23.6.2005 GELDOF: PINK FLOYD VORLETZTE BAND BEI LIVE 8.
Bob Geldof gab gestern eine Pressekonferenz in Rom. Thema war natürlich das Live 8 Konzert in Rom. Unter den Journalisten waren jedoch auch Mitglieder des italienischen Pink Floyd Fanclubs „Floyd Channel“ (ausgezeichnete Homepage) die Mr. Geldof natürlich nach der Entstehung der Floyd Reunion fragten.
BOB GELDOF INTERVIEW
Q: Bob, how long have you been working on the Pink Floyd reunion?
GELDOF: The project of the reunion has gone on and on with the project of the gigs. I started from a declaration from Nick Mason that I saw on the internet; he was answering a question saying that a Pink Floyd reunion was possible just for a big charity event. The live 8 is for sure this kind of event.
Q: Has been harder to convince Roger, David or their lawyers?
GELDOF: It is usually very difficult to put together again a wife and husband; imagine two men like Roger and David! I am really happy that everything worked out in the end and that they will play at Live 8.
Q: How long will their performance be?
GELDOF: Around 15 minutes and they will play 4 songs, well, if we consider that just one of their songs is usually 15 minutes long…
Q: When are they going to play?
GELDOF: They will be the second last.
Q: Are you going to play at the concert?
GELDOF: It is a lot easier to convince Pink Floyd than myself!
Thanx to [color=darkgreen]Brain Damage
