Wasn’t there quadrophonic sound with the band swirling it around?

Definitely remember reading it at the time, and think they set up extra delay towers just for that set? Will have to google it.

Free on the Sunday and in the UK (although  would mean a number of gigs in a row).

Thoughts? Cheeky Pink Floyd reunion for the 50th is certainly a surprise 

Have I missed something? Can't find any info on this.

Enjoyed what I saw of him in 2002 (think that was the year). I'm sure they put in a special PA or something for his show that year? (Probably am wrong).

He had extra speakers setup in the pyramid field so the whole thing was in surround sound! Listening the the planes fly over your head from The Wall is something i will never forget. To this day the best live set I have seen anyone do. I've also seen his Dark side of the moon tour twice and The Wall tour he did about 6 years ago but the Glasto one tops it!

Really can't see a PF reunion after reading this recent Rolling Stone interview.   It would be great to see him perform Us + Them though

[Havors]

PLEEEEEEEASE!!!! I think there is more chance of Prince playing like but It would be amazing!!! Not seen him live since 2009 and the dark side tour he did.

Dick move from Gilmour in fairness. 

This has been Pink Floyd since the mid 80s unfortunately. An utter abomination.

Jaysus! That was tough to watch!  I thought it was The Running Man at first

Agreed. Why on earth he wont do a few shows on a small tour is beyond me.... it would make a fucking fortune for climate change if he wanted. Roger must have really fucked him right off back in the day.... 

What is weird is he has done the odd appearance with Waters.... he play comfortably numb at one of his Wall shows a couple years back... 

FFS sort your shit out Dave!

That sounds great.

....and forgot the words.  I was there.  His appearance was epic and disappointing in equal measures.

He hasn't aged well over the last couple of years. I wish he would just bite the frigging bullet and do some massive charity gigs as Pink Floyd before he pops it and there is only Roger and Nick left.

Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets finish a uk and European tour in early June, could this be a possibility for Glastonbury?

Got to be a strong possibility.....but where?  Avalon?  Acoustic headliners?

Sorry but that's total bull.

I was there too. 

He did forget the words.

But epic and disappointing in EQUAL measures? Get a grip. It was 100% epic. You clearly weren't even there.

Wow...thats touched a nerve eh?  I was there...with my wife and a friend...and even had a chat with a certain Mr Nick Mason and wife Netty who I have occasional contact with through vintage motorsport....perhaps you'd like me to ask him to vouch for my presence? 

To the case in point though...David's appearance was certainly epic, even though Polly had pretty much tweeted the cat out of the bag earlier in the day, but his voice was not as strong as it could have been, and to forget the words to perhaps the greatest Floyd song of all time was to be honest a little disappointing...oh hang on...I think that's what I said earlier. 

Carry on.

Oh so you have changed your opinion. from "equal measures epic and disappointing" to "a little disappointing". Thank you for changing your mind and validating the point I challenged you on.

Please carry on with your erratically hyperbolic life, it sounds both thrilling and utterly dull in equal measures.

[GlastoEls]

Gilmour was brilliant on the Rattle That Lock tour...

Do you need to get your meds reassessed? 

[BlackZeppelin]

The fated Glastonbury Floyd reunion?

I'm a believer.

It just needs Dave to shrug and let it happen.

Nothing, literally nothing, would make our group happier than this.

The recent Pink Floyd podcast The Lost Art of Conversation is well worth a listen. It ends with a very real suggestion that there is more to come from the band. I'm not convinced, but it's definitely a possibility.

Gilmour would have to buy some new guitars though...

Assume it'll be re-releases and "previously unheard" imbecility from the utterly appalling post Waters period. Tunes that Gilmour got his missus to write for him.

More aural AIDS like this.

Hearing AIDS?

I'll get my coat...

One of my favourite Waters shows.  Van Morrison really lifts the vocals and Snowy White on a high platform handles the guitar.
