The ongoing feud between David Gilmour and Roger Waters, two prominent members of the famous British rock band Pink Floyd, dates back to many years. Tensions surfaced publicly in 1985 when Roger departed from the band, resulting in a legal battle over the use of its name. As time went on, various other factors strained their relationship.
Nonetheless, they put their differences aside and came together for a performance at Pink Floyd's reunion concert in 2005. Initially, their disputes stemmed from musical differences, but over time, global politics began to play a significant role. Their differing opinions on various political matters have increasingly complicated their relationship in recent years, with David criticising Roger's political views and remarks regarding Israel, Ukraine, and the United States.
David has now clearly stated that he will not collaborate with Roger again and has no intention of performing on the same stage with him in the future. In a recent interview with The Guardian, he was asked whether he would ever share the stage with Roger again. He responded directly, saying, "Absolutely not.
" David explained his stance by stating, "I tend to steer clear of people who actively support genocidal and autocratic dictators like (president of Russia Vladimir) Putin and (president of Venezuela Nicolás) Maduro. Nothing would make me share a stage with someone who thinks such treatment of women and the LGBT community is OK." "On the other hand, I'd love to be back.
