astronomy domine
 

is an amazing song

concur

early pink floyd fucking rules

not nearly their best song by a long shot
they were so much better post-syd
(note to all who read: don't start a pink floyd thread and NOT expect an attack by myself)

there's no laughing man in yr sig.

I'm so disappointed. :(

not just any man! roger waters from the pink floyd, of course.

hence my profound disappointment. :(

fuck you! :)

that's the spirit, tiger.

welcome back.

this is such a good song, one of the best psychedelic songs. I just recently heard the mono version and it got even better ! You can more clearly hear syd's echo slide playing. I love the fact that it has such a vague verse and chorus progression. Gives it more of a psychedelic atmosphere to it.

It's one of my favourite Pink Floyd songs.

astronomy domine used to be my favourite pink floyd song
i think careful with that axe eugene is probably my favourite though..esp. the one on ummagumma and some of the versions on youtube.

i love this song in bootlegs.

that screech waters does is incredible. and the bass building up to it just before he screeches. fucking excellent.

great song indeed...what the fuck happened to david gilmour? he used to be so good...

he aged terribly.

one of my favorite pink floyd songs. i prefer pink floyd with syd, but that's probably because i listened to syd before pink floyd (aside from the popular songs like money and the wall) and i love syd's solo stuff. i do like pink floyd post syd barrett, too.

nope, they werent in my opinion. piper is the only floyd album i listen to. dark side is the most overrated album ever. and no its not floyds best song but i never said that! interstellar overdrive comes close to that title

I love the version on Ummagumma.

I too prefer post-Syd Pink Floyd, but I remember you said you loved The piper at the gates of dawn not too long ago.

syd barrett >> roger waters

sorry if the truth hurts

i'm sorry but i just can't bring myself to agree. i would list all the reasons why but it's tedious and i'm not feeling up to it.

ha! here is me taking the piss out of all those astrology, astronomy threads and we end up finding out what side of the fence cantanky sits on........ both!!

yeah what's going on with all these space threads lately?

they're about dads now.

thanks for the update. i don't know what i would do without you.

i'm sure you'd find a way to manage

I love Syd era PF, and The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn is one of my favourite albums, but A Saucerful Of Secrets has some very good stuff on it - Jugband Blues, Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun. And I like The Wall as well, but not Dark Side Of The Moon.

dark side is awesome, especially side 1

besides the obviously orgasmic "great gig in the sky", these are roger waters's neuroses at his best-- his fear of going mad, his obsession with stuff, etc, which finally explode rotten in the wall. but here are better.

anyway, i am plastered on whiskey sours. oh sweet sweet lemons. i juiced 10 of them and poured the 101 proof booze. good times.


t

i want the great gig in the sky played at my funeral.
fuck you, there's a 6 pack of turbodog in the fridge and i'm not supposed to drink. and i feel 600% better than i did two weeks ago.

edit: fuck it. you only live once.

nope, i have cheated death on several occasions. you live more than once. the trick is not to die.

keep your booze in the fridge (sounds like a foul drink anyway) and stay alive, so you have a story to tell.

turbodog is delicioso. the prospect of wandering the streets with friends in an hour or so is just too tempting.

what the fuck is "turbo dog"

too close to dog turds for my ear, but whatever.

describe?

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm i wanna be in new york so i can walk in the street at 4am.

can't you get fucked up on anything else?

anyway how is your liver, and are your eyes still yellow, and can you eat butter, and can you smell bacon without wanting to vomit?

you know hm... being up fresh from a nap is almost as good as being plastered.

no, i'm out of weed

eye status: not yellow
butter status: good
smell of bacon status: good
liver status: unknown

i dont mean to encourage your debauchery but if your body can smell bacon without a reaction your liver should be alright.

i hate to quote cliches but "the nose knows"-- if you're attuned to your instincts (addicts aren't) you'll know what you're supposed to do. feel your body for signals of wrongness.

ps-- did they give you a timeline or something? chronic diseases differ from acute ones. i am only familiar with acute liver situations. like, going to france and trying to devour all the terrines in a day.

by the way i had this truffled pâté for lunch today which is proof of the fine condition of my liver. my mouth was so happy i had a grin of satisfaction that lasted almost an hour.

ps the yellow eye is because your sick liver doesn't process bilirubin (sp?). so it backs up. if you're not jaundiced this indicates it's hurray time.

of course there are chronic conditions. they stay barely below the surface waiting to pounce.

they said it would clear of its own accord within 6wks most likely
i feel pretty normal now, i don't think i'll be suffering any repercussions. the thought of alcohol made me nauseous 3 weeks ago.

go easy & not like the junky in strage surroundings

have an exit strategy & take your vitamin B
