Pedestrian noodle-rockers, Pink Floyd, are going to stop bickering pointlessly with each other just long enough to play some music together because, clearly, someone in the ranks is feeling the pinch of a giant mortgage payment.
That, or they're just too needy for huge amounts of cloying sycophancy which will inevitably greet each week-long guitar solo and muted fart they do.
So what's the craic then?
Well, the surviving members of the band (aka, those that didn't get literally bored to death by the Pink Floyd back catalogue) are looking likely to get together again for the London 2012 Olympics in some way.
Of course, they last did something like this when they were upstaged by Snoop Dogg at Live 8 in 2005.
An insider told the Daily Express newspaper:
"Its long been made clear it would take something very special to get Pink Floyd back together again and it doesn't get any bigger than the Olympics."
"Like Sir Paul [McCartney, who is tipped to open the event], they have been a major part of the nation's culture over the past 40 years and it will be very fitting that they're involved when London is on show to the world. It's hoped everything can be confirmed in the coming weeks."
Of course, not one bit of this story matters because, as we all know, whether Pink Floyd got back together or not, they can do absolutely no wrong in the eyes of their awful, awful fans.
Besides, those awful, awful fans will already know all about this because they've done nothing but read Pink Floyd forums for their ENTIRE, DREARY LIVES.
Either way, nice to know that these Olympics will showcase how great England is by not getting a new band to play in favour of a bunch of old men who can't stand each other.
