ROGER WATERS On A PINK FLOYD Reunion: ‘It Would Be F**king Awful’

Roger Waters

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Roger Waters says there’s no way he would consider a PINK FLOYD reunion if it were ever put on the table.

When interviewer said that it might be nice to see old friends across the music world in general setting aside their differences and reuniting in the wake of the coronavirus crisis, Waters replied:  “No, it wouldn’t be nice. It would be f*cking awful.

“Obviously if you’re a fan of those days of PINK FLOYD, well then you have a different point of view. But I had to live through it. That was my life.

He added: “I know in the wake of it I’ve been cast as something of a villain by whoever… so be it! I can live with that. But would I trade my liberty for those chains? No f*cking way.”

Waters also said he approached David Gilmour and Nick Mason with a “peace plan” but it wasn’t for a reunion.

“It was nothing to do with that. This was just, ‘Can we release a remastered vinyl version of [1977’s] Animals without it turning into the third world war. Wouldn’t that be nice?’

He continued: “I actually suggested going democratic. I said,  ‘Why don’t we just have a vote? There’s only three of us and then we can decide all those things like that and at least we can just get on.’ But they wouldn’t have that. God knows why.”
