    Maybe its on the way :) Awesome news isn't it! and so many floyd surprises on the way! check out here:

    "Also in the interview Roger has again confirmed that he will be releasing the ORIGINAL Wall (80/81) "at some point". (In what format was not stated). " (www.pinkfloydz.com)

    Full Article:

    "David Gilmour Will Appear At USA Wall Show Dashing the hopes of multitudes of European fans, (but delighting multitudes of others in the USA) Roger Waters has revealed in an interview with 'Classic Rock Presents: Prog' that it will be one of shows in the USA where David Gilmour will guest playing Comfortably Numb. Also in the interview Roger has again confirmed that he will be releasing the ORIGINAL Wall (80/81) "at some point". (In what format was not stated). He went on to say "And then we'll have to see after that, (Europe) whether we take it (the tour) to South America or some of the other places that I'd really like to play". Asked about having difficulty singing some of the songs he said: "I've had to drop a couple of them a tone - when you get older you can't reach the high notes any more. I think Don't Leave Me Now and One of My Turns we've had to drop a tone. And maybe we'll have to drop Run Like Hell". Commenting on the possibility of a new album he said "Well I've got so many songs written, I keep meaning to get round to organising it. I never seem to get round to it though. It has been a while." (Many thanks to Natalie for assistance)"

    Hi there.

    Some film was taken but used for the movie with Bob geldof instead (and how very poor the movie was - I was at Earls Court for the show and it is the greatest concert I have ever seen. Period).

    So there really wasn't enough to make a concert DVD.

    What would be great is if they were to do it again - not likely! - or, considering the lousy "musicals" re Queen, Rod Stewart, Abba, frankie Valli and so on, perhaps they should license the show to be reproduced EXACTLY for the london stage.

    Cheers, Steve.

    Infighting. Period. Like so many of the best bands in history, Pink Floyd were/are comprised of bitter, broken, and clashing geniuses. They hate each other, they love each other, and they'll never manage to see eye to eye again.
