Pink Floyd Will Be Touring!!!!!

Well not really but I have wonderful news to report from the Pink Floyd camp. Nick Mason appeared in a recent interview with NME.com and went on to give some very shocking but yet incredible news. If you do not know Nick Mason is the drummer of Floyd and this year he has already played with David Gilmour and will soon be playing with Roger Waters. Mason said that Floyd would return in the FULL lineup as long as he can set aside differences between both Gilmour and Waters. A quote from the interview was "I'd love for it to happen again and I really do think Pink Floyd will play together again - but it would have to be for love, not money." He also claimed that he was "The Henry Kissinger of Pink Floyd."

No matter how exciting the news is I refuse to get my hopes up but in the back of my head I figure if Bob Geldoff can do it, why can't Nick Mason? Regardless, I honestly don't think that Pink Floyd will come together and I think the one who would be less willing to bring the group back together would be Gilmour. Surprisingly I feel that Waters would be more up for one more tour but Gilmour would be more reluctant. Gilmour has noted many times that he no longer wants a big tour and has no desire to bring Floyd back together. He seems to really be enjoying his solo efforts and tour and with the success of his solo album there really is no reason for him to get back together with Floyd. During the Live 8 show I was rather surprised to see the ear to ear smiles on Rogers face, which really gave me hope but with all the interviews with Gilmour denying that Floyd will EVER get back together I am fairly convinced that any chance of seeing Floyd again is gone. If Mason is able to get Floyd back together I hope that Kidney's are going for a high price because there is going to have to be somehow to afford those tickets which are surely going to be high, not to mention I want front row! So Nick if you are able to bring back Floyd for just one more tour you will now move from my second favorite member of Floyd to number one!
