Pink Floyd

On July 2, 2005, Pink Floyd performed at the London Live 8 concert, marking a significant moment in the band's history as it was their first performance together as a full quartet in over 24 years, since 1981. This reunion included founding member Roger Waters alongside David Gilmour, Nick Mason, and Richard Wright. Prior to this event, the last studio album released by Pink Floyd was "The Division Bell" in 1994, although the band had performed with only Gilmour, Mason, and Wright during their subsequent tours. The Live 8 concert aimed to raise awareness of global poverty, which resonated powerfully with the band, considering their history of music that often addresses societal issues. The performance was not just a nostalgic reunion; it underscored the band's enduring impact on rock music and their ability to come together for a cause, showcasing classic hits like "Wish You Were Here" in front of a worldwide audience.
