Pink Floyd

I’ve loved this band for years.  Their guitarist, David Gilmour, has some of the best riffs and chops I am yet to hear.  I’ve seen them live twice back in the early 90′s.  Yes people were passing joints around and offering smal squares of LSD to put on your tongue.  I was in my early 20′s and a little TOO open minded.  I never really got into that lifestyle though … I just genuinely loved the music.  I recently heard that a member of the band passed away and it hit me hard.  That’s like the death of an era.  Just like the Beatles only have two left, so Pink Floyd now are less.  I love their song: “Comfortably Numb.”  Everytime I hear it I go into a trance.

Any Floyd fans out there?

    My hubby really likes Pink Floyd. I never disliked them, but they were never my cup of tea, I guess.

    Oh I know. Sarah doesn’t get most their stuff like I do. She loves that “We don’t need no education …” tune and in fact, it’s her ringtone whenever the sub system calls LOL.
