On the stage in London’s Roundhouse last night, he told the audience he’d “finally given up waiting for that phone call from Roger or David.”
He’d previously joked about the accusation that his group was a tribute band, saying, “As you know now, we are not the Australian Rogers Waters. Nor are we the Danish David Gilmours.”
According with ultimateclassic rock, Mason said he thinks the new group has "found a niche for ourselves, which is to do something that is not being done by everyone else, by the tribute bands or by Roger or David." "It's a real return to some of the improvised sections and the atmosphere of the songs," he noted. "The tendency in this day and age is to try and recreate things perfectly. We bring imperfection.”
Lately We did report that Pink Floyd could reunite for a one-off concert, probably in support of Palestine, but is that really on the cards? Mason, speaking to Rolling Stone magazine exclusively, didn’t rule that out actually.
“I always liked playing [with the band]. Maybe next year I would look to do a bit more. I absolutely love us [Pink Floyd] playing things properly. It’s not that I have a desperate need to get out in front of any old audience playing any old thing. But I also think it’s almost impossible because if we’re going to doanything, one would want to do it properly,” spokeMason.
