June 17, 200520 yr It has been confirmed that Roger Waters will join Pink Floyd to perform at the Live8 concert in Hyde Park on 2nd July. David Gilmour made the following statement: “Like most people I want to do everything I can to persuade the G8 leaders to make huge commitments to the relief of poverty and increased aid to the third world. It’s crazy that America gives such a paltry percentage of its GNP to the starving nations. Any squabbles Roger and the band have had in the past are so petty in this context, and if re-forming for this concert will help focus attention then it’s got to be worthwhile.” OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG I'm like a f***ing schoolgirl!!!!!!!!!!

June 17, 200520 yr Aww, that's so cute. The pandering towards U2 has made all European rock bands think they're important. Adorable. Can't wait for the new Scorpions tour!

June 17, 200520 yr I could personally care less, but I know there are alot of people that really think this is kick ass stuff. Why the hell can't people respect that? Sometimes, I don't get people. /rant over
June 17, 200520 yr People should be able to say whatever they want. To get mad at people for not liking your band is a little harsh. It's a public forum. People voiced their opinion. There will be good and bad in every thread otherwise it wouldn't be worth discussing. If you didn't want a certain type of discussion you shouldn't have posted the thread.

But kap I don't think people were trashing the band and personally I could care less if people do because that's their opinion and opinions are cool.... but to come in a thread and start hijacking it by talking about random garbage? Well, that's not cool. Like I said, the post I flipped out about got deleted and it's all cool now. Then some guy on a mighty horse had to come in here and start s*** up again. :headshake
June 17, 200520 yr Yahtzee I have a quetion. When was the last time Pink Floyd played together as a group?

When was the last time Pink Floyd played together as a group? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> DBAH0 you just brought out the Pink Floyd nerd in me. Anyways "Pink Floyd" played in 1994. This is the Pink Floyd with 3 of the 4 band members, not including Roger Waters who, above, just agreed to perform with them. Now, with Roger... I think it was about 1981 or so. After The Wall things pretty much turned sour and he left the band. For the past 20 years they've been in all sorts of lawsuits and stuff involving lawyers and sniping but now it seems they've set aside their differences for a good cause. This is Pink Floyd, not for money, but for a good cause. Roger's a bit of an asshole but I respect him a lot more for this.
June 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(YahtzeeSox @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 11:01 PM) Floyd > U2 U2 > Floyd. I hate them both anyway.
June 17, 200520 yr For the record, I wasn't spamming the thread. I meant that I'm tired of pop stars thinking that I care about their politics. I was responding to the quote in the original post, I think that's fair game. And I'd take U2 over PF, but that's neither here nor there.
