    Cmon Roger Waters? You could do better.

    His live shows are something else. Granted he isn't much to look at....an ugly Richard Gere somebody once said. But his solo albums are untouchable ( IMO ). Not a Pink Floyd fan though (neither is he now) - except for Final Cut, which was really Waters' first Solo album. Actually, I bet you're not really interested in any of this are you John? I'm just wittering to myself.

    Actually I'm a *huge* fan of Pink Floyd and Roger Waters. I'm just saying he's got a face like a can of worms. :)

      You gave me Rush to love, and tonight I was listening to one of my favourite Canadian songs; Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed this song. Thank you Canada, and thank you Crash Test Dummies - a song that's within the reach of my vocal register.

        Yikes! That and Patio Lanterns are on my top 10 list of most despised, vile, putrid schmaltzy songs of all time. Now some of the old Max Webster stuff was excellent; Kim Mitchell on his own is like David Lee Roth on his own without Van Halen.

          That's a bit unfair. You're right about Rush though. Thanks to them, technical proficiency, drum solos and sci-fi concept albums almost seem like a good idea.

          Thanks to the band Yes we had irrefutable proof of that long before Rush came along. :)

                            Oooh I was at a friends place about a year ago and him and his bandmates were watching a rush tour dvd, it was excellent! The giant rotating drum kit was pretty cool as well.
