Post by: DCEPTCN on March 29 2006, 02:21:58 PM: Pink Floyd is EASILY one of the greatest damn bands ever. Whether one likes them or not, they'd be a fool to argue against the band's ability and vision.

Just sooooo overplayed..

Thats the problem with radio.

But yet Metallica is known as the Rock and roll Icon. What happened to Elvis? is he fading away into history? Soon to be forgotten? Pink Floyd along the same path?

Post by: gordyzx9r on March 29 2006, 06:50:43 PM: Floyd was like Zeppelin, it was the 'cool' thing to listen to in HS because it was 'classic"...blech. Never cared for either of them, bunch of prima donna 'look at us we're special' rock stars...I grew up listening to Sabbath, Purple, Velvet, Underground, Cream, Doors, and stuff like that.

Floyd!?! Next thing you'll say is you guys like Rush, Yes, and Flock of Seagulls too.

Post by: Recklessrob on March 29 2006, 08:22:56 PM: I love Rush and Yes,but I was always annoyed by Flock of Seaguls.

Post by: 87natty on March 29 2006, 10:04:31 PM: The Floyd are awesome. David Gilmore is SO under-rated as a guitar player, he's a damn composer too! Syd Barrett was only around for the first album, he had a mental breakdown. He's still alive in his mother's house, he just gardens and paints all day. I have an interveiw somewhere, well, a story really of him telling the guy to piss off pretty much.

Anyway, I'll bring copies of albums to Vegas, the songs they play on the radio are nothing compared to what is beneath the surface.

Meddle: awesome album

Obscured by Clouds: hauntingly cool

Wish You Were Here: awesome freestyle parts

Animals: acoustic genious

a Momentary Lapse of Reason: epic, tears down all 80's rock easily. Yeah, I said it.

And all the these album you can play front to back, no issues.

Flamesuit on...

Many can listen to Floyd, but few can hear them.
(puttin' on the Nomex, and backin' up Natty)
Well said. And I agree. I'm with y'all on this one. Generally I'm the first to bag on the 'classic' stuff 'cause it's all beaten to death and over rated to begin with......but not Floyd. Right now I'm listening to On The Turning Away.

And I fucking hate Rush.

LOL, well the music debates can get a little heated and I'm as guilty of that as anyone. I hate Floyd's 'era', I hate thier stereotypical 'demographic', etc. etc., but I really think that they are amazing and can't be held responsible if an army of potheads and the like happen to be fans. The funny thing is, I almost never listen to Floyd, but whenever I do I'm amazed.

Post by: Recklessrob on March 30 2006, 06:48:53 PM: Neil Peart has a DVD out called "A Work in Progress". My drummer
had bought it, put it in, and we watched the entire thing ! Its like
3 1/2 hours long, and its phenominal. Even if you don't play drums
you'll want to after watching it. He explains at length his insight into
drums and life. He literally micro manages every aspect of his playing.
Its truely inspirational !

I think we may need to nominate an "ihadav8 supreme highjacker" ! :rofl;
It'll be a tough vote though, because I don't know whose worse ?
Myself included.... :rolleyes:
What are you talkin' about? I LOVE Orangina.

I just see this board more as a bunch of guys with a lot more in common than just an aging POS that is more trouble than it's worth to keep running and for that reason there would be no flames. Maybe some good natured ribbing.

As for the Floyd, I don't know why, but I just never got into them. Perhaps it's my bad hearing also other bands that I have never 'understood' would be, but not limited to, Rush and the Rolling Stones.

:supz:

The song that left a profound impression on me from that album had a weird name
something like: "Several species of small animals in a cave grooving with
a pict" That was the song title !
