The hot takes and unpopular opinions

@Bones some of them are really good, others less so, sometimes I think they are looking to react rather than listening to the music (Killing in the name of) but overall I think they do a good job.

Bovidae

He would have more cred if the video showed the right PF album cover.

Off stage Dave Gilmour, Nick Mason and especially Roger Waters are total bellends. Rick Wright was okay.

You know them? Genuine question.

Snowy

One of my flatmates in PNG loved PF but couldn't listen to them when we were there. Too many unexpected and strange sounds at times, and he always thought someone was trying to break in - again. I have never worked out why they were "unexpected" given that he was a huge fan.

Bovidae

It's a pity that David Gilmour never toured NZ like Roger Waters did. But his "Remember That Night" and "Live at Pompeii" concert DVDs/blu-rays are fantastic.

From the first concert at the Royal Albert Hall:

@Snowy No, I don't.

@sparky I don't think that I have ever seen them interviewed. Pretty reclusive bunch as I understand it.

What makes them bellends? A lot of famous people go that way, but just haven't seen that from them.

@Snowy The series "Brian Johnson: A Life on the Road" had an episode on Nick Mason. Essentially Mason was showing off his vast car collection, including a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO. That is the most valuable collectable car in the world.

I like Brian Johnson - he was good on Top Gear.

Doesn't really answer my question though - what makes Mason a bellend? Because he collects, and likes, cars? Because he can afford expensive ones? Did he just come across as a prick?

Pink Floyd are shit

@NTA Been waiting for that. From memory, honey agrees with you.

@Snowy I was just replying to your comment that they aren't regularly interviewed. I've seen plenty, and Waters is never short of an opinion.

Cheers, I'll have a look. Have seen Waters, don't remember him being any worse than other performers, but it was a while ago.

My mates have seen Waters. Great performer but whinged between every song about Trump. The other two seem much more down to earth.

You’re spelling Aerosmith and Dire Straits completely wrong.

I used to think that but have come around too them ... probably a combo of people thrashing their albums back in the day and then going all ...

To be fair I could go the rest of my life, never hear a single track off ‘Dark side of the moon’ and be pretty happy.
