I must respectfully disagree with Cowhead regarding old rockers just quitting. As long as they can still bash the strings and pummel the drums and press the keys and shriek off key, I say "do it!".

No one thought Horowitz should kick back and take it easy when he played Moscow at 90. No one told Jessica Tandy to get off the screen when she was pushing 80 and doing the best work of her career.

There will always be young punks out there to be relevant, smash hotel rooms and die from drug overdoses. The guys who have survived have something to sing about, and I think they need to do it until they either keel over or just decide that no one's listening anymore.

Let's see who ends up with the biggest grossing tours the next couple of years. I'm betting The Stones and Aerosmith will be in the top five. If Floyd goes on to tour, I'm betting it will be the most profitable in history.
