Its a shame.

Now we can completely forget about a reunion tour. But we still have that stunning performance at Live 8 on DVD to watch.

You can not understate the importance of Pink Floyd to popular music and Wrights influence on the band and its sound. Their music will be enjoyed for many decades into the future.

RIP

I believe he wrote Us and Them. So that would be a suitable choice from Dark Side.

He also wrote Great Gig In The Sky, which I am currently listening to.

I wonder if him and Syd are performing a great gig in the sky?

R.I.P. Richard.

I was so hoping for a reunion.

When I was over in London to see the Zeppelin Concert, there was a flying a pig over the battersea power plant in London, the next day.

I was thinking one thing, Pink Floyd was not going to be outdone by Led Zeppelin, and they were going to do their own reunion concert, and this was Pink Floyd way of making a statement.

Later I found out it was a publicity stunt for the new Homer Simpsons movie, and the pig was spiderpig.

It depressing to see all the rock stars of my youth departing this world.

Before I go, the only one that will be left will be Keith Richards :)

Long live Keef!

I forgot you were the lucky one who saw Zeppelin last year.

I am still waiting on the official DVD .... the ball is in your court Mr. Page .. I have $40 with your name on it ;-) .
