Re: Syd Barrett dead, age 60.

If anyone's interested, the BBC is soliciting comments here.

Be nice to contribute to accuracy in media, no?

So long Syd. Light up that night sky. We'll be joining you there.

I'll never listen to Wish You Were Here the same way again.

I was never his biggest fan musically, but I am deeply saddened all the same. May peace be with you Syd. You have provided so many people joy with your music. Shine on!

Screaming through the starlit sky
Travelling by telephone.
Hey ho, here we go
Ever so high.

But I can you.

This makes me feel better somehow. I guess he's ok....

Re: Syd Barrett dead, age 60.

I guess I'm more shocked than anything. I wasn't expecting this at all. It just caught me off guard. Still not sure if I'm fully comprehending this yet.

I never said anything about him being a genius. Whether he was or not is besides the point. He's gone now. It's shocking and saddening that he is actually gone.
