Sorry to hear about your band, KP. I started a tribute thread for promotes.

My first PF album was 'The Wall', and I was only 12 when it was released, and 13 when I bought it. My next one was DSOTM, and I was totally hooked after that. These guys got me through high school. I'm eternally indebted.
Richard Wright was a great and WAY underrated keyboardist. Oh well, I could ramble on, but you know where I'm coming from.
Glad I could do the promote. I did a whole shitload of them, so I doubt it will add much to your vote total. However, that wasn't the point. Again, I think you know what I mean.

Thanks for the promote. I guess we're no longer 10 years old when the band was doing well (for you maybe the age was more like 20 years old, but that's cool).

Pink Floyd's First Music Video - Arnold Layne
From Wiki:
The song's title character is a transvestite whose primary pastime is stealing women's clothes and undergarments from washing lines. Some believe that "Arnold Layne" was actually based on a real person, and that he routinely stole underwear from the mothers of Barrett and bassist Roger Waters during their childhood days in Cambridge.
However, despite finding a place in the Top 20, the song's unusual transvestism theme attracted the ire of Radio London, which deemed the song too far-removed from "normal" society for its listeners before eventually banning it from radio airplay altogether.
Producer Norman Smith wanted the band to re-record the Joe Boyd-produced song after they had signed up with EMI. While Waters and keyboardist Richard Wright were willing to do this, Barrett, on the other hand, was entirely satisfied with the existing studio cut, and argued against recording another version.
A black and white promotional film of "Arnold Layne" was made the same year, and featured members of Pink Floyd dressing up a mannequin before showing it around a beach. Recently, an alternative promotional film was unearthed, which featured the young Floyd goofing around in a forest and in front of a church. It is also the only known footage of Syd Barrett lip synching to the song.
Pink Floyd - Time - Live from P*U*L*S*E
This is Dave Gilmour and his backup band featuring Nick Mason and Richard Wright....it's NOT The Pink Floyd.
Sorry, if Roger isn't there, it ain't real in my opinion. Your opinions may vary of course....
