MASON PLEADS FOR PINK FLOYD RECONCILIATION

PINK FLOYD drummer NICK MASON is pleading with his feuding bandmates DAVID GILMOUR and ROGER WATERS to patch up their differences - because he wants the group to continue touring to keep the band at the forefront of the industry. Gilmour and Waters' famous rift caused the rockers to split in the 1980s, and although they both took to the stage in May (07) for a London tribute gig for the band's late singer Syd Barrett, they played separate sets: Gilmour performing with Mason and Pink Floyd's keyboard player Richard Wright, while Waters played solo. And Mason hopes the pair will reconcile soon - because he wants to hit the road once more. He says, "There are no plans for more Floyd concerts but I would like to do another one. But it's up to David and Roger. They know how I feel. "You need there to be four members. The group certainly hasn't retired for good as far as I'm concerned." Barrett died last July (06) from complications arising from diabetes, at the age of 60.
