The reason I think the interview is for real is simply because there's never any allusion to it being fake. To be satirical, it would have to make it clear with a disclaimer or something, seeing as it's on a respected fan site amongst genuine interviews. If it wasn't clear, Roger could sue on the grounds of misrepresentation or defamation - especially because he's ripping into so many celebrities.

It has to be for real :smoke:

And I haven't yet heard Phantom of the Opera, but I really want to now :(

I think it really could be satire, since upon reading it again, it seems to mesh almost too well.

Riva your avatar is awesome. Only an Australian would enjoy it though:thumb:

Yer thats another thing that bugged me with that interview, it just seemed so controlled.

[quote=bahamut_ali;13963560]And I haven't yet heard Phantom of the Opera, but I really want to now :([/quote]

I'd have to say that I'm with Waters when it comes to Andrew Lloyd Webber. Except for Jesus Christ Superstar, which I enjoy. Phantom of the Opera was annoying to me.

Okay, for some time I've been trying to get into Pink Floyd but I've never been able to. I've listened to Piper At The Gates Of Dawn and Dark Side Of The Moon. I usually like weird, spacey stuff but those albums never really did anything for me.

So any chance of me ever getting into PF or are they just not the type of band I can get into?

Well, considering that Piper and Dark Side are two of PF's completely different albums, then yes you could still probably get into Pink Floyd. It seems to me that you might enjoy The Wall more than any of the others I can think of, so give that a listen.

Will do. I've always been around people that are constant Pink Floyd lovers and I always sit there thinking, "what's the big deal?".

The Wall was the first one I heard. I saw the movie and just fell in love with it. It's good music if you pay attention to it and Waters is an amazing lyricist (self-titled best in england :lol:)

Or WYWH.

I didn't say WYWH because he was saying that he didn't like Dark Side as much. But I'd guess he might like Wish You Were Here if he enjoys the spacey stuff.

[i]Meddle[/i] may be his go? [b]Echoes[/b] has its "spacey" moments.

Yeah, echoes is a good idea.

If you ask me, this is a list of albums I would get.

Echoes
The Wall
Wish You Were Here
Dark Side Of The Moon
Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

Obviously he doesn't need to give the last two a listen.

I'd say go for [I]Obscured By Clouds[/I] and [I]A Saucerful Of Secrets[/I] too, since those albums seem to include elements of all of Floyd's later albums.

Ive been meaning to get Saucerful Of Secrets because I love Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun, are the other songs any good?

Yea, I think Saucer is a good album on the whole. The Let there be More Light, Remember a Day and the title track are good. And of course Jugband Blues, Syd's last contribution on one of their recordings.

To be honest I've never paid much attention to [I]Saucerful...[/I]

Although I really like watching the title track on [I]Live At Pompeii[/I].

I like the whole album. I like Seesaw and Coporal Clegg. I read in a interview with David Gilmour somewhere that he was asked what instruments could he play. He said a couple and then added that he played kazoo pretty well on Coporal Clegg.

[I]Jugband Blues[/I] is my favorite Pink Floyd song. [i]Saucerful...[/i] is to boring as a whole but some tracks are extremely effective if you listen to them seperately.

I feel that way sometimes, but it's not too long. So by the time I feel that way [I]Saucerful[/I] is nearly over. So it's not that bad.

live part of ummagumma is the best floyd album.

I need to put [I]Ummagumma[/I] on my list of albums to find. [I]Obscured By Clouds[/I], [I]Ummagumma[/I], [I]The Division Bell[/I], [I]Atom Heart Mother[/I], [I]More[/I], [I]Relics[/I] and the [I]Pulse[/I] cd are the other Pink Floyd albums I need to get.

edit: I forgot about the [I]Is There Anybody Out There?[/I] live album.

Oh my god I've got to change my avatar now! I hope you're happy about this ... :thumb:

The Wall live is pretty awesome to be honest, I really like how it begins with the guy speaking and then [I]In The Flesh[/I] cutting him out.

Live part of Ummagumma is not the best Floyd album, though it is good. I'd put at least 7 other albums above that one, and even the studio version of Ummagumma if the mood strikes me.

Ummagumma is another one Ive been looking out for. I've always been meaning to get the earlier stuff and ive already got Meddle to Final Cut, so now is a good time I guess :thumb:

Final Cut was far too Watery for me, if you get what I'm saying.

Set the Controls.... is friggin awesome, but the rest of the album drags a bit.

[quote=Frequently Tripping;13977922]Final Cut was far too Watery for me, if you get what I'm saying.[/quote]

Yeah, I get what your saying. But that's also one of the reasons why others, such as myself, like it.

I personally love the more Waters influenced stuff like Animals and The Wall. But I hated The Final Cut because it was boring, it was poetry set to minimilistic backing music.

Remember A Day definitely does not drag on. I think the title track could have been a bit shorter though.

Sorry if this is off-topic but to that guy who uploaded Echoes In The Garden (thanks heaps for that) Im going to burn them to CD but I don't know where to have CD1 end and CD2 start, do you know? I was just gonna have it so Dark Side + Echoes was CD2 and the rest CD1 because that does make sense and it does fit.

EDIT: Ah nevermind, I just did it that way anyway.
