A lot of those geezer bands are just pathetic. The Stones are coming to a town about two hrs away from me and people look at me like they want to lynch me when I say that they are one step above "suck" and that I wouldn't go if you gave me a ticket. They haven't done anything original since about 1977. If you start me up, I can't get no satisfaction!!!! I hear the same 4 songs on the radio and I want to pound Mick with a stick. Unfortunately, I suspect their early stuff had merit, but I can't take his singing.

Pink Floyd was my all-time fav band until I discovered Phish. Phish are the greatest band ever. I saw Gilmour and friends at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal on the Division Bell tour soon after seeing Phish 4 times and the show was awesome, but I got the feeling that the spark had gone. It seemed kinda scripted. That being said, Gilmour is one of the smoothest guitarists going (On the Turning Away live- that solo is a fine example why he is a god) and a bad day with PF is better than a good day with almost any other band. Their stuff since The Wall has seemed spottier than before it.
