Pink Floyd

It's the passing of time, but I can't help but feel such a melancholy for the past.

Listening to Dark Side for the first time. Seeing the band play in stadiums - such exciting times.

We are still lucky to have Dave and Rog - as I know 'em - but it feels like history already.

I guess we're all going to feel this way about U2 sooner or later.

Yeh sorry hadn't forgotten about Nick I was just thinking of the main 2 guys who could still write another amazing PF album together - but as we Floyd fans know, this will never happen

I must say except for his first album in 1978 I don't really like David's solo albums. Roger has some good stuff on his last album - but it's just repeating old Floyds sounds (not complaining though ). I thought you mean members who are still touring (looks like Dave is already finished - I wish I could see him with Rick on 2006-7 tour with Echoes )

I think the 'magic' happens when they are all in the studio and that's where 'Dave and Rog' could conjure up some amazing tunes - well, when Nick is stopping them from killing each other having contrasting musical directions

A Floyd tour could easily happen.

They would sell out stadiums/arenas in seconds and all fans would be happy to hear the classic tunes mixed with a new album.

It could be one last tour where they could relive their masterpieces and go back in time (no pun intended) to when they were giants.

But it won't happen - there's more chance of ABBA or Kate Bush touring or even ABBA touring with Kate Bush as support!

Can we start one of those petitions where they will HAVE to discuss it in parliament in the UK after receiving 100,000 signatures? Because that would happen
