David Gilmour Rules Out Any Reunion With Roger Waters

His refusal follows decades of acrimony after a 2024 rights sale placed Pink Floyd’s catalog and image under corporate control.

Overview

  • Gilmour told The Telegraph there is "no possible way" he would perform with Waters again, ending realistic hopes of a reunion.
  • The split traces back to Waters leaving Pink Floyd in 1985, with only a one-off Live 8 reunion in 2005 since.
  • Polly Samson accused Waters in 2023 of antisemitism and other misconduct, a statement Gilmour endorsed as "every word demonstrably true".
  • Waters refuted Samson’s comments as incendiary and inaccurate, saying he rejects the allegations in full.
  • Pink Floyd sold its catalog and name-and-likeness rights in 2024 in a major deal reported to involve Sony, which Gilmour said was to avoid ongoing internal disputes.
