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...

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

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

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)

I happen to know about 300 or more people on a few PF fan sites that would totally disagree with you.. and I'm one of them. I personally think TDB is Floyds 3rd best album... and that guitar beginning to 'Coming Back to Life' is one of the most beautiful moments in music history.

And the 'without soul' statement is about as lame as they come. Dave has never played anything in his life.. without soul... give me a break!

THIS IS ELP

what about "seamus"? or "the narrow way" (like 'em both, but devoid of much "soul") they have their moments, but overall, they cannot compare, as is the case with "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" which is my main concern. To be honest I haven't heard "Division Bell," and i am not railing against that album. If MLOR you love, then that's for you and that's cool.

It will probably go like this...

01. "Wish You Were Here"
02. "Another Brick in the Wall Part 2"
03. "Money"
04. "Comfortably Numb"

Although I'd loved to be proven wrong. I'm really really hoping they'll do some Animals... Roger has never performed "Sheep" solo, and the band rehearsed it for the AMLOR Tour before dropping it last minute... and it's the shortest of the three main songs... so I hope they'll seriously consider it.

Division Bell/Momentary Lapse of Reason may not be played at all with Roger's presence they could but very unlikely.

Songs from DSOTM and WYWH and TW are very likely to be played.

dogs and pigs, the long versions of almost 20 minutes. Or Atom heart mother. But I would be very happy when they don't bash each-others heads in, and planning a new tour would be great

I'd like to se some stuff from AMLOR and Division Bell performed with Waters. Also it'll be interesting to see if they do any Final Cut songs live for the first time.

The last two "Pink Floyd" albums are absolutely atrocious, period.

To tell you all the truth, I don't think it is important what they will play, it's important That they play. (hope they don't get in to another fight )

For me it's the first chance I have to see them the way they are supposed to be, live with Roger Waters, I've only seen the division Bell concert in Rotterdam. And I'm diying to see Roger in Action after all those years.

Maybe they will notice that they don't dislike eachother as much as they think, and will start to tour again (I know, wishfull thinking )
