Pink Floyd and their reuniting for Live 8

More than a decade after ‘The Division Bell’ was released, and the Pink Floyd lawsuit had subsided, and the band was totally disbanded, Bob Geldolf wanted Pink Floyd to reunite, as the climax of his 2005 Live 8 event.  This was something that many others tried before him, but only he managed to!  Reuniting the four original members of Pink Floyd again, would surely cease the music scene and attract media’s attention.

Up till Live 8, many Pink Floyd followers felt that Pink Floyd, especially David and Roger never said good bye properly, but it was about time to do it.  As David Guilmor said ‘it was also very good to get back on to speaking terms after all the bickering with roger over the years, and us to maybe grow up a little bit, and become adult human beings, with a reasonable relationship”.  So finally, as seen in this video one can see that they loved it, and finally everyone can say that Pink Floyd properly said bye and did a good job at playing a farewell 20 minutes concert.  This video is about what Pink Floyd thought of the reuniting, the live act, and the magic they left behind them!

“There was nothing more symbolic or that potent on that night that these 4 old geezers playing so beautifully lay their own ghosts to rest, and the thing is it worked!” – Sir Bob Geldof
