SCREW ROGER WATERS

He is just a human man, flawed and yet a genius. But as i always say, every genius is a little ecentic. And there's alot we don;t know to why he is the way he is. Just enjoy the music i say. Shine on...

I agree that Roger is a genius (songwriting and concepts), but he is hardly a great musician. Dave played bass on roughly half of Floyd's albums, and Roger can't play the fretless bass (have you ever seen him play it on Hey You?)

I think Roger has mellowed through the years (as is evidenced by his softer tone on the recent VH-1 shows on the band and The Wall. To me, the band was always best when all were contributing - Rick and Dave write excellent music together, and Roger's lyrics and concepts can't be beat!

True, Roger isn't the greatest musician. I should correct myself, I meant great songwriter. Sorry about that

Is it possible that because you care wether or not Roger is an asshole, you may have taken the whole fan thing to far?

Perhaps you're right NNJ, but discussion is discussion, whether or not the topic is intelligent. :smile:

No offense there Freak, but I just aprreciate the music and could care less what Rog, Dave, Nick, and Rick do in their spare time.

c'mon guys! how can you judge someone? what harm is being done to you from the charachter of an artist? the whole on-going discussions on their characters is nonsense.
I mean what is the point in talkin' about someone you (and it may be ONLY you or maybe thousands of you) don't like in person?

terminalfrost said that Dave played ass for roughly half the albums. I know he plays the fretless bass but HALF? Name them and where did you get the information from?

I can't remember were I heard this (probably ½ year ago)but I heard that Gilmour did pretty much of the bass...he was more efficient and did more work as to speak...I don't know if it's true but doubts are high.
:grin:
