I used to love music by Pink Floyd. I listened to their work all the time.

Back in 2004, I went to a Roger Waters concert. I was in a large group of 10-15 people, all good friends.

In retrospect, I should have seen what was coming, but...I didn’t.

It turned into a 3 hour political audiovisual tirade against Bush, neocons, conservatives and Israel, with some music mixed in. It looked like Code Pink put together the slide and video shows they had going on.

I didn’t want to ruin the evening for the people I went with, but I was steaming mad. I grit my teeth and sat there. At the end of the “concert”, they released a 40 foot high ballon of a pig with “F*ck Bush” on one side and “Vote Democrat” on the other.

I have been unable to listen to any Pink Floyd music since then. It STILL pisses me off.

He couldn’t even get through a biography of Syd Barret without spewing his vile hatred of non-libtards. Really, no wonder Syd fried his brains, working with that POS day in and day out.
