Yes, it would take an effort on their part to prepare. I was thinking back to live 8. When it was announced that they were all going to do a set. it caused a world wide buzz. Sure your always going to have people who react with, "Ah f*&k the buggers", who were disappointed amd became jaded when they split. I remember alot of people who felt the same way when the Beatles split. "I'll go see um when hell freezes over" they would reply when asked. What if they reunite?
I believe in magic, I still hold on to the hope, that they not just simply appear together, but collaborate on a new album and tour. Hopeless I know, but that's how I feel. I felt the same way about the Beatles until John was murdered.

I thought he said "it seemed apposite" meaning suitable, but it's not really clear.grelch wrote:I was thinking about this, it seemed 'mystery word'.J Ed wrote:has footage emerged yet of Flickering Flame?
did Roger say anything before he played?
seems like an odd choice of song
EDIT: hereit is, or at least part of it
he says "....agreeing with me
Jon Carins gonna help me
this isnt one of Syds songs its one of my songs
I was thinking about this, mumble munble mumble..."
can anybody make sense of those mumbles?
We'll try to struggle through it.

You're right...qjamesfloyd wrote:I think the most important point is, that they were all there to pay respect to there old friend, the fact they all played together or not, is not really important.this was not about Pink Floyd, it was about Syd!!

I managed to get a ticket in the front row of this gig. I will try and add some extra news to the ones which have already been discussed. When Roger came on he had a couple of heckles from one or two "Syd" fans. Someone else rebuked with a comment like, "Shut up, some of us want to hear him play".
Someone also shouted, "Where are Pink Floyd" as Roger was preparing to play. He replied, "Later". So he obviously was aware that the other 3 would play a set later on and that he would not be joining them. Roger has made is know that he would like to play with the others again and so I can only conclude that it was David's decision not to play as a four piece - perhaps he wanted to show that the post 1985 PF group is valid or more probably he wanted to keep the show focused on Syd and not a full PF re-union.
Interestingly, although Joe Boyd announced the final act as Pink Floyd, they were billed as David, Nick and Rick - more evidence that the show was not to be remembered as a PF re-union.

Maybe they didn't want this event to be remembered as a pink Floyd reunion but a syd tribute show...london1 wrote:Interestingly, although Joe Boyd announced the final act as Pink Floyd, they were billed as David, Nick and Rick - more evidence that the show was not to be remembered as a PF re-union.

It must have been great hearing some of those great songs again, did anyone who was there notice if there were any cameras? for a DVD release, i can't think that such a unique event would not be filmed.
Interesting to see Damon Albarn there, i thought his former band mate Graham Coxon was more of a Syd fan, why was he not invited?.
