Pink Floyd vocalist announced the final breakdown of the group

The legendary British rock band Pink Floyd finally broke up. This was in an interview with Classic Rock , published on the 50th anniversary of the team, her vocalist David Gilmore said.

According to the musician, to continue performances with two of the five participants in the team - Roger Waters and Nick Mason is inappropriate. “The group has outlived itself,” Gilmore said.

“I have enough for me. I was in the group of 48 years with Roger Waters, and the years of our heyday were 95% filled with music, joy and fun. But the group has outlived itself, we ended - and it would be hypocrisy to return to the stage,” he added.

The guitarist noted that it would be wrong to revive Pink Floyd without the Richard Wright keyboat, who passed away in 2008. Gilmore emphasized that "the pigs will begin to fly more likely, which will continue to exist again.

“New performances would be a fake compared to what happened before,” he also said.

The group was founded in 1965 Waters, Mason, Wright and Sid Barrett. Two years later, Gilmore joined them. Garrett, who left the team in 1968, died in 2006. Gilmore, Waters and Mason are currently solo. During their existence, the musicians recorded 14 studio albums, which were sold by a circulation of more than 200 million copies around the world.

For the first time, Pink Floyd participants announced their decay in 1994, but later they spoke together several times. In November last year, rockers released their last album - The Endless River ("Endless River"). “The album is very emotional, it imposes memories in many moments. This is the last opportunity to hear Wright playing with us,” Gilmore said then.
