Thanks.

If anyone lives in an area where you get Chicago radio stations, check out 97.9 WLUP. Every Wednesday night at 10, they play an hour of just PF.

an hour?! i was in chicago not long ago and i was on that station and i heard floyd and after the song ended i changed the station!

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 06:12 PM

we have a station down here that plays the beatles every morning for an hour, and on Sundays, they play 3 straight hours of all beatles & beatle related material (Covers, outtakes, interviews, etc.), and they have some interesting stuff, i dont know how they get hold of it.

But i dont know if i could take floyd on the radio if it werent the whole album all the way through...i cant stand just listening to random songs by them.

That sounds like a cool station.

I'm disappointed in you, you Eagle fan. :angry: ...Hopefully you're not a Patriots fan too.

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 06:27 PM

I hate the patriots, but i won 40 bucks on a bet last week on them so that was pretty sweet...but i think their going to kill the eagles in jacksonville, though we deserve it more, theyve had their moment - i mean 3 moments

but the station is alright, except the morning show sucks hard with John DeBello. Alot of really famous musicians knows him, but everybody other then that hates him, even the co-anchor

They really play an equal mix of all their bands unlike other stations tha have favorites...No more FLoyd then Zeppelin, or Zeppelin then Cream, and so on.

magicbus 01-26-2005 06:31 PM

1. DSOTM and WYWH
2. Meddle
3. Ummagumma
4. The Wall
5. Animals

xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx 01-26-2005 06:45 PM

Can someone tell me more about Syd Barrett?

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 07:08 PM

Somebody can defintaly get in depth with him here, but all you should know is he started with floyd as a guitarist and songwriter, and the band defintaly wouldnt have got anywere without him, but he sort of went crazy in a few years, like refusing to play in the middle of concerts and had some really insane lyrics the band couldnt accept, so he was simply not picked up for a show one night, and replaced with gilmour.

Id personally like to know more about him too, since i only own 1 album from his years

[QUOTE=Otherside]Actually a² + b² = c²[/QUOTE]

I was referring the the linear equation of a line in general form, but that's true also.

magicbus 01-26-2005 07:14 PM

y=mx+b?

And what brought up math?

lunch998 01-26-2005 07:15 PM

[QUOTE=magicbus]y=mx+b?

No, that's slope-intercept form. General form is Ax+By=C.

magicbus 01-26-2005 07:20 PM

Oh I never learned that one.

Shazzam 01-26-2005 07:24 PM

What are your guy's (& gals) favorite Floyd solo's?

For me it'd have to be:

1. Comfortably Numb (I enjoy both of them equally)
2. Another Brick In the Wall Pt.2
3. Time

lunch998 01-26-2005 07:26 PM

SOYCD(Parts 6-9)
Dogs

I'm also going to cheat and call the riff at the end of Sheep a solo.

Otherside 01-26-2005 07:27 PM

A=½·h+b¹+b²

I hate math.

My favorite solo is from Hey You. Not my favorite song, I like alot more than that one, but the solo has so much fu[COLOR=White]ckin[/COLOR]g emotion. It's euphoric.

Shazzam 01-26-2005 07:30 PM

Yeah, the tabs for that solo are only a handfull of notes, but if you listen to it, it has the depth and emotion of an entire symphony orchestra.

There's Gilmour for ya'......

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 07:33 PM

Shine on you crazy diamond I-II, and having a hard *** time remembering the 3rd solo, though the tone is incredible

Comfortably Numb (my next one)
Echoes - intro and outro
Money and Time
High Hopes and Marooned

all timeless

HempKnight 01-26-2005 07:34 PM

i love the solo(s) in echoes. that whole song is just amazing

Johnny B. Good 01-26-2005 07:38 PM

I like the Comfortably Numb solos best

magicbus 01-26-2005 07:42 PM

SOYCD, Any Colour You Like, Careful With That Ax, Eugene.

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 07:43 PM

echoes could be the greatest song EVER made, i wouldnt doubt it. Its perfect. I couldnt name one thing to add or take from that song to make it better, but i think its great for also being the only song to represent the entire triligy of Pink Floyds sound. It seems that song overviewed all of floyds previous, current, and future sound and style in certain parts of that song.

and god christ i cant get enough of that tone

I got a Boss Cs-3 pedal just to try to match it. Its the same on he used, but updated, and about 100 bucks i think. still - incredible

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 07:46 PM

and i have to add on the subject of solos, Any Colour you Like is probably the funnest song to play of any song i know about. Phasers, Wawas, effects everywere and just simple, innovative pleasure. What a great song...

magicbus 01-26-2005 07:46 PM

Yea man the tone is what I love about it. Same with SOYCD. Amazing.

Shazzam 01-26-2005 07:48 PM

I had my eye on it for almost 10 minutes.

Actually, according to the counter in the post, it's reply #2001.

Yea, what can I say, I got out-played.

Shazzam 01-26-2005 07:50 PM

Does anyone know how to emulate the tone from the ABITW Pt. 2 solo?

I can't even come close with all my effects and amps. The best way to describe it would be 'syrup' like.

magicbus 01-26-2005 07:54 PM

Use the bridge pickup, and compressor helps a lot. You get that bassy tone.
