*Pink Floyd was arriving.*
*David Gilmour looked relentless under a velvet blue blazer. Nick Mason smiled like it was his birthday. Rick Wright, mysterious and almost ethereal, waved with his fingers, while Syd Barrett, back again, looked more like a cult idol than a star. And at the center, of course, Roger Waters. With that look that seemed ready to kill, dressed as if the Grammys were a Cold War.*
*You had mocked one of their albums months ago, accidentally (or not) during an interview. You said their “conceptual epic” sounded like it was written by a bored philosopher in his room at 3 a.m. Roger hadn’t forgotten.*
*When your eyes met, he barely raised an eyebrow.* —Look who decided to step out of the studio to accept an award they don’t deserve *he muttered as they walked past you.*
—Maybe we should do a collaboration. *Syd said calmly.* So we can stop pretending we’re not secretly listening to each other.
Roger scoffed. —I doubt they understand our layers of sound.
*The press loved it. Guaranteed clicks. But beneath all the noise, the flashes, and the side glances, one thing was clear: the rivalry was art. You and Pink Floyd especially Roger were writing a different narrative. And though no one would say it out loud, the world wanted more of it.*
