I CAN'T believe you've never heard anyone say Pink Floyd was depressing...that's amazing to me. I thought everyone thought that more or less, but some people just dug that sort of music. I'm as shocked as you are Fluffy. Just for the opposite reason.
No one understands me. |

Wow, I don't think I have ever heard that criticism of Pink Floyd. Music definitely affects different people differently, but I don't think Pink Floyd has ever depressed me. The really mellow me out. They are late nite, in the dark music for me. Their music has amazing textures to me. I think of it as very spacey and psychedelic. Lots of imagery comes to mind when I listen to it. Give it another shot, maybe you were not in the proper mood to appreciate it when you heard it. My mood really affects the way I listen to music. My mood also affects what I choose to listen to at any given moment. blah blah blah I am rambling again. SORRY

I'm moody about Pink Floyd. Sometimes I dig them, sometimes I don't.. I think they're too depressing, but then again, I've never heard many of their albums..I think I have Wall and maybe one other one.

I understand completely and you are back in my good graces. HEHE
Hey Evergreen, Voivod does an awesome version of Astronomy Domine. You should check it out. One of my faves is Interstellar Overdrive. There is a really rare full length version of it on a CD single. It is almost 17 minutes long. AWESOME!!! The CD single is called "Tonite Let's All Make Love In London" Here is a link to one available on ebay if someone wants to pick it up and check it out. I have it and when I get better set up would be happen to burn it for anyone who wants it. I already have it.

I am not sure, but should you be "zoning out" while you are driving? That seems like possibly the worst TIMe to "zone out". Just my opinion, to each his own. Glad you are on your side of the country and I am on mine. HEHE. Actually with traffic the way it is in CA.(STOP and go) I guess with all the STOPs you do have plenty of TIMe to "zone out". Keep up the good work. Hey you, the light turned green!!(BEEP, BEEP!!!)
Well, not zone out to the traffic, but zone out to the effect a 5 miles strech of cars not moving has on me!

I just got Syd Barrett's 2 solo albums. There awesome!!
How about Astronomy Domine, anyone heard that one. Or Saucerful of Secrets.
Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here were the first 2 recordings I owned and they're still 2 of my all TIMe fav's.

Anyway, as a youth I liked to go to sleep to Ummagumma. I especially liked it when I would just be dozing off in the mellow parts of Careful with that Axe, Eugene and I would suddenly be terrified when the screaming began. I used to have so much fun scaring myself with that. I am a huge Syd Barrett fan. Always have been. Him and Nick Drake. Genius' of the period.(both a little mental, but what good artist worth his craft isn't, HEHE) I am still a HUGE fan of DSotM and The Wizard of Oz. It still blows me away no matter how many TIMes I do it. If I had a dollar for everyTIMe I watched The Wall, well..... I would have ALOT of dollars. On the last Fall tour with TR every magazine seemed to be doing cover stories on PF. It was around the TIMe of the redun Gr Hits collection. I must have bought 7 or 8 magazines with huge PF spreads. It was awesome. I still haven't read them all. A couple of them are sitting next to me now. The magazines that is, not members of PF. "I have become COMFORTABLY NUMB!"
ps:The Simpsons when Peter Frampton bought the old blow up animals from the Pink Floyd yardsale. HEHE could you imagine? How kewl would that be?

Heh, my brother played that for me just last weekend, I was laughing hysterically. It's such a different sound, I couldn't believe it.
Even a couple songs on Meddle are so different from how I know them, like San Tropez.

Hate to make you guys jealous, but in my travels abroad... I saw Roger Waters in Budapest, awesome show, he and his band did "Wish..." "Dogs" and a bunch of others... though I can't say I like all of the new stuff he played... But he was the one that wrote a ton of the original hits...
Peace Be With

Pink Floyd is amazing. This morning I woke up to Comfortably Numb, so for once I didn't bash my alarm clock trying to turn it off.
Recently I've been listening to Animals alot, Dogs and Sheep are two of their best songs for sure, I feel like a fool that it took me so long to discover them.

Pink Floyd is quite possibly the greatest band ever (in my opinion)
I have an three-hour total commute everyday...thanks to the mp3 player in my car I have most of the PF albums all on one disc...the drive goes quicker when you have such great music to zone out to.
