eraser_tr Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Heard it on the radio driving down to work.....today really does deserve to be called black monday. Quote
alex70b Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Here goes on of the one of the musicians that made Great music. Pink Floyd's Music will be his memorial for ever. RIP. Quote
PaperArtillery Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Wow...I mean, his death isn't really in the same category as poor old Syd's...but still. Maybe, just maybe, Rogers and Gilmour might find it appropriate to forgive each other for a bit and do something for their late keyboardist. Floyd forever, and rest in peace, Mr Wright. "And I am not frightened of dying. Any time will do; I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it—you've gotta go sometime." - Great Gig in the Sky, Dark Side of the Moon [1974] Quote
Bulldog Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 What a bummer. RIP Rick, and thanks for all the good times I've had listening to your music. Time to throw "Meddle" on and hit repeat.... Quote
eraser_tr Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 How is it any different? Cancer got them both. Appropriate lyrics, the local classic rock station played the song upon the news. Quote
