Hopes, but I doubt it with Roger Back), Saucerfull Of Secrets, and Echoes

not going to happen though

yes i have heard high hopes and i enjoy it very much, but i'm paraphrasing. almost anyone will agree that reviving the Floyd, save for a few good songs, was probably not worth tarnishing the Floyd's previous nearly flawless repritoire. (i like your set list)

Hi guys,

Probably they will play at maximum 4 short most popular songs (like: Brick 2, Wish, Confortably, Time or Money)

But lets hope they will try to understand each other, and begin to plan a (maybe) Farewel Tour.

It will be GREAT

Best greetings

Stonebeard could be on to something.  The only sticking points I see are:

a) Roger would only get to Part 3 before their allotted time was up.

b) Nick could insist on playing his song first

Hear we go:

Roger's Contribution:

1) "I'm Sorry I Had to Be an A**hole, thinking that I Owned Pink Floyd and It's Name (Pts 1-5)"

Dave's Contribution:

2) "I'm Sorry I Had to Revive Pink Floyd Only to Make S**tty, Half-Baked, Neo-pop Without Soul"

Richard's Contribution:

3) "I'm Sorry I did a Bastard-load of Coke and Pissed our Major Songwriter Off, Subsquently Causing Him to Convince the Other Members of the Band to Mutually Fire Me (Reprise)"

Nick's Contribution:

4) "If I Don't get to Play More Intricate and Complicated Drum Parts This Time, I Will Light the F**king Live 8 Stage on Fire"

I'm beginning to like the idea of a covers show more and more...

With time constraints to consider, I'm betting on:

1) Money

2) Another Brick In The Wall (pt. 2 only)

3) Comfortably Numb

 

A few mild surprises would be:

Wish You Were Here

Not Now John

Eclipse

Mother

 

A few big surprises would be:

Bike

Candy And A Currant Bun

Goodbye Cruel World

 

...regardless, I'll be sure to have the DVR set.

I would love just to see them perform Shine On in its entirety: that is, including Dick Perry's sax solo, and Rick Wright's keyboard bit at the end.  Maybe they could do Astronomy Domine in between parts 5 and 6.

However, I don't think that they will end up doing this.  Another Brick pt2 is almost garranteed, but if they do pt1 and Happiest Days too, I would be happy.  If they add an organ solo like in the version from Is There Anybody Out There? I would be very happy!

Money is another I would bet money on .   

Sorry.

Comfortably Numb is one of my favorites anyhow, so if they play this one, I would be pleased.

I read the news today in netscape.com that  PinK Floyd with Waters is going to play in Live 8. I couldn`t believe it. I don`t know if they are going to have backing musicians too.

I think that they are going to play: Money and Comfortably Numb.

But it could be possible that they are going to play an "acoustic set", with Waters and Gilmour on acoustic guitars, Wright on piano and Mason on bongos. The songs: Wish You Were Here, Seamus (with Syd Barrett`s or Nick Mason`s dogs "singing" backing barks) and San Tropez. In "Live Aid", Bod Dylan played a very  informal "Acoustic Jam" with Keith Richards and Ron Wood. In this kind of concerts, anything musically disappointing can happen.

But it is good that they can forget their problems from the past to play together for charity reasons.

False hope:

  • One Of These Days
  • Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun
  • Astronomy Domine
  • Shine On You Crazy Diamond
  • Cirrus Minor
  • Echoes

But yeah, they'll play the hits instead.

^

I'm hoping for Dogs too... but highly doubt they'll play it.  Personally I would be just happy seeing Comfortably Numb done again with Roger doing the verses and Dave the chorus... just like old times...  and maybe Roger will remember what its like playing with a real guitarist...

THIS IS ELP

I've heard they're only playing covers.
