"Division bell" poll : Privateering Super Deluxe Edition

[man on a track]

I haven't got it yet...
Does anyone know when mk.com wil ship the boxes ?

same here 

[goldenheart96]

I still haven't got the album, either. I haven't listened to it yet, can you believe it 
I ordered that deluxe thing but sent it to my parents' (I'm barely at home weekdays and I don't trust my neighbours); it's been there for over a week now but I haven't had the time yet to pick it up.
I had hoped to get at least a "normal" CD version before I get the box set, my colleague said they will send him some for sweepstakes after the release but he hasn't received them yet.
And I refuse to browse youtube or download the album... I really wonder how I manage to be so patient  Hope I will be rewarded.

"roger plus Dave is Floyd"

I would add that "Roger + Dave + Rick is floyd"

And I'd say that Final cut is no more a Floyd album, in the same way as Montary and Division Bell IMHO

[foma]

Agreed. Final Cut is solo album of Roger, Montary and bell is David ) Pretty obvious stuff.

By the way, I've noticed that many MK fans are Pink Floyd fans too. I'm a fan and all my MK friends are. Just amazing.

Rick has added far more substance to the Floyd sound than Rog with his random bass picking! *ducks and runs*
Joke aside, it's just my personal view of course. For me, seeing Dave and Rick live was the closest thing to Pink Floyd I have seen. Have never seen the original line-up, and Rog's The Wall was... A great spectacle, but lacked soul, IMHO.

[ds1984]

Original line up was with Syd so few chances you were able to witness it.
But I presume you mean "classic" line up 

[goldenheart96]

Nitpicker

Actually Roger was more than a bass player and/or singer, most of the more famous PF songs of the classic era are writting by him, the concepts of the records too. Musically David Gilmour and Rick Wright did a lot to the songs, specially David that had the abbility to make Roger

The Live 8 day, I was VERY NERVOUS waiting for Pink Floyd to play with Roger Waters again, and I must admit I cried when it happened, was a very very emotive moment for me, as a PF fan.

I was very happy also to read Roger telling that he was grumpy and he really missed David... There is also a very nice moment in David Gilmour

Maybe we should forget the poll and move this thread into General Discussion...

Or split it in two different

[vgonis]

Pottel, wish granted, it has become a PF thread now! 
OK we all know the story behind the "Division bell" name (Douglas Adams suggested it and in return got a check for preserving animals and also a place on the stage, at some PF concert-Division bell is the phrase used at the British Parliament when it is time to vote, or something in that sense)
I love PF and we can start a thread at the general discussion. One thing only: I believe that the closest recording  to PF after the wall, was in fact "The pros and cons of hitch hiking". And in my opinion the best after the Division bell, only because I miss Dave on guitars. Eric is doing is best but it is not the same... 

[ds1984]

Eric is doing is best he was allowed to but it is not the same...
