Roger Waters Reunites With David Gilmour for 'Wall' Tour

After years of discord, Pink Floyds Roger Waters and David Gilmour are apparently on the road Rosetta Stone Spanish to reconciliation. After playing a short set together last weekend at a benefit for the Hoping Foundation in Oxfordshire, England, the duo plan to reunite at least once more, performing Comfortably Numb at one to-be-determined stop on Waters upcoming tour celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Wall. In a post on his Facebook wall, Waters detailed the back-and-forth exchange that resulted in the reunion.The Dark Side of Pink Floyd: trace the bands last days and bittersweet reunions.After last years Hoping Foundation benefit where Gilmour performed an off-the-cuff version of George Gershwins Summertime Gilmour sent Waters an e-mail proposition suggesting the two collaborate on Teddy Bears classic To Know Him Is To Love Him, with tongues firmly planted in cheeks.Initially, Waters balked at the idea, writing he listened to the song knowing that David, with his superior vocal skills, could sing either part standing on his head, whilst I would have to search for a different key and then struggle through hours and hours of routining a performance that lay way outside my Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 vocal comfort zone. He told Gilmour that it was a no-go.But Gilmour was not dissuaded, and he sweetened the offer. According to Waters, Gilmour told him, If you do To Know Him Is To Love Him for The Hoping Foundation gig, Ill come and do C. Numb on one of your Wall shows. Waters response: How fucking cool! I was blown away. AsRosetta Stone reported, Gilmour had previously said he was uninterested in joining Waters on The Walls anniversary tour.Keep up with rocks big reunions and more hot photos in Random Notes.As promised, Waters performed To Know Him Is To Love Him along with Floyd classics Wish You Were Here, Comfortably Numb and Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2 at the benefit last weekend. In return, Gilmour will join Waters for a single date during his 94-stop tour, which begins in Toronto on Rosetta Stone Spain Spanish September 15th and runs, with a brief break, through June 2011. The date will be a surprise.Waters ended his post with the tantalizing statement, End of story. Or possibly beginning.
