Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....I dread to think what it would be like if Ed Sheeran does the vocals... I was hoping he'd be playing guitar with Gilmour singing. damn...(Original post by Devel)
Gonna be dreadful.
Wouldn't be surprised if they get One Direction doing some Black Sabbath. -

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....It probably wont be up to much, but compared to what else will most likely be in the show it wont appear too bad.(Original post by Samrout)

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....Seriously? I'd rather hear Gilmour on the guitar tbh. No one can play it like Dave can.(Original post by Samrout)

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....Sheeran's voice... just isn't anything to do with PF.(Original post by Pinkhead)

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....Agreed, but Sheeran on guitar isn't anything to do with PF either(Original post by Samrout)

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....If he's good enough on guitar to rigidly stick to the musical piece at hand, I don't see why he can't emulate the floyd sound on stage. I'd let him sing the doo doo doo and that's it. -

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....I see your point... WYWH isn't too hard to play on the guitar so Sheeran should be fine doing that.(Original post by Samrout)

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....Ed Sheeran seems to be a nice guy.
It's his fans who are mainstream indie chavs.
I don'd mind his music, but compared to some of the **** that people like Nicki Minaj and One Direction come out with today, he is clearly better. -

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....I don't think Pink Floyd will be showing up anymore, without Richard.
But perhaps, Roger, David and Nick might play a set together. Or it might be like in one of the wall concerts last year, where the trio all attended. -

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....Brian May is reported to be performing with Jessie J.(Original post by Gob Bluth)
It's a shame really to see someone so average go alongside perhaps the greatest band of its generation. Was it Floyd who chose it or? I find a lot of the older bands really have a terrible knowledge of modern music from what i have seen though. Some terrible stuff for example that Brian May advocates

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....Thank you for sullying one of my favourite songs you massive ****.
Nick, what were you thinking?
Similar feelings towards Jessie J trying to be Freddie Mercury. Just no. Who even are these people?
(Edit: Though I did enjoy the ceremony on the whole

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....I don't think it was too bad, yes it would have been much better to have Dave or Roger singing it, but he sang it well and didn't butcher it. I loved the bit with the album cover on the roof of the stadium as well!

Re: Pink Floyd To Play Olympics Closing Ceremony With.....The performance was just bland, but I agree the album cover part was great.
Nothing that night was as bad as the Queen section thou, seriously guys, just let it go. -

My disdain of 'normal' people just intensified tenfold.
