I didn't see a thread on it, so...... you know. I wish they were reuniting on account that they are radical rockers and not the account that third world countries need relief/help.

That's an awesome reason to reunite.
They're not making any MONEY.

I'm not saying it's a bad reason to hold a benefit concert, I just believe it would be a better reason for PF to reunite on a basis of their own reconciliations and to create more good music. It'd be much more genuine IMHO.

I disagree. They broke up because of Egos running wild among them, and not being able to get along.
Only something this selfless could get them to truly come together.

Pink Floyd are only playing in London, the only way to get a ticket is to send a text message to a competition, which ends tonight at midnight.

I'm telling you, they are going to prosecute anyone who puts tix on eBay.
They already prosecute people just for selling recordings of the original Live Aid.

Oregon, no offense, but that was just lame.
When scalpers sell tickets, no one in poor countries gets the money.
People make money off of the event, for themselves.

OMR3021-No offense taken. From what I understand they'd be scalping free(to the scalpers) tickets, so the benefit money had to have been put up up front. The scalpers wouldn't be taking a cent from the poor African countries.
