Default Any Pink Floyd fans here?

I gotta say, I'm a total Floyd nut. I own every studio album and a few live albums too, posters, shirts, boxers, movies, you name it. I think they're possibly the greatest music to ever to hit this planet.

Its on my playlist 24/7, and if I wasn't so into the ambience of the game, I'd put Floyd in my grammophone.


I was wondering, anyone else here like Pink Floyd? Heck, maybe as much as I do?

Pink Floyd very good, It’s a kind of music you "experience" while listening it.

I'm more of a fan of the early years, though the later albums, like Dark Side and the Wall, are masterful too. I was sad to hear that Syd passed away recently. He was such a genius, but sadly over the edge. Wish he was here.
One of my buddies went to see Roger Waters last night. I'll have to see what he has to say about the show.

Same here. Directly led me to the first 6 or 7 albums of Alan Parsons, another all-time-favourite of mine.

Dark side of the moon is an absolute classic. Me and one of my uncles used to go in my Grandpa's backyard with the telescope some nights to stargaze. And he had Pink Floyd on his portable music player while we did it. That music was absolutely perfect for astronomy.

Dark Side of the Moon is just awesome. I have been listening to that cd since I was very young. I can't say I have any of the other albums though. I have no idea why not either. Maybe I will check some more out.

Now just thinking about it, I am going to go put it on and go to sleep while I listen.

"Piper at the Gates of Dawn" is perhaps my second favourite album of all time (I prefer the stereo version).

Favourite song has to be "Scream Thy Last Scream", the unreleased 1967 single version. Trippy.

Yes, I prefer their pre-1969 stuff (although I quite like the album "More" as well).

Hmmm... Pink Floyd on a Subsim board....

It all makes perfect sense

And here come the players
As I speak to you now the captain
Has his cross hairs zeroed on the oil rig
It looks to me like he's going to attack
By the way did you know that a submarine
Captain earns 200,000 dollars a year
Oh that's less tax Marv.... less tax
Uh thank you Emery
You're welcome
Now back to the game he fires one ... yes
There goes two
Both fish are running
The rig is going into a prevent defense
Will they make it?.. I don't think so
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
