On July 10th, former Pink Floyd bandmates David Gilmour and Roger Waters performed together for the first time since Live 8 in 2005 at the Hoping Foundation Benefit Evening, held at Kiddington Hall in Oxfordshire, England.
The band consisted of Gilmour, Waters, Guy Pratt (bass and acoustic guitar), Harry Waters (keyboards), Andy Newmark (drums), Chester Kamen (guitar) and Jonjo Grisdale (keyboards). The line-up performed in front of 200 people, raising some £350,000 for the Hoping Foundation (Hope and Optimism for Palestinians In the Next Generation) in the process.
The tracks performed were “To Know Him Is To Love Him”, “Wish You Were Here”, Comfortably Numb” and “Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2).

Hard to believe, really. But there it is. Perhaps these guys have realised with the passing of Syd Barrett and then Rick Wright, that life is too short for petty garbage. Am glad they’re getting along better, but a full-blown Floyd run is unlikely, nay practically impossible, now that the Pink Floyd Sound (Rick) is gone. Still … I would support a reunion and I’m sure a few million others might also!
