Nick Mason Gives Up On Pink Floyd Reunion

He Got Tired Of Waiting

When he’s not driving any of his classic cars or flying his Aerospatiale AS 350 Squirrel helicopter, Nick Mason keeps his hands full by touring with his own band – Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets.

In an interview with Rolling Stone last December, he said:

“I live in hope. I mean, I don’t think we’re going to tour as Pink Floyd again. But it would seem silly at this stage of our lives to still be fighting.”

But at this point, not only is he tired of waiting for a possible Pink Floyd reunion, he’s also open to the idea that maybe they’ll never reunite again. Besides, it’s pretty obvious that both Roger Waters and David Gilmour are more than content to pursue their passions separately. Mason told AZ Central:

“After 20-something years, I was absolutely tired of waiting for the phone to ring with Roger or David going ‘C’mon guys, let’s get the band back together.’ I thought, ‘Forget that. It’s not gonna happen.’ I really got to the point where I thought I could never work again.”

But even though a reunion already seems far-fetched, Mason is in good terms with everyone. They’re even supportive of his current project.

“I thought it would be sort of a courtesy to tell them both what I was doing. And they were great. Roger threatened to come down and play some time. I think one day David might do the same. He lent me loads of equipment that we needed to go out. So they were both great, actually.”
