About Me

Hello, this profile has been dedicated to Pink Floyd! Yeah, i figured to make this entire profile about the entire band, rather then just one of their MANY amazing albums. Roger Waters was a primary creative force in Pink Floyd from 1968 to 1983. He first met Syd Barrett, who would become the band's lead singer and guitarist, during his school days when both attended a Saturday art class. He moved to London to study architecture at Regent Street Polytechnic and there formed a band with drummer Nick Mason and keyboardist Rick Wright; he played bass and sang. Barrett joined them, forming Pink Floyd. David Gilmoure is one of the most popular Guitarist in the world. He played an acoustic. Gilmour also has a vast collection of Strats and Teles, including a 1954(The first year of production) with the serial .. is 001.(Although it is not the first production model.) Nick Mason is the Dummer, and is the effects player. he would reel this little lever, and it would make some of the effects that you would hear in their music. Another Big part of the group was Rick Wright, he played the keyboard. He was really talented, he was a good impact in their music. Roger keith (Syd) Barrett is a very talented guitarist, he was also the lead singer for awhile, until he got his mental disorder, he kept experimenting with LSD and became mentally unstable.and don't forget to join my group! http://groups.myspace.com/PINKFLOYDFUCKINROCKS
