Yes, GDub#1, Peter is correct! Here is a hint for the final piece of the puzzle---Jokers Wild, 2nd incarnation.

I'm looking at a picture of Dave and Ginger (very attractive!)taken in 1976, holding their daughter Alice (looks like Alice is about 2 or 3 months old)....Alice has definitely got Dave's lips!!

Peter Gilmour played bass in Joker's Wild in 1966.
As you can tell, I love my PF Encyclopedia!

Let's have someone else take a shot at a question, since it's pretty much been between Stratman and myself for the last couple rounds... say, GeeDub#1. I think she deserves to get the next question, because she thought up the Peter Gilmour connection. And without that, I wouldn't have been able to find him in the PF Encyclopedia.

So... shoot away, GilmourWhore... that is, if Stratman's cool with it.

Go ahead DaFloyd, take the stage. Obviously, the Gilmour-babe is not interested. Give us your best shot!

Thx a bunch, DaFloydFan!

How 'bout that guy? Dredges this thread back up, gets us all "amped", then ...........WEASELS OUT! (j/k)

OK, I'm taking over. We've discussed lately Roger's fondness for skewering people he knows in his lyrics, directly or indirectly. Question: In ATD, at the end of "What God Wants, pt 1" there is a backwards message. Who is this message for? Bonus points if you know what the message says.

The message is for Stanley Kubrick but I don't know (and don't care) what it says.

The BBC Omnibus series had a programme about the Apollo 11 mission. Pink Floyd provided live music . What was the name of that BBC programme?

I am afraid I cannot answer the last question, and prefer to not search online for it...Although I did sift through 55 pages of trivia, I decided to post in the hopes that this topic was not touched yet.

On which show in late 1967, did Syd refuse to lip-sync as he stared blankly while the track played?

BONUS:

On this show, a glazed stare was Barret's only response to interview questions posed by the host?

The answer to Da_Floyd_Fan's question is: the title of the program was "What If It's Just Green Cheese?"

And to answer charizmapf28's question: Syd did both on the Pat Boone Show on November 5th, 1967.

The Pat Boone show is correct...for the bonus question...!!

However, there is a different answer other than the Pat Boone show for the first question..

I think the show he wouldn't lip-sync on was "American Fruitstand", with Dick Clark.

Oh crap - I was wrong. I could have sworn that it said that in Saucerful of Secrets, but I read it wrong.
