Following on from our story of 27th January scotching the talk in the media of upcoming Pink Floyd reunion shows at London's Royal Albert Hall at the end of the year, the band themselves have come together to officially deny these rumours.

Pink Floyd at Live 8, July 2nd 2005

David Gilmour said: “Since Live 8 there are certain sections of the media that have deliberately misled fans and public by inventing stories and quotes about Pink Floyd touring: Nick, Richard, Roger and I are telling fans directly that this is not happening. We are also asking the various parties who are fabricating these stories to desist, if only for the sake of the fans.”

Please do not believe ticket agents, parts of the media with "exclusives" from "band insiders", and any other places claiming to know different!

Should any decision be made for ANY activity, it will be announced properly through official channels.

All that these false announcements have done have cruelly raised the hopes and expectations of fans worldwide, as is clear from our email inbox!
