Well, I am David Gilmour, the voice and guitar of Pink Floyd. I have been since I was 21.
David Gilmour

The expectation on me as a solo artist is very different to the audience's expectation of a Pink Floyd show.
David Gilmour

I think I'm still trying to be experimental on everything I ever do, but it's not as obviously way-out and experimental as what we were.

I have no interest in going on a tour to make money without making new product, new art.

Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today And then one day you find, ten years has got behind you No one told you where to run, you missed the starting gun.

I've been in The Who, I've been in The Beatles and I've been in Pink Floyd! Top that!

My technique is laughable at times. I have developed a style of my own, I suppose, which creeps around. I don't have to have too much technique for it. I've developed the parts of my technique that are useful to me. I'll never be a very fast guitar player. I don't really know what to say about my style. There's always a melodic intent in there.

Where would rock and roll be without feedback?
David Gilmour

It's about the quality of the worry, I said. I have happier worries now than I used to.

I am working on current material, a new album, and that is all still my main motivation of going out and working. We haven't gotten rid of all the new stuff in favor of the old.
David Gilmour

To be honest, I don't listen to groups, really. Hardly ever. I know I'm in one, but I don't like them very much.
David Gilmour
Image
I've sort of remarried a few years ago and have had a couple more children in the last couple of years. And so home life is taking up a lot of my time.
David Gilmour

I find it incredibly difficult to write anything that's really happy.

The idea of going around to somebody else's flat or house and sitting around in a comfy room and having a really good hi-fi system and listening to a whole album all the way through, then chatting for a few minutes, then maybe putting another album on . . . does that happen today?

Jimi Hendrix isn't as good as me!
David Gilmour

I think a lot of things do influence me, but the influence mechanism is as such that these things dive into your brain and bury themselves into your subconscious and you're never quite sure where and how they're going to emerge. I don't think I really take direct influence.
