Hi! I'm new to Pink Floyd, and I wanted to ask you if you could recomend some interview or video?
I would definitely steer you to Pink Floyd’s Live at Pompeii first! It’s a great film they made in 1972 right before Dark Side was released. It has performances interspersed with footage of them recording in the studio and has interviews as well! You can find most of the clips on YouTube I believe.
I would also recommend watching all of the members’ (sans Syd) interviews for John Edginton’s Syd Barrett documentary, as well as the documentary itself. You can watch these on YouTube as well and Edginton has posted the full versions of them with info you don’t get from the actual documentary. Here’s Roger’s, Rick’s, and David’s: https://youtu.be/hI0lFi1JFHQ https://youtu.be/URbiyWY-szY https://youtu.be/RQhxEpXEaNA
Hope this was helpful!
Mens fashion in the 1960s was just
*wears the stripiest pants ever*
*wears an 18th century style coat*
*wears circulator glasses*
forever and always thinking of that one video where the Stones were taking turns kissing a girl on the forehead for the press and they asked Charlie to do it and he shook his head and said “love is a much more deeper thing than that. it’s not flippant to be sold away on the celluloid.”

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.
