As I have aged, I really have become a fan of their music and lyrics. Headed to a Black Jacket Symphony cover of Dark Side of the Moon in a few weeks. Hope its worth the time and money.

I know you would love this timeless classic. It's a revival baby!!
One of my all-time faves....going to catch Brit Floyd at Red Rocks in June, can't believe I've never seen them yet.
The Dark Side of the Moon is a masterpiece and monument for prog rock.
That said, their discography is pretty bloated, especially past the 80's.
I actually think Rush is overall the better band in terms of influence.

You need an OT for Pink Floyd?
I think your being sarcastic but after Kongs response to my age poll who knows?
June huh. My wife and I are driving to Utah in late June. Maybe we catch the show on the way out or back.
Maybe. But I think Rush can sound like several other bands if you're not a polished fan of Rush.
But no one and I mean no one sounds like Floyd other than Floyd.
And I think I like the Wall better.
Great band. Do an incredible job recreating a Pink Floyd concert.

Yes, there's a video on YouTube that links the album to the movie. Some of the connections seem to align but others you really have to stretch to see the link.
He sure does..
Everyone knows the rules if it isn’t sports related even if its the obvious..
I think the actual date is Jun 5 .... bonus night in Colorado Springs, June 6 - maybe I'll make it a doubleheader
common sense doesn't tell you that Pink Floyd is an OT? You have to be told that? Yikes.
Dang. That doesn't aline with my. But I have some free time maybe Ill just drive out and see it myself. I love solo road trips.
Does common curiosity mean anything to you ? or you just want to be stubborn at your age.
I bet you won't be disappointed....I'd listen to almost anything at Red Rocks.
Looks like they are in KC early June too...

Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here are my favorite Pink Floyd records. They would be in my Top 10 of all time. I like most of The Wall (Comfortably Numb is favorite song by them period) but yeah the album as a whole is kinda bloated. I do like some of the Syd Barrett era and post Waters but DSOTM and WYWH are the best imo
Australian Pink Floyd coming to Omaha in April
Have you listened to Division Bell? It has some good stuff.
LOL what does curiosity have to do with OT or no OT? your reaching again. And yes I can be stubborn at my age, particularly with stupid takes.
I listened to Animals pretty much non-stop for almost a year. It was my daily dose. That was a rough year.
To be honest I haven’t but I’ll get around to it lol
I’d really like to check it out and Gilmour’s On an Island. There are albums by them I don’t think I’ve listened to which is crazy since as a guitarist myself I think David Gilmour is such a tasteful player! He has fantastic tone and phrasing.
I stumbled across this beauty a few years ago. Slow but the slide guitar (or whatever you call it) is worth the wait in the end. Song about aging.
took me a bit to get into that album but it's got some character, that's for sure.
LOL. Soooooo are you implying that I may be "overly happy and full of joy? "
Not even close bud!
Dude!? In no universe is Rush more influential than Pink f’n Floyd. The Floyd pioneered the concept album, sold 50 million copies of The Dark Side of the Moon (alone), and turned syncing it with The Wizard of Oz into a cultural phenomenon. Their Prism logo? It’s on T-shirts at every crappy mall kiosk in the world.
Rush is awesome—they’ve sold over 40 million albums (total) and are probably more technically proficient—but it’s not even close. Floyd defined rock as art, transcended music, and became a global icon.
Shine on, you crazy diamond.
Simmer down. Music is subjective and people have different tastes. It’s okay.
