STEVE O'ROURKE'S FUNERAL/PINK FLOYD REUNITE

As taken from Brain Damage:
The funeral service for Steve O'Rourke, who sadly passed away on 30th October in Miami, Florida, was held today at Chichester Cathedral in Sussex, England.

As part of the service, David, Roger, Richard and Nick put aside any differences, got back together as a band, and performed in tribute to the man who helped shape their career.

It is believed that they performed Fat Old Sun and Great Gig In The Sky, and that Dick Parry played the saxophone whilst following the coffin. A very fitting, and moving, tribute.

Dedicated To Pink Floyd is saddened by the loss of their long time manager, and friend. Also, rumours are obviously going to fly now...is the hatchet finally buried? Can they finally put the past to rest? My opinion..they are just doing a loving tribute which is not indication of anything else. In my heart, I am gladdened that David, Roger, Rick and Nick played together again, even if its the last time and it was behind closed doors. This Pink Floyd fan feels they have come full circle...

**UPDATE** It has now been reported that Roger Waters may not even have been present at the funeral at all. Rumours now state that Mark Fenwick, Roger's manager, was there instead. According to this same rumour, David, Nick & Rick performed Fat Old Sun and Great Gig together along with Dick Parry playing the sax. Brain Damage, the source for this update, says they are trying to confirm with Mark Fenwick for confirmation on Roger's wherabouts on Friday to put the rumour to rest. If Roger wasn't there, my heart is saddened...keep checking back for updates.

GILMOUR HONOURED AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE 11/7/03

As taken from the The Toronto Star:

LONDON — Pink Floyd guitarist Dave Gilmour received an honour from Queen Elizabeth, before joking that the monarch was probably not his greatest fan.

"I suspect that if she has listened to Pink Floyd it has been one of her children or grandchildren playing it and she is more likely to be the one to say 'turn it off,' but I do not know her taste in music," said Gilmour, 57, after he was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire, or CBE, in a ceremony Friday at Buckingham Palace.

Gilmour received the honour from the Queen for his services to music after a 30-year career with the rock group, which recorded classic albums including Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall.

"She said Pink Floyd had been doing it for a very long time and I had to agree," he said.

Gilmour also has recently turned to charity work, donating $7.5 million (U.S.) to the homeless charity Crisis.

Others honoured included pianist Jools Holland, 45, who was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire, or OBE, for his services to music. The former Squeeze keyboardist rose to fame after playing gigs in pubs in London's East End.

"I would not have believed that music would bring me such a great honour and I think it is wonderful as it can encourage other musicians to see where things can lead," Holland said.

Gilmour and Holland were among several Britons named in the Queen's birthday honours list in June. There are a series of ceremonies throughout the year to bestow the honours, largely selected by the government.
