Condition grounded but determined to try
God keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I"

I have the poster of the girls painted with the album covers on my wall right now, next to my bed. I love that shot, and Pink Floyd is one of my favorite bands.

I actually bought two extra of the same poster from Media Play's "Going out of business sale" because they were about three dollars and I thought it was just so cool.

Wish You Were Here (Waters, Gilmour) 5:17

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

-- Hi -- I feel the same. = Pink Floyd = The best in stage/Sur-round sound at a show. 1976 Miami,Fl. - 15.00/ticket I have seen many bands... many different cities. The Pink Floyd concert/sound was so expensive to set-up it took months. A total of shows 3 in the entire U.S. at that time. What a memory - never forget -Seth-

Wasn't that the show where the winds ripped the stage props off? (I had a friend who was there) I envy you got to see the band together, I've see the post-Floyd band 3 times and Roger once solo a few years ago. All incredible productions and arena sound systems were way before their time.

Their music will live forever, Dark Side will always be regarded as one of the finest recordings of all times.

Time - Dark Side of the Moon
(Mason, Waters, Wright, Gilmour) 7:06

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say.
