"It's crazy that America gives such a paltry percentage of its GNP to the starving nations."

Crazy as that may be, it's still far more than all of the other nations on earth combined. So shine on you crazy diamond!

It's even crazier that people think that they are entitled to other people's money. Wish they had gotten back together for something other than a left wing love fest. Oh well.

crap on a crutch . . . This is a sign that the end is near. All they need is to bring back Syd for one or two songs. I'll be making a b-line to the confessional.

"Gilmour said.

"It's crazy that America gives such a paltry percentage of its GNP to the starving nations."

Tell you what.

*YOU* donate all the $$ you have made from Pink Floyd to the poor and then perhaps I'll listen.

What's that I hear?

Roger Waters doesn't exactly amuse me to death, but his daughter is a looker.

...the original members of the British rock band Pink Floyd would perform at the July event for the first time in more than two decades. Guitarist David Gilmour, drummer Nick Mason, bass player Roger Waters and keyboard player Richard Wright have not performed on stage together since 1981.

No Syd Barrett?

So he's only counting government-issued aid, not the billions given by individual American citizens. "Be careful with that brain, Dave G."

Economic disparity is a phenomenon no effort of mankind is able to eliminate short of ideologies that are worse than the problem. These narcissistic a-holes need to climb off their high horses, sell all they have, give to the poor, and follow Jesus. Then I'll listen to their preaching. Otherwise I'll treat their words like so much hot air.

I think it's crazy that Pink Floyd haven't put a higher percentage of their gross sales to put their money where their mouth is.

Just shut up and sing, ya dang egomaniancs!

One can always work toward the future, and do what ever
we can to make it LESS, MUCH LESS.

...Pink Floyd would perform at the July event...

I'll wait for the live CD, the soundtrack CD and the live DVD - and I'll STILL save huge loot over the concert ticket (and travel, and gas, and parking) price.

I wonder how much of the post-concert sales go towards purchasing food in Africa or fish-n-chips in some British pub...

Gilmour. Shut the hell up and play.

Nothing irks me more than when rich people bitch about not enough tax money being spent for their projects.

Wow! How disappointing to find out such a terrific musician is a scumbag.
