gcreptile 10,684 Posted August 15, 2015 After 49 years, Pink Floyd have officially disbanded. (about three decades too late IMHO) So, did they break Sunny Van Bülow's record of 28 years in a permanent vegetative state? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dead in new year from a 'short illness;' then, always a notoriously private man, so this is good hiding his obvious ill health. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 11,769 Posted February 25, 2022 This one could've also gone in the counterculture thread... Times obit for Anthony Stern (wiki), British experimental filmmaker who was a part of Pink Floyd's inner circle. Obit gives his age as 77, death date as February 10th, and simply gives the cause as "after a long illness" 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevonDeathTrip 2,325 Posted October 4, 2022 Roger Waters, who has skirted around the frayed edges of sanity for a few years now, claims to be on a Ukrainian "kill list" in his latest tirade about the injustices of Western imperialism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not holding my breath on this one, fairly sure that three of his four ex-wives are still around and on the odd occasion they've seen fit to comment on his personality they've outed themselves as more likely assassins than any Ukrainian (who'd likely save their bullets for Russians attempting to fire on them). Coming up his first anniversary with wife #5, btw, who'd previously served him as a chaffeur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her lyrics are shit and Dave Gilmour's "singing" is even worse than Rod Stewart's! They should just fuck off and retire so we can have a permanent break from their warmongering bullshit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make of that what you will. Nick Mason was at the Guild event last night but for the first time he seemed a little bit unsteady and seemed to have a slight tremor. Voice was softer too. I wonder if he has the early stages of Parkinson's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,437 Posted February 6 Roger Waters' late life ranting himself into a business cul-de-sac continues.
