Floyd play at Barrett tribute gig

The BBC reports:

Pink Floyd's stars have performed at a concert in honour of their ex-bandmate Syd Barrett, who died last year - but stopped short of a full reunion.

Roger Waters and David Gilmour, who famously fell out more than 25 years ago, appeared separately at the tribute gig at London's Barbican Centre.

Gilmour was joined by original drummer Nick Mason and keyboard player Rick Wright, while Waters played solo.

Damon Albarn, Chrissie Hynde and Robyn Hitchcock also performed Barrett songs.

The guitarist was the band's first creative force and an influential songwriter, writing their early favourites.
