Pink Floyd reform for Live 8 show
Rock band Pink Floyd's classic line-up will be reunited on stage for the first
time in 24 years at next month's Live 8 concert in London.
Roger Waters will join band members Dave Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright
for the show in Hyde Park.
Waters last performed on stage with them at London's Earls Court in 1981.
The Live 8 concert, organised by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to help fight African
poverty, is one of five taking place around the world on 2 July.
Pink Floyd join a star-studded line-up at Hyde Park which includes Madonna,
REM, U2, Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Elton John, Coldplay and Robbie Williams.
"Like most people I want to do everything I can to persuade the G8 leaders to
make huge commitments to the relief of poverty and increased aid to the third
world," said Pink Floyd's Dave Gilmour.
"Any squabbles Roger and the band have had in the past are so petty in this
context, and if reforming for this concert will help focus attention then it's
got to be worthwhile," he added.
Legendary
Pink Floyd are viewed as being one of the biggest rock bands of all time.
The group released their first record in 1967, with founding member Syd Barrett
on lead guitar, alongside Waters, Mason and Wright.
At the beginning of 1968, guitarist Dave Gilmour - a friend of the band - was
brought in as a fifth member. Barrett left the group shortly afterwards.
The remaining four members achieved legendary status with albums such as 1973's
The Dark Side Of The Moon, which stayed in the US album chart for more than a
decade
Fans have long yearned for a reunion of the classic Pink Floyd line-up of
Waters, Gilmour, Mason and Wright, but it seemed unlikely because of a
fall-out between founder member Waters and the rest of the group in the
mid-1980s.
Gilmour, Mason and Wright continued to record and tour as Pink Floyd during the
remainder of the 80s and into the 90s, releasing their last studio album - The
Division Bell - in 1994.

天啊,昨天知道这消息时,当场大叫

有时候都好气自己生这麽晚干嘛
但是现没钱又没闲,不然好想冲
不知有没有人会去啊
祝 好
