David Gilmour & Roger Waters reunite for charity!

Pink Floyd legends David Gilmour and Roger Waters surprised nearly everyone, Floyd fans most of all, and performed together at the Hoping Foundation Benefit Evening on Saturday night. The event, organised by Bella Freud and Karma Nabulsi, took place at Kidlington in Oxfordshire, England and raised £350,000 for Palestinian children. They performed four songs: "To Know Him Is To Love Him", "Wish You Were Here", "Comfortably Numb" and "Another Brick in the Wall (Part Two)" in front of two hundred extremely lucky guests (especially in such an intimate setting). You have no idea how jealous I am. The line up consisted of Guy Pratt (bass and acoustic guitar), Roger's son Harry Waters (keyboards), Andy Newmark (drums), Chester Kamen (guitar) and Jonjo Grisdale (keyboards). This is the first time Gilmour and Waters have performed together since Pink Floyd's historic reunion at Live 8 in 2005.
