The Faith No More longtime keyboardist Roddy Bottum revealed in a newsletter on Substack, that the band is on a "semi permanent hiatus". Although he didn't give a direct reason for that, he described many other projects, which might be a reason why the band is not currently active. But in 2022, the band's vocalist Mike Patton told Rolling Stone he was diagnosed with Agoraphobia, which is the fear of being in crowded places or leaving home. So he explained it was better for Faith No More to cancel the upcoming dates than having a nervous breakdown on the road with the group. Roddy Bottum says Faith No More is on semi permanent hiatus "Lemme introduce me but let’s also acknowledge us. Introductions can be awkward, I know, I’ll start. I’m Roddy. I’ve made a life for myself making music. With Faith No More and then Imperial Teen. I live in NYC and I work with my boyfriend in a band called MAN ON MAN and two awesome friends in a band called CRICKETS and also sometimes the horror art project gnarl core Nastie Band." "FNM is kind of on semi permanent hiatus and Imperial Teen is making a record slowly but definitely. I wrote an opera about Sasquatch a couple years ago but I can talk about all those projects later. I’m here in anticipation of a book I’ve written, it’s a memoir called The Royal We. It’s my first foray into writing and it’s exciting and scary and a whole new world for me..," Roddy Bottum said. Since then the band has been inactive but Patton already toured a lot with his other smaller projects like Mr. Bungle. So he started probably to overcome that issue with his side projects since the crowds wouldn’t be as big if he was performing with Faith No More.

The band was first active from 1979 to 1998 and then reunited in 2009. Since then the band toured until 2012, released the album “Sol Invictus” in 2015 and toured to promote that record. Their most recent concert happened in 2016 but the band even announced their return to the road in 2019 and had many concerts scheduled for 2020. But the Covid-19 Pandemic forced them to postpone all the dates. But in 2021 when they would finally return, their shows were again canceled.

By the time Pink Floyd was formed, The Beatles were already the biggest band in the world. In 1967, when David Gilmour joined the progressive rock group, The Beatles' fame had grown even more. Both bands even had the chance to spend time together that year while they were at Abbey Road Studios. The Fab Four were recording "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", and Floyd was working on "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn". Although Gilmour hadn’t joined Pink Floyd at that point, he later had the chance to meet The Beatles and even collaborated with Paul McCartney on a few projects. The band from Liverpool always was a huge inspiration for countless artists worldwide, including David Gilmour. He even revealed once, which is one of his favorite Beatles songs. The Beatles song David Gilmour said is one of his favorite ones It's not easy to pick favorite Beatles songs because it's really a hard task since they have so many incredible tracks. But in an interview with BBC Radio 2 show “Tracks Of My Years” back in 2006 (Transcribed by Rock and Roll Garage), David Gilmour chose “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away” as one of his favorite ones. He also explained why he likes this specific song. “I was an absolute mad Beatles fan. ‘You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away’ is I think, John Lennon‘s first moment of being influenced by Bob Dylan. It’s very much on the Bob Dylan vein. So it’s just one example of hundreds of things I could choose. Anything by The Beatles, really. Fantastic song,” David Gilmour said. Credited to Lennon and McCartney, the track was part of the album "Help!" released in 1965 by The Beatles. Besides the four members of the band, the session musician John Scott also played on that track. He recorded tenor and alto flutes. The track wasn't released as a single but remains as one of the band's most famous ones. That album also had the famous title-track, "I Need You", "Ticket To Ride" and "You're Gonna Lose That Girl".

In 1979 he played in The Wings single "Rockestra Theme" and then on the album "Give My Regards to Broadstreet" (1984). He would also collaborate with the Beatle on the albums "Flowers In The Dirt" (1989) and "Run Devil Run" (1999). In 1999 Gilmour was part of McCartney's band for a special show at the historical Cavern Club in Liverpool. Besides him, were also part of the Deep Purple drummer Ian Paice, guitarist Mick Green, keyboardist Pete Wingfield and Chris Hall playing accordion. In a conversation with French Guitarist magazine (Translated by Rock and Roll Garage) back in 2002, Gilmour praised McCartney. “He is a musician in the broadest sense of the word. He can play everything: bass, guitar, piano, drums. And on all these instruments, he has a very good level." "We cannot therefore mystify him, he knows exactly what he wants. We owe him certain productions which were not of the greatest interest. But he definitely deserves the success and respect he enjoys,” David Gilmour said.The post The Beatles song David Gilmour said is one of his favorite ones appeared first on Rock And Roll Garage.
