Rest in Peace, Roger Barrett.
I wonder if his paintings will be made public anytime soon? I heard that's one of the things who loved to do was paint, mostly fractal paintings too, no surprise.

Indeed.
Cnn said "The spokeswoman said a low-key, private funeral would be held. She did not disclose the cause of death."
Hopefully, the real cause will leak, but It does'nt really matter much .

Syd will go down as a major pioneer in music.
I can only hope that as a result of this Waters/Gilmour put aside their petty bitching and reunite for a Farewell to Syd tour.

I'm glad this got stickied, because we would definitely have like 15 of these threads floating and dying, in here.
RIP Syd

Never was a fan.
I find Piper at the Gates PF's worst album and thank god everyday he left. We probably wouldn't have Darkside or Wish You Were Here if he'd stay around.
