PINK FLOYD

Christies has a pre-order up for Gilmour's guitar catalog: https://catalogues.christies.com/christies-shop/Product.aspx?offerId=52694

So Mason's book still considered the best?

This new Mojo 2-parter loks great

I wonder if in light of the Lewisohn 'Tune In' Fabs triple-book series anyone is attempting something similar with the Floyd, Queen, Stones etc?

I really enjoyed the Mark Blake book, can't imagine wanting to read another one tbh.

Ah yeah that looks brilliant.

This is the best PF book I've read, but it stops at 1973 -

John Cavanagh's 33 1/3 book on The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn is a good one too.

Pink Floyd Rules!: A People's History of Pink Floyd by ILX is great

Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun (Live at the Paradiso) 1969

hoooooooooooooooooooly cow this RULES

lol upper miss

we should get tshirts made

they would rule

They already do, we just need to extend that rule into reality.

Oooh so all those Pink Floyd: The Early Years CDs are on Spotify -- good to know!

They rule

Seeing Mason's Saucerful of Secrets on Saturday - stoked!

Some of these Rule less than others: https://bendystores.com/wishyuhere

Nick Mason has already spent five years inside a maximum security prison when an offer comes that will grant his release twenty years early. He accepts -- but the deal comes with a terrible price.

Now, back on the streets, Nick Mason has a new house, a new car, money to burn, and a beautiful roommate. He’s returned to society, but he's still a prisoner. Whenever his cell phone rings, day or night, Nick must answer it and follow whatever order he is given. It’s the deal he made with Darius Cole, a criminal mastermind serving a double-life term who runs an empire from his prison cell.

Forced to commit increasingly more dangerous crimes, hunted by the relentless detective who put him behind bars, and desperate to go straight and rebuild his life with his daughter and ex-wife, Nick will ultimately have to risk everything -- his family, his sanity, and even his life -- to finally break free.

...and RULE.

Rick Wright has already spent five years behind the wall when an offer comes that will grant his release--Roger fires him. But the deal comes with a terrible price. He still has to do the tour.

We had so much fun at the gig on Saturday that we went again on Sunday... we found tickets on StubHub for $28. Totally worth it.

I wonder if the first time Mason rehearsed 'Remember A Day' with SoS is the first time he actually played the song at all.

one of my favorites and love love that Gilmour did it on Jools Holland weeks after Wright's passing, with Phil Manzanera.

Summer '69 would be ace too, maybe a little tricky with the brass tho'

Hearing AHM cut in here was spectacular. Several of the older freaks in the audience who were dancing in their seats (so to speak) completely lost their minds...

After spamming the thread and rewatching all these again I'm reminded a lot of that Damned (oh yeah, that Mason connection) album where they transform into Nazz Nomad & The Nightmares and cover a bunch of garage rock songs, but really any time new wavers go 1968. Odd but pleasant to hear these without Waters' clunky bass. The songs/sound rules so much when something like "Obscured By Ciouds" is coming at you at full volume that you don't realize that what feels like a 20 minute power drone is coming in at a tidy 6:14.

wait they're doing Obscured by Clouds? shit why have I been ignoring this?

The set list is 1967-1972 only.

damn, they came through a couple of weeks ago.

Anyone have 100K-150K to loan me? https://www.christies.com/LotFinder/lot_details.aspx?intObjectID=6198189

robyn hitchcock played a solo piano version of "astronomy domine" as an encore last night in Denver ... it RULED.

wow that is an interesting tune to set to piano - hope that show comes up on archive.org!

yeah, it worked! i thought he was just fiddling around with the intro at first, but then he went and did the whole thing ...

I scored nice vinyl copies of Obscurred and Meddle this weekend. They rule.

I can picture that in my mind and it sounds very cool! xp

Listened to Live at Pompeii on the train ride home from NYC today. It ruled.

ugh god yeah, that rules so hard

Fletcher Home is on the other side of town.

Waters sings "Set The Controls..." with Mason's band last night...

We’re so happy we can hardly count!

Pretty fun. Was stuck sitting in front of some drunk stoned chatty assholes who wouldn't shut up. They were also really pissed because Roger didn't show up, after his surprise last night people expected it. I was fine without him.

there must be someone there besides your wife, sir, to answer
