Wonderful! A fine guitarist~ Bravo, David!

There's no way out of here,
Once you come in, you're in for good
There was no promise made, the part you played,
The chance
You took

In an interview within the last year I think David said it's very unlikely the band will tour again. That's a shame b/c the last Division Bell tour was oustanding. They could just tour and sell out and not even release an album.

While I agree that medals are given out too freely by the Queen these days, this is NOT one of those cases! David Gilmour is in a class by himself, both as a guitarist, and as a musician/vocalist in general(also as a man). His solo at the end of Comfortably Numb is awesome beyond words. He just buries those thousand-note-a-second boys with his playing. He's peerless!

Queen Elizabeth listens to unlistenable, pretentious 1970s art rock? Hmmm...

I guess we'll find out if John Anderson or Rick Wakeman ever get medals.

There's also Officer (OBE), the one Jools Holland got, which is in between MBE and CBE.
