In another topic Mosespa made a comment about Floyd being referred to as ''Him'' which reminded me of an incident that happened recently...
A few months ago I took part in a pub quiz and they had a picture round and to my surprise there was a picture of Gilmour, but when the guy read out the answers later he said ''Pink Floyd'', naturally i contested this and the guy changed the answer but the guy on the table next to me was disagreeing stating that he had ''his Wish You Were Here CD'' and also one that he referred to as ''having lots of beds on it''. Anyone else come across anything similar?
Pink Floyd, remember him?

Some people just don't get it. They make me sick. One of my best friends who I am in a band with likes punk rock, ses pistols, small sticky fingers (i think) and stuff like that. It is a shame not everybody can be in the club and discover great things about themselves through the music of pink floyd!! If anybody is Pink it is us listeners!

"Pink Floyd, oh yeah, he was one of those 70s dudes...didn't he go out with that chick...what was her name...Roxy Music?"
No, I haven't heard it...just my imagination talking.
I guess all the ignorants who refer to Pink Floyd as one person really surprise me. Never, ever, even before I knew much about PF did I EVER for one minute think it was one person. Maybe I was just ahead of the curve.

I used the lyrics from Time - not only cuz they were good lyrics but since it was one of PF's better known songs I figured someone would pick up that it was a PF song. I actually had a pretty cool English instructor who liked PF, she actually recognized the name Roger Waters.simpledumbpilot wrote:Cool! what lyrics did you use?Piper wrote:once i used lyrics from Dark Side of The Moon for a poetry recital thing in my AP English class...

I don't know many people who know Pink Floyd but some of my friends say it's Pink Fluid which drives me crazy. Why do they have to show me their stupidity in something like this?!
But yeah, it's obvious when people don't know what they're talking about. In some record stores there is those salesmans who think they know something about (for example) Pink Floyd but actually they don't have a clue about the band, maybe they have sometimes heard ABITW pt.II or Money but that's all.
