The One Band that really needs to run a Re-Union Tour...
Pink Floyd
...
They are all still alive (save Syd, but Syd wasn't in the band since the 'Saucer Full of Secrets' Days) and can still perform a live program. Now, I love Led Zeppelin... but, Bonzo is gone and Jimmy can't play anymore. But Floyd is still around... just currently dismantled. They are capable of selling out Stadiums... bonafide Stadiums like the Rose Bowl. They don't even have to come up with new material... just do alternate shows... 'Dark Side of the Moon/Wish You Were Here'... 'Animals' (plus hits and others)... 'The Wall'. Book a week at Wembley, Giants Stadium, The Rose Bowl, then disappear. One tour... one last tour. They could make a ton of cash and we'd... well... I'd be happy.

    Would love to see Floyd like some ppl got to see at Live 8 in whichever Euro country they were in; I think London?

    I've seen The Machine and the Australian cover band that performs the lightshow....can never get enough Floyd in my life.

    I'd pay whatever it costs to see this.

    Funny though, I thought the Australian Pink Floyd Show was better than Roger Waters musically.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    Would kill to see pink floyd re union show!!! On a english rock radio station planet rock mark jeeves has rumoured a one off zepellin show to happen by the end of the year, The Who are still doing it and they are possibly at their best right now so pink floyd would still be clearly amazing as roger waters and dave gilmour are still touring and writing.
