In the newspaper today I read that Pink Floyd are going to
re-form for a special charity event in aid of the 'Make poverty history' campaign. ------------- There's Winston Churchill dressed in drag, he used to be a British flag, plastic bag, what a drag. |
what did we do to deserve this? However it
should be an amazing concert and I hope I can get tickets!Replies:

Apparently they're not going to be on the bill, so it's ok. Their sort of "Plastic Pop Music" - The Mirror (nice one...not such a rubbish paper after all?) isn't what the organisers are after. -------------

...On Tuesday, Geldof unveiled a Live Aid sequel, dubbed Live 8, that aims to be bigger than the original and will feature a who's-who of the top music acts in the world, including http://www.eonline.com/Facts/People/Bio/0,128,10387,00.html - Paul McCartney , http://www.eonline.com/Facts/People/Bio/0,128,15928,00.html - U2 , the http://www.eonline.com/Facts/People/Bio/0,128,30541,00.html - Rolling Stones , http://www.eonline.com/Facts/People/Bio/0,128,1,00.html - Madonna and a reunited http://www.eonline.com/Facts/People/0,12,12528,00.html - Pink Floyd , participating in a series of mega-concerts.... may 31... http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,16658,00.html?tnews - http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,16658,00.html?tnews

PINK FLOYD NOT AT "LIVE 8" CONCERT We have had loads of emails from people worldwide (thanks to you all!) regarding the rumours of Pink Floyd reforming (WITH Roger Waters, too) to appear at the "Live 8" concert that speculation says will be happening at the start of July. We have heard back from the band's PR company, who categorically state that they are not appearing, and we also spoke with Pink Floyd's management (PFM) today, who confirmed that all the talk of the band reforming is simply rumour - there are no discussions between the band members past and present ongoing, and no intention to open discussions. Obviously if things change, we'll let you know. Bear in mind, though, that "Live 8" has not yet been officially confirmed as an event that will happen... Bob Geldof, who organised the original Live Aid show, recently denied that any show would take place, however, he is expected to officially announce the show and full details on Tuesday 31st May. Sting has already admitted he is committed to the concert, having been told by Geldof that he would be appearing! There are also rumours that the band will be appearing at this year's Glastonbury Festival. Again, no truth in this at all. http://www.brain-damage.co.uk/news/0505262.html - http://www.brain-damage.co.uk/news/0505262.html |

Maybe they will play, but I don't believe they will perform with Roger Waters... although in a second thought it might be an interesting show, more in an Alice Cooper vein, with people being violently slaughtered on stage... Who will get who first is the most secret part of the show, though... |

If this is true then it means that Roger Waters is a stingy b  d for not doing a charity event!
