I agree....Hope u got to enjoy them on their last tour "Divison Bell"...I was always hoping they would patch things up with Waters and make one more mega tour. Hell they could of done it even w/out Waters...But yea I would love to see them one more time. RIP. September 15th was the release of Wish You Were Here in the UK. I hope Roger comes out and says the right things even through their tiffs.... So true....Although they were all on stage together during that Live Aid Reunion thing last summer...It was short but sweet (had hoped that would of been the start of a reunion but not to be) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 A sad day for me as Pink is my favorite band. Shine on you Richard! Shine your own Richard. Indeed a shame. I always thought it was his keyboards that gave Floyd their distinctive sound. Gilmour is great, Waters lyrics are great, but it was those haunting keys that set them apart. They were subtle, subdued, not loud & overbearing like, say Rick Wakeman or Keith Emerson. Just enough to paint the scene. RIP ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan since a Fetus Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 This is weird because I actually thought he died about two months ago. Maybe I can see into the future. Who knows? I love Pink Floyd, one of my favorite bands. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
