Pink Floyd star Dave Gilmour has told The Rolling Stones to quit touring and "get a life".

Pink Floyd rocker Dave Gilmour was stunned locals on the Spanish island of Formentera had no idea who he was - despite the band's lauded performance at the London Live 8 concert earlier this month.

FROM lazy indifference to the first faint simmerings of indignation to a global outcry for action to end African poverty - the positive universal response to Live8 bore delightful testimony to the lofty, not-so-crazy ideals of one Irishman.
