Yes, a one-time big-time reunion is on the way between former feuding Pink Floyd front men Roger Waters and David Gilmour, but the date hasn’t been set yet, or maybe it has but they won’t spill it out just yet.

It all began after the two rock icons performed together at a HOPING foundation charity event in Oxfordshire, England last weekend where they performed “To Know Him is to Love Him” by Teddy Bears and three of their greatest hits – “Another Brick in the Wall (part 2)”, “Wish You were Here” and “Comfortably Numb”.

Actually, it began a year before that, but it was their performance of the Teddy bears hit that cemented the deal that Gilmour would guest in one of Waters’ 94 shows for his “The Wall” tour this year.  Through an email discourse spanning from last year up until recently, which Waters somewhat narrated through his Facebook page, the live collaboration of “To Know Him is to Love Him” was Gilmour’s idea which Waters’ declined upon the former’s first invitation.

According to Waters, he declined Gilmour’s offer because the Teddy Bears hit was out of his vocal range while it was a stroll in the park for Gilmour with the bassist’s “superior vocal skills”.  Then Gilmour came up with a better offer: if Waters does “To Know Him is to Love Him” at the HOPING benefit, then he’ll be doing “Comfortably Numb”, or as Gilmour had put it, “C. Numb”, in one of Waters’ shows on the road. And so it was a deal.  And with the HOPING benefit now over and Waters’ doing his end of the bargain, it is now a done deal as long as Gilmour keeps his promise.

This now completely contradicts Gilmour’s complete lack of interest in Waters’ tour (as reported by Rolling Stone) and possibly, remnants of any ill-feelings towards the former band mate as what has been known by many in the years following the band’s separation.  In fact, Pink Floyd fans are possibly hopeful that a true reconciliation between these two rock giants may be on the way after Waters capped his post with “End of Story. Or possibly beginning”.  It could go both ways you know, a beginning of another tumultuous relationship or maybe, a harmonious one this time around.

Roger Waters’ “The Wall”  tour will kick off on September 15 in Toronto and will run through summer of next year.

David Gilmour and Roger Waters, the two main forces that drove Pink Floyd, reunited onstage for the very first time in almost five years over the weekend at an English benefit event.  The team-up was unannounced and occurred in front of 200 attendees in Oxfordshire at a benefit for Hoping Foundation that was raising money to benefit young Palestinian refugees.

The four song set from the duo included “To Know Him Is To Love Him” from Phil Spector, a sound check staple for Pink Floyd according to Gilmour’s blog, as well as band classics “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2,” “Comfortably Numb,” and “Wish You Were Here.”

The set on Saturday night was the very first time that Gilmour and Waters had performed together on the same stage since the reunion performance by Pink Floyd at Live 8 in 2005 in London.  The Hoping Foundation performance from the duo helped to raise 350,000 pounds.  Waters played acoustic guitar instead of bass.  Waters and Gilmour were joined by Jonjo Grisdale and Harry Waters, keyboardists, Andy Newmark, drummer, Chester Kamen, guitarist, and Guy Pratt, bassist.  Ironically it was Guy Pratt who replaced Walter during Pink Floyd’s Division Bell, Gilmour-led era.

As was previously reported by Rolling Stone, Gilmour had been asked by Waters to join Water’s “The Wall” 30th anniversary tour this year.  However his former band mate had declined.  In May Waters said, David is not interested at all.  I could  probably have been interested in doing more but he isn’t interested.

When Richard Wright, keyboardist, died in 2008 hopes for a Pink Floyd official reunion tour were practically extinguished.  At the time Gilmour declared, Richard Wright can’t be replaced by anyone.

The Wall tour, even without Gilmour, is one of this summer’s few outings to have been able to stave off concert industry struggles.  Artists including the Jonas Brothers and Rihanna and tours such as American Idols Live and Lilith Fair have had to cancel dates, while the 30th anniversary tour for The Wall has caused Waters to double or triple or even quadruple the dates he is performing for certain markets.
