Last photo I saved (to be sent to my Aries friend who did exactly as the meme predicted):
Some factoids about the Semen and Gay Uncle saga that I see people kind of mess up on:
- There are technically three iterations of the saga: Semen and Gay Uncle, Gayvy Jones, and the Davy Jones T-Boy Swag Voter Fraud. - Semen and Gay Uncle had to do with a light-hearted joke about Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel being gay getting taken into debate by a blog that wrote toddler headcanons for Michael Nesmith of the band The Monkees. - Gayvy Jones had to do with a similar light-hearted joke about Davy Jones of The Monkees being taken into debate by a blog that not only was anti-abortion, but wrote rpf of straight Paul Simon mpreg with (out lesbian) actress Lily Tomlin. - While both scenarios have their similarities, both blogs are NOT the same person, and all evidence points to them being TWO DIFFERENT people.
Will add more additions as need be.
remember when people on here were really into steely dan for some reason
Roger Waters has confirmed he’s working on a re-working of ‘The Dark Side of the Moon. In an interview with, ‘BERLINER ZEITUNG , he said, ““The new concept is meant to reflect on the meaning of the work, to bring out the heart and soul of the album,” he says, “musically and spiritually. I’m the only one singing my songs on these new recordings, and there are no rock and roll guitar solos.” 🎧

November 2021, there was news that Roger Waters was back in the studio working on some new projects. In a recent interview, Roger confirmed that he has been working on a new re-recording of Pink Floyd’s 1973 classic album The Dark Side Of The Moon, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year with a brand new Dolby Atmos mix and box set release. 🎧

NEW BANNER ! My photoshop skills are very rudimentary and it shows. In any case, I've had this image in my head for months if not years and now that I've actually done it, it makes me laugh way more than it should...
I'll probably be changing my url soon, as well. It's not that it's irrelevant but I'm pretty sure no one gets the reference 😐
reblog and put in the tags what you think will fix you

There’s something very charming about the albums musicians make when they reach old age. There’s so much more quiet contemplation of life, a matured musical expression, a confidence in their musical identity, a knowledge that they need not put on the biggest brightest show, a soft dedication to the muse.
Albums like David Bowie’s Blackstar or The Next Day, Neil Young’s Prairie Wind, Roger Waters’ Is This The Life We Really Want, Pink Floyd’s Endless River, to name a few, exude a condensed energy of their life experiences and musical inclinations that have been sharpened and honed their entire lives. These kind of albums are so very special. I’m glad my favorite musicians continue to make music when they get old, because it has just as much meaning as it did when they were younger.

— DIDN’T THEY DO WELL T-SHIRT — 🎸
‘Didn’t They Do Well’ was a catchphrase from then popular British ‘The Generation Game’ show, produced by the BBC, in which four teams of people from the same family, but different generations, competed to win prizes. The programme was first broadcast in 1971 and ran until 1982, and again from 1990 until 2002.
Early in 1973 David Gilmour was snapped wearing this red ‘Didn’t They Do Well’ t-shirt in a series of poses whilst strumming a guitar and twiddling the knobs at his home recording studio in London.
