Members way2fat Posted September 15, 2008 Members Share Posted September 15, 2008 Thanks for the post CG. Saw Dark Side of the Moon in San Francisco back in the 70s at the Cow Palace before Wish You were Here came out. First set was Wish You Were Here and Shine on You Crazy Diamond. Second set was Dark Side; encore was Echoes for 45 minutes during which Richard Wright transported me to an alternate universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tim_7string Posted September 17, 2008 Members Share Posted September 17, 2008 A very underrated musician. Some of the coolest, trippiest, most awesome keyboards of all time in rock music. The radio stations around here have been playing "Us and Them" and "The Great Gig In The Sky" a lot since his passing. Very appropriate. UAT made me emotional before, now it makes me weepy knowing the man playing those beautiful chords is gone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and I HATE you for having seen them! One of the few bands that I really regret missing seeing live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
