New at Pinkfloydfan

Hi everyone - I decided to join the forum after seeing the (sort of) Pink Floyd reunion at Live 8. I've been an ebb-and-flow Floyd fan since the early '70s and hate the fact that I never got to see them perform live. So if anyone out there has lovely memories of early PF concerts/experiences I'd love to hear about them. The first PF song I remember hearing was "Careful With That Axe Eugene" when I was 14 or 15 and I was intrigued to say the least. After DSOTM I was officially hooked (and to this day I still get goosebumps when I hear the guitar solo on "Money").

So that's my little story. I hope to make some Floyd friends!

Welcome DeeGee! . If you see an overweight bloke wearing a white jump suit, you may be fooled into thinking its Elvis...it will in fact be one of the moderators who will ask you to read the rules and guidelines! Have a nice day y'all.

Welcome DG, glad to have you with us.

Several people here were lucky enough to see the boys live in their heyday. Whether they can be "arsed" to share their memories is another matter, however.

Enjoy the ride!

Hi, DeeGee, and welcome to APFFN! There are quite a few of us old geezers around, and while it isn't about live performances, I recommend the Dinner Bites Diner thread for a war story or two. There's also a couple of concert threads you may find interesting.

That all said, please take a minute to read our Forum Rules & Guidelines, and we'll see you on the boards!

I am weight-proportional-to-height, I'll have you know, and the leisure suit is mauve.

I hope that's not a poke at me, Strattypants!

Oh yeah, I can tell I'm going to like it here already. Thanks for all the howdies and info everybody!

The King never wore mauve!

Only because he never separated his bleach laundry.

Today's award goes to Cheese, for getting the words "strattypants", "arsed", and "poked" all in the same post, all without saying anything remotely obscene.

It's a gift.
