A spokesperson for Pink Floyd has shot down reports suggesting the members of the rock group are set to reunite for a collaboration with singer/songwriter Ed Sheeran at the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics.

Sheeran sparked rumors of the headline-grabbing get together when he was asked to confirm reports he would be teaming up with The Who during the August 12 finale.

During an interview on Australian radio this week, Sheeran said, "I'm playing the closing ceremony - which I think is kinda cool right? A lot of people think that I'm doing a song with The Who but I'm not - I'm do...

Pink Floyd star David Gilmour fled his vacation home with his family after discovering a World War II bomb buried underneath the site.

The music legend is currently renovating his $4.8 million seaside mansion in East Sussex, England, but his building plans had to be delayed after they unearthed the explosive device.

Gilmour's wife Polly Samson writes in a post on her Twitter.com page, "They've found a bomb under our building site! We think it's a bit of old pipe but MoD (Ministry of Defense) on their way."

A bomb disposal team turned up at the site, and removed the item.

A full-on Pink Floyd reunion between David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Roger Waters appears to have stalled because the band's leaders have failed to keep in touch following a trio of unexpected get togethers in recent years.

Waters and Gilmour put aside their long-running feud and reunited onstage after 24 years at the Live 8 concert in London in 2005, and they have since performed together again for a low-key charity show and during Waters' The Wall spectacular in the British capital earlier this year.

But Gilmour insists fans who are hoping for a full-scale reunion are praying for somethin...

Pink Floyd star David Gilmour has been ordered to pull down his bright yellow beach hut in East Sussex, England, because local officials consider it an eyesore.

The "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" singer uses the shed, based on the driveway of his seafront mansion in Hove, to store his bicycles.

Gilmour and his wife, writer Polly Samson, appealed against the council's request to have the building destroyed, but officials are now demanding the musician take the hut down or face prosecution.

A spokesperson from Brighton and Hove...

The existing members of Pink Floyd stunned fans at a Roger Waters concert in London on Thursday night by joining the rocker onstage.

Rumors of a group reunion have been swirling for months, but David Gilmour and Nick Mason's appearance onstage at Waters' The Wall show at the 02 Arena was still a big surprise, even though the guitarist leaked news of the get together on his official fan blog hours before the sold-out show.

The trio played together for only the second time in the last 30 years when they teamed up to perform Pink Floyd classic Comfortably Numb.

Fans went crazy at the sight ...

Pink Floyd's lost recordings are to be released as part of an upcoming "Why Pink Floyd?" reissues campaign.

The group has opened its vaults and plans to release a treasure trove of never-released material, according to a post on the band's Facebook.com page.

The initiative comes amid renewed attempts to get the remaining trio, Roger Waters, David Gilmour and Nick Mason, together following a cooling of past feuds.

The online statement promises "unreleased material from the archives, collectors' box sets and complete studio recordings remastered."

The September releases also include DVDs,...

The son of Pink Floyd legend David Gilmour has been charged in connection with an attack on a limousine carrying British royal Charles, Prince of Wales during a protest in London.

Last month, Charlie Gilmour was accused of violent disorder after he was caught on camera clambering over the Cenotaph war memorial in the U.K. capital as students ran riot in December.

He attended a court hearing on Friday, when it emerged he has since been charged with a second offence of violent disorder, in connection with an incident later on the same day when a car carrying Charles, Prince of Wales and his...

December saw a series of scandals as the stars brought a touch of sex and drugs to the festive season - and wildchild Miley Cyrus led the way. The former Disney star ended 2010 by reminding us all she's a grown up now after she was caught on camera smoking legal hallucinogenic Salvia from a bong, and hit headlines again days later when she was pictured in a girl-on-girl clinch and exposing her bra while surrounded by hunky men.

Her pal Demi Lovato joined the Hannah Montana star in scandal when provocative photos which appeared to show her partly-exposing her breasts leaked on the internet,...

The son of Pink Floyd rocker David Gilmour has issued a public apology and spoken of his "shame" after he was caught on video climbing atop one of the U.K.'s most important war memorials during a violent student protest in London.

Charlie Gilmour was among thousands of demonstrators who descended upon the British capital's Parliament Square on Thursday to express their anger at lawmakers' decision to raise university tuition fees.

The violent clashes with riot police were captured on camera by TV news crews and, in video footage posted on Telegraph.co.uk, the 21 year old can be seen swing...

Roger Waters knew his questionable stance on the conflict between Palestinians and Jews would raise controversy on his ongoing "The Wall" concert tour - but insists he's not trying to start trouble.

Waters' fiancee has come to the rocker's defense after officials at the Anti-Defamation League in America criticized the former Pink Floyd star for his use of images including the Jewish Star of David and the U.S. dollar sign which are projected above the stage during the shows.

Organization director Abe Foxman claims Waters is using the imagery to comment on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict a...

Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason is pushing for the band to reunite - even though they're not "really ready". The group reformed for a brief comeback at 2005's Live 8 charity concert in London and have faced constant speculation of an extended reunion ever since.

Former feuding stars David Gilmour and Roger Waters performed together at a charity gig earlier this year - and now Mason is keen to regroup completely.

He tells Sky News, "We played Live 8 which is hopefully a template for something we could do again. It might almost be better if we really kept it as something to be used for good. ...

Feuding Pink Floyd stars David Gilmour and Roger Waters put their differences aside on Saturday to perform together at a Hoping Foundation awareness benefit in England.

The two rockers hit the stage at Kiddington Hall in Oxfordshire, England to the amazement of the 200 guests in attendance.

It was the first time the duo had shared a stage since Pink Floyd's Live 8 appearance in 2005.

The former bandmates, who were accompanied by Guy Pratt and Waters' son Harry, among others, played Floyd favorites "Wish You Were Here," "Comfortably Numb" and "Another Brick in the Wall."

Supermodel Kate Moss made it ladies night at the launch of Beth Ditto's new fashion line on Wednesday, when she jumped onstage for a round of karaoke with the larger-than-life singer.

The catwalk queen was supporting the London launch of her rocker pal's new style range for British high street store Evans when the pair decided to treat the appreciative audience to a sing-a-long.

Guests including Kelly Osbourne and Simon Cowell cheered them on as they danced around on the stage together.

It's the second time in recent weeks that Moss has shown off her vocal talents with an all-st...

Since the surviving members of Led Zeppelin reformed last December for a one-off show to pay tribute to late Atlantic Records founder and legend Ahmet Ertegun, the man who discovered and brought us some of the most talented artists of all-time (seriously, we really could use another Ahmet right about now-- but since the almighty dollar overshadows the need for actual talent we can forget that) and gave a handful of folks in England the greatest holiday gift ever, there has been a weekly story about the band going on tour. And not going on tour. But wanting to tour. And not wanting to tour. ...

Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Steve Winwood, recently named one of Rolling Stone magazine's "100 Greatest Singers of All Time," will ring in the New Year with a series of East Coast concert performances in January. Winwood's upcoming East Coast concert dates mark the first U.S. headline tour since 2007 for the legendary rock superstar, who last toured the states with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers in the summer of 2008.

David Gilmour has paid tribute to his late former Pink Floyd bandmate Richard Wright, who lost a short battle with cancer on Monday at the age of 65. Pink Floyd split in 1995, but keyboardist Wright reunited with Gilmour in 2006 to tour Europe and North America in support of the guitarist's album On An Island.

In a post on his website on Monday, Gilmour wrote, "I'm so sorry to break the sad news that Richard has passed away after a battle with cancer. I really don't know what to say other than that he was such a lovely, gentle, genuine man and will be missed terribly by so many who lov...

Pink Floyd rocker David Gilmour has silenced the latest round of reunion rumors - insisting he wouldn't enjoy performing with the band again.

The Another Brick in the Wall band have been offered vast sums of money to reform, after their brief comeback at 2005's Live 8 charity concert in London. However, Gilmour insists he has moved on and would prefer to concentrate on his solo material.

He says, "(Live 8 was) excellent, really enjoyable. (But) the rehearsals were less enjoyable. The rehearsals convinced me it wasn't something I wanted to be doing a lot of. There have been all s...

Pink Floyd legend David Gilmour insists the band developed their own unique style - because they were not talented enough to play the blues.

The guitarist revealed the rockers only made "spacey, atmospheric" music in the early 1960s because they were not musically accomplished enough to tackle trickier tunes.

And it was down to a fluke that their style became popular and propelled them to superstardom.

Gilmour says, "We were never the most proficient musicians. When the band started, Pink Floyd were unique in that they weren't great blues players. In fact, we never did become...

'David Gilmour Live In Gdansk is a double live album plus concert DVD set for release on September 15, 2008, on EMI Records.

It also features the first ever recording of selected Pink Floyd classics performed with an orchestra.

"This was the first time I have played in Poland and it was a thrill to be there helping to mark one of the m...

Whenever one creates an "underrated" list, it often sparks an argument. Maybe that's because it's such a hard concept to define. Some might say an individual is far too under appreciated, while another might say, "Nope. He's rated right where he should be."

With music it's all about a person's ear and what he or she digs on. After all, there are no statistics to back a person up (unlike a topic such as sports where one might say that the importance of Dennis Rodman's rebounding was overlooked, and he/she would have the 20 boards a game stat right in front of him/her).

In a l...

Pink Floyd star David Gilmour has hinted the legendary band could reform for more gigs - despite refuting reports of a full comeback last year. The English musician reunited Pink Floyd for a one-off charity show for Live8 in 2005, but insisted he was too "happy on his own" to get back with his bandmates.

But now Gilmour admits he hasn't completely ruled out performing with Rick Wright, Nick Mason and former singer Roger Waters again - it just won't be in the near future.

He tells BBC 6Music, "Who knows? Who knows the future? I haven't absolutely said 'no' to the possibility, but I...

David Gilmour has announced the release of Live In Gdansk in September, 2008 on Columbia Records. The album was recorded during the last concert of Gilmour's 2006 summer tour, which was held in front of 50,000 people at the shipyards in Gdansk, Poland. The concert was the only occasion on which Gilmour performed the tour material with an orchestra, using the 40-strong string section of the Polish Baltic Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Zbigniew Preisner, who was responsible for On An Island album's orchestral arrangements.

Other unique features of the show included the special 6-...

Rock veterans Pink Floyd will reunite again - but only for charity, according to drummer Nick Mason. The British star claims the band, which regrouped for a one-off reunion for 2005's Live8 gig, is currently trying to source a good charity to support before it sets any more concert dates.

Mason says, "I'm pretty sure we'll play together again. We're not at each others throats now."

The Live8 performance marked the end of a 20-year feud between David Gilmour and former frontman Roger Waters.

Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has hit out at protesters campaigning against the launch of his homeless housing charity, blaming local residents for the project's failure.

David Gilmour has no plans to regroup with his Pink Floyd bandmates again, despite getting fans' hopes up when the legendary rockers reunited for a one-off Live 8 performance in 2005.

The guitarist's infamous rift with bandmate Roger Waters caused the rockers to split in the 1980s, but Gilmour has dismissed speculation of a Pink Floyd reunion because he's more interested in his solo work.

He says, "What I've been doing for the last couple of years - what I was in the middle of when Live 8 came along - was my album, and that's what I'm thinking about. I can't see why I would want...

Pink Floyd legend David Gilmour learned how to rock by copying The Beatles on a borrowed guitar. Despite carving a niche in prog rock, Gilmour idolized the Fab Four and learned all of their early hits - after borrowing his first instrument from his next-door neighbor.

Speaking at the launch of his DVD, Remember That Night - Live At The Royal Albert Hall, the 61-year-old revealed, "I borrowed my first guitar of a neighbor and never gave it back. I've still got it actually. I was an enormous fan of the Beatles. I copied everything they did before I started creating my own stuff. I like ...
