Sad day - had to laugh though when they talk about the final tour with PF when Syd was so high on LSD he could hardly play a cord! 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

Allowed him to write some great tunes though, even if he did only last 3 yrs with the band. Very Happy

He will be able to play the pipes at the gates of dawn.

A true icon and imo, one of the best songwriters to grace this planet.
