Pink Floyd Live 8 Idiocy!

topic posted Sat, July 2, 2005 - 3:55 PM by 
I joined this tribe because of today's Live 8 show. Pink Floyd and Roger Waters reunite after 30 years of bad blood, and fucking MTV goes to break halfway through their last song (Comfortably Numb).

Assfaces!

    How does this not surpise me? I'll bet it was in the middle of the first amazing lead. They've tried to REWRITE rock history with their SOUL-LESS garbage that they program people with.

    I just hate all the fucking bands that are hand picked by record companies that they try to turn in to the latest fad. Boy, if the shit they play off as music is anything close to what people are really listening to, we're really in trouble. What ever happened to the FUCKING PASSION???!!

      It was pre-empted by a commercial break.

        I'm sure they'll be happy to sell you the DVD with popups and ads for only $99.95. But that's how the music world is anymore, they don't even do charity work unless it's good publicity.

          Pink Floyd went way downhill after Syd Barrett...

          but MTV still sucks....

            Agreed. I think Syd kind of revolutionized their sound and made them such a rich part of rock history. I have all of Syd's stuff, but only about 1/2 of the PF stuff -- BUT: Maybe you can help me locate a Barrett track. I wanted to get the studio version of 'Vegetable Man' on CD. Have you been able to locate this on CD ever?? I just can never find it and the version I have is really scratched up.

            any guesses?

              i have a good quality version of vegetable man on mp3

              unfortunately i am in a semi-homeless situation for the next couple weeks and my computer isn't hooked up to the internet... so it'll have to wait until a couple weeks at least... i should have a new place by then... make sure to remind me in a couple weeks...
