Pink Floyd guitarist blocking reunion

If you want to blame someone for keeping a Pink Floyd reunion from happening, Nick Mason says David Gilmour is the guilty party. According to the fan-run Pink Floyd website brain-damage.co.uk, the drummer said the positions are now reversed and "David is as Roger (Waters) was, 20 years before," meaning Gilmour won't have anything to do with Waters. To be fair, the drummer also pointed out that Gilmour is still working to promote his On An Island record.

After last summer's reunion at the Live 8 show in London, which was the first time the members of Pink Floyd had all played together since 1981, Waters and Mason said they'd like to do more, even if it was just for causes like Live 8. But Gilmour quickly shot down the idea, and he reportedly declined an offer for a US tour that was said to be worth $200 million.

Waters and Mason will perform the 1973 Floyd album The Dark Side If The Moon on July 14th at the Magna-Cours racetrack in Nevers, France, to celebrate 100 years of Grand Prix motor racing. They've invited keyboardist Richard Wright along, and while Mason said last week that Wright had accepted the offer, that hasn't been confirmed. Wright toured this year in Gilmour's band.
