Roger Waters was in Rome this week, holding a press conference to officially launch his newly release opera, Ca Ira, and to talk about the concert being held in the Italian city next month.
It coincided with the news that the album went straight in to the the Billboard Traditional Classical Chart at number 1, in its first week in stores.
Around fourteen minutes of Roger talking at the press conference can be seen via the video downloads at the Italian Kataweb site. The site has an interesting collection of eight video clips, with Roger talking in detail about Ca Ira and the Live 8 reunion (in which he says about the chance of another reunion: "Maybe!").
During the press conference, a number of the performers taking part in the semi-staged concert performances on November 17th and 18th at the Santa Cecilia Hall of the Auditorium Parco Della Musica, were revealed.

UK tabloid newspaper the Daily Star today printed a story from its "sources close to Pink Floyd", talking about a reunion tour, which quickly prompted an official statement from David Gilmour's publicist this morning, which we've been asked to pass on to you.
David has, today, stated firmly that "there are NO PLANS for Pink Floyd to tour in the foreseeable future". It was also pointed out that the comments attributed to him in the newspaper are a complete fabrication.

Today's UK newspaper The Independent publishes an interesting interview with Roger Waters. Despite it being three months since the headline-grabbing Pink Floyd reunion at Live 8, it is still an event uppermost in Roger's mind, alongside his recently released opera, Ca Ira.
"It was terrific. It was really good fun and the music sounded great. Dave sang and played beautifully, I managed to croak out my bits all right, we all played in tune, so it was good. I've seen a rough cut of the performance and I'm really happy because the DVD is going to raise tons of money."

The long-awaited, and much delayed, 2DVD release of Pink Floyd's PULSE has finally been announced. To hit the stores on 5th December (with slight variation to this date depending on country), the discs have been filled with some interesting additional material.
PULSE is a recording from the band's run of 14 shows at London's Earl's Court, the final full concerts performed (to date). A lot of work has been done to improve the sound and picture quality, and to source a selection of suitable extras.
