An interesting question: Being THE fan.

Post by Syd.LSD »

Do u consider joself being pink floyd's fan?
Do u feel addiction to it?
Do u consider joself as one of the biggest PF fans ever born?
Do u feel some chords being touched in jo heart when u read "Pink Floyd"?
The same with "Syd Barrett"?
Dont u think theese are magical word combinations?

I believe i am the most crazy PF fan in the whole world. I think that no one feels the same when the crystal opens at earls court or when bass guitar enters on echoes at pompeii or when barrett sings Oberon Miranda and Titania... or when... etc. etc.

What do u think of it?

Hey! Shall I add to my nickname "the great"?... :)
The Great Syd. Sounds nice to me :)
Just a joke.

I really thought here I would find many people of that kind. Or am I crazy?

You've found us... the beauty of this place is that you don't have to explain, justify, or define the boundaries of your Floydianism. I'm sure that each and every one of us is their biggest fan; It's understood, on Neptune, and it's bigger than words...

I don't think anyone can claim to be one of the biggest floyd fans born, with so many of us on this forum alone there would be no justification

Personally i LOVE pink floyd, can't say i share the same passion for Syd Barret that a lot of others feel though

I have been through many "floyd" phases in my life, times when i havent listened to anyone else, times when i was in a band playing their music wishing i was dave gilmour, listening to the albums non-stop and annalising it bit by bit. Nowadays my love for them has wained a little, i still very much love this band but dont often listen to them much, ive had rogers albums on more than floyds, they havent done anything new for almost ten years now so there isnt really anything to keep my enthusiasm going but they have been a big part of my life for many years but i am not so hung up on them now as i used to be !

When it comes to being the biggest Pink Floyd fan, it would be impossible, because everyones love is different for them. I love them because NO OTHER BAND ON EARTH is like them, or ever will be. And that's what makes them one of a kind. I have many things of theirs and everytime I talk to someone I know, they'll say "I heard some Floyd the other day and thought about you", and one time a girl saw a picture of them in a magazine and cut them out and made me a picture :D I'm probably the biggest fan around here, but I have rubbed it off on some others and they like them now too. And nothing makes me happier than when i'm driving down the road and one of their songs come on :D
