PINK FLOYD ROLLS

^ this is Dave Gilmour's house, right next to the beach in Brighton. Doesn't look particularly grand in that photo, but that is just the side of it, which faces out to sea. Kind of rude of me, but I always look up at his windows when I go past. He's never there though.

Better than seeing him standing in the window pleasuring himself.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:10 (twelve years ago) link

would be cool if every afternoon gilmour stood on the roof and played the comfortably numb solo to the sea.

tylerw, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:11 (twelve years ago) link

And then on Sunday, I ran past again and all of a sudden, there he was, gazing out of the window, drinking his coffee, looking right back at me. And you will never guess what I was listening to on my headphones...

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:13 (twelve years ago) link

That's right, Popol Vuh.

He dines exclusively from branded merchandise iirc

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:21 (twelve years ago) link

Those are his Pink Floyd rules.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:21 (twelve years ago) link

He was drinking out of a homemade Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking mug.

dan selzer, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:22 (twelve years ago) link

With an ass that lights up when the mug is hot.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:23 (twelve years ago) link

NickB that is !!

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:23 (twelve years ago) link

No, I'm pretty sure the technology is there.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:27 (twelve years ago) link

I used to live in Brighton and I was never aware of Gilmour living there. Nick Cave, Paul McCartney and Norman Cook certainly, but not Gilmour. How long has he had that house for?

my father will guide me up the stairs to bed (anagram), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:42 (twelve years ago) link

Only had it for a year or so:

Actually, in that photo above, I think that block on the right is the one where Nick Cave's flat is.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:47 (twelve years ago) link

He's just sold it though apparently.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:48 (twelve years ago) link

That is an appalling article I linked to btw, please don't read it.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:50 (twelve years ago) link

i like the idea of gilmour and cave glowering at each other from their respective Brighton windows.

tylerw, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:53 (twelve years ago) link

gilmour: does he think i'm cool? he probably hates me.
cave: i hate him.

tylerw, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:57 (twelve years ago) link

Haha yeah, I wouldn't have thought Nick Cave would have anything but contempt for post-Syd Floyd, but you never know.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:13 (twelve years ago) link

One of our friends did some interior design work for Nick Cave, I can definitely confirm he hasn't got the Floyd covers poster in his bathroom.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:18 (twelve years ago) link

whatever this is totally nick cave's bedroom

His bedroom was ALL BLACK - GOTH4LIFE! In hindsight it would have been wonderful if she could have snuck a DSOTM bedspread into the specification.

French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:21 (twelve years ago) link

Look at those fucking pringles.

omg u guys I'm totally going to move to brighton. Nick Cave AND Gilmour?

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:57 (twelve years ago) link

I would like to believe David Gilmour thinks that Nick Cave is where Mason keeps his car collection.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 17:01 (twelve years ago) link

the lack of windows facing the sea is really confusing on that house!!!

♆ (gr8080), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 22:06 (twelve years ago) link

he made an album called Dark Side of the Moon.

His recliner is likely turned away from the TV too.

(Maybe it's facing…

The Wall?)

pplains, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 22:10 (twelve years ago) link

I'd love to find out but I don't want to meddle.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 22:11 (twelve years ago) link

He sits at the window sipping his cup of tea, holding a saucer full of secrets

(pplains that was pretty blooody good, you win)

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link

gilmour looks at that blank wall and thinks "how i wish, how i wish you were clear."

tylerw, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 22:17 (twelve years ago) link

The sun's reflection off the water blinds him momentarily as he mutters to himself 'Shine on you crazy diamond'

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 22:18 (twelve years ago) link

"Hey, Nick Cave! YOU'RE A WANKER!"

*runs like hell*

I am too.

Got around to listening to all the extra stuff on The Wall immersion and... they're interesting. The sound quality is of course better than the various Under Construction versions out there and I hadn't yet heard some of the band demos. Liking one of the early "Another Brick In The Wall" demos that's almost like a Pete Townshend acoustic number with this tremendous VCS3 sound in the front. Plus it's always interesting to hear Gilmour sing Waters' lines on "Comfortably Numb"
