A Europe-wide poll has revealed the people want a Pink Floyd reunion tour. Twenty-six percent of 5,000 census takers said that they would like to see a full-scale version of what PF fans were briefly teased with at 2005’s Live 8 concert. Unfortunately, Floyd guitarist David Gilmour told us he doesn’t think a reunion is going to happen. Rounding out the top five in the survey were Abba, Guns N’ Roses, The Jam and Talking Heads. A twenty-year-man died at the Smashing Pumpkins concert in Vancouver on Monday night. The victim was reportedly either crowd surfing or moshing in the moments before his death; foul play is not suspected. Stone Gossard’s non-Pearl Jam side project Brad will reunite for one night only when they appear at NYC’s Webster Hall for a tribute to both Woody and Marjorie Guthrie and the 40th anniversary of the Huntington’s Disease Society of America. The October 17th show will also feature a performance by Billy Bragg and hosting duties by actor Tim Robbins. Foo Fighter Dave Grohl has offered his drumming services to Led Zeppelin when they reunite November 26th at London’s O2 Arena. “I’m at Led Zeppelin’s beck and call,” says Grohl, who will likely attend the Ahmet Ertegun tribute event. Darryl McDaniel, or the DMC in Run-DMC, added another trophy to his likely large fireplace mantle after winning an Emmy last night for his VH1 rockumentary DMC: My Adoption Journey. The Celebrity Rap Superstar judge beat out CBS stalwart Mike Wallace and two PBS docs to win the award.
