backbacon Posted June 27, 2002 Report Share Posted June 27, 2002 LONDON - Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason made a surprise guest appearance on stage at his former colleague Roger Waters' Wembley Arena show in London Wednesday night. Mason played on Waters' version of the early Floyd composition ''Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun.'' The reunion marked Waters' first collaboration with any of his former bandmates since his acrimonious departure from Pink Floyd in 1983, and was greeted with standing ovations from the Wembley audience both before and after the song. Billboard.com understands that Waters and Mason, who have remained on good terms despite the ill feeling caused by the band's subsequent use of the Pink Floyd name, met again by chance last December on the Caribbean island of Mustique. Two weeks ago, Waters telephoned Mason to invite him to guest at the show. --------------- hmmmm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhishyK Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 Sweet, what I wouldn't give to see Gilmour and Waters together again. Pink Floyd has got to be the coolest jam band that ever existed. Their music is so genuinely dark but uplifting at the same time. And what made it sweet was Waters' genius songs with Gilmour's genius guitar playing. Nick Mason was cool too, what a wierd drumming style he had. Kinda like a drunk Ringo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 Waters and Gilmour will never play together again. They hate each other. Pink Floyd without Waters is not Pink Floyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
