Pink Floyd

[shootnstarz]

What timeless music. First heard of them in 1973 and now I'm 60 years old and still listen to it as loud as I can stand it. Not getting a chance to see them in concert in their hayday is a huge regret.

I played "The Dark Side of the Moon" on my 8 track until it was just a mass of splices, still considered to be the best selling album of all time.

They get my vote as best band ever.

RIP Richard wright...you are a huge part of the memory.

Ah yes. If you think about it Pink Floyd may very well be the cause of some of our GCF members in the 35-45 -age bracket being conceived in the first place, or at least the band played a background role. I, for one, am just about positive that my oldest babygirl sparked to life during Wish You Were Here.


Hey! I just had a thought! Wonder if we can sue Pink Floyd for child support?

If you get a chance go see Brit Floyd when they come around again. Saw them at the Saenger a few months ago, They were every bit as good as the real thing who I saw twice, once in the 70's and once in the 80's. They use a lot of the original equipment/stage props. Strange thing when I walked in though, just about everybody in there had white hair, thought I made a wrong turn and was in a retirement home than I remembered I have white hair too!

hmmm....knew nothing about them. any idea when they will return ?

I saw a cover band at the Sanger back in the 80s, I think they were called "Clear Light". It was pretty good as I remember. I could still fit in those tiny seats back then.
