I really enjoyed so much Pink Floyd's reunion show. It was really exciting watching those guys playing together once again. And since I'm only 28, this was the first opportunity for me to watch them all together playing live. I wish they felt so good that they can't help thinking about recording another album... However, although Waters seemed very excited and I guess Gilmour was too, since we could see him smiling to Mason... I think Waters and Gilmour didn't smile to or even looked at each other not even once. Waters was trying to share his happiness with Gilmour, but Gilmour seemed to ignore him all over the show. Even the final hang seemed quite forced...

What do you think about it? Did you feel the same while watching the show?

I already posted this link, but just in case, here you can download the entire Pink Floyd Live 8 show. Take a careful look at it again (without the excitement of the first watch...) and tell me whether I am right or not....

I think that scene was alright in my opinion though.... They don't have to smile at each-other or look at each-other like they were falling in love? 

They were just doing their job, that's all.

Gilmour has always looked like this when he has performed, he is always very focused...

That's true!

They've never looked to each other.

Gilmour looked like he could cheerfully stick his guitar in Waters head....but who cares they were brilliant.

I dont think how they performed is gonna decide if they stay together or not, I doubt even the 3 of them will want to stay for another album regardless of Waters being with them or not, but if they do another album, who knows what it would be about.

Waters has already talked about everything wrong with life in all his albums and i doubt he has anything new to write lyrics about. and Gilmour probably wont want to do anymore gigs, atleast that's what he said in an interview, he thinks he's to old for them and he was tired of them.

               Hey Fellas!!!!!  Don't sweat it......
         Just go to www.WinMX.com and download the latest version if you don't have it already and get it there!!! No problem... There are several versions whole and in pieces. Plus other performances as well from Live8 all free. Winmx is file share and has been a killer source for HTF ultra rare video.       They even have VDGG Footage and a tv special or two.

Yeah, Gilmour's pretty stony-faced.  Even during Hey Jude at the end of the concert he wasn't smiling.  But I thought that Waters looked like he was having fun, and since he's the bitter one, that's what matters.

Gilmour may look like a teddybear, but he isn't. He's just aloof & reserved & sometimes a bit sarcastic I guess. He's not the guy who would  a lot, right?

Waters is more direct and and openly either hostile or friendly, I think.

Well, obviously it's all guesswork  .

Right! If Gilmour didn't want be there, he would not be.
