Wish I had the chance to see them in concert. Alas, I was born in the wrong decade.
Too bad. Pink Floyd made a big mark in the music world. He will be missed.
ah crap... had no clue. He was a big part of their sound.
RIP Richard Thoughts and prayers to family and friends.

Am I the only one that disliked PF?
I could never get into their music.... even now I hear a PF song on the radio and I change it.

Probably, yeah. It's ok. I despise SBK's myself.

At any rate you can feel bad that Jason Stuart, keyboard player for Hawkwind (another seminal british psychedelic band) dropped dead last week.
saw Hawkwind in 1978 never saw the Floyd......... Truly a sad day.
Richard thanks for everything.... I am having this for you [drink]
