Yeah right whatever. But what do you think of the later Floyd albums?

Floyd is heavy man. I mean, reeaaaal heavy.
I picture Sebastian lying in his dorm room bed late at night with headphones on, at the tail end of of a particularly intense mushroom trip, staring at the Dark Side of the Moon poster on his ceiling and listening to Shine On You Crazy Diamond, while a tear slowly runs down his cheek.
I flipped on PBS the other night, and I caught the tail end of an Aussie Pink Floyd concert video. You know - Aussie Pink Floyd, the most successful Pink Floyd tribute band ever, the one that played for David Gilmour at his 50th birthday party? I learned all this during the interminable pledge breaks, which were actually slightly less painful than the concert itself.
I do give Gilmour major props for organizing a 50th birthday party at which the entertainment is a tribute band to him! I can only aspire to such narcissism.
