I was so lucky to be part of the about fifty spectators to watch them in a small club in Antwerp around Feb 69. It was really a cultural shock

In 69-70, i was a little do nothing when i was 4-5 years old. My parents got me infected with the Pink Floyd addiction. Now in 2023 i still feel the urge to listen to Pink Floyd. Going back to 69-70, feeling young again as a little boy who was trying to sing the lyrics without any english word in my vocabulary. The addiction is still raging on.

the way Syd and the band stood out from the crowd was unreal,
the music was other worldly at the time, and hearing them play while tripping must have been
like a door had been opened to another world, what a band, long live Pink Floyd !!!

I saw PF so many times in London back in the late 1960s and early 70s. The London Roundhouse and the Middle Earth were the best venues back then as they were both so laid back. I have tickets to see Nick Mason here in Brisbane in September 2023 and talk about a trip down memory lane. Def an experience that is never going to be repeated. As I hit 70 this year (and still trucking) it is with some sadness that we have lost so many friends on the way including Syd and Richard and yet part of the love they shared with us is still here in the music. What a privilege to have lived through the last 60 years with so much of the soundtrack to my life provided by PF. Outstandingly beautiful and uplifting, Thank you guys you lit the light that illuminated many. OXO

Saw them at Kitson College, Leeds. 1967 playing in the canteen. Who’d have thought I’d be watching this on an iPad in 2023, and still enjoying it. (God it was 55years ago.)

Im 70 and I never thought we would get to so easily enjoy all this great music from the dawn of our modern culture. I lost two decent album collection's in my life and it really takes a chunk out of you...then Youtube and all the great music from earlier timers at our fingertips.. I've been 0n computers since 71 (aiming howitzers and small missiles_)and this stuff is such a treat.
...btw saw them in Germany in 72 and 74 (DSOTM b4 released!) and 2x later. Those concerts were my generation's cultural High Mass. Believe it! Peace and keep smiling

Love the still photos at the end.Thank you pink floyd for all the great music you gave to us.

1972 Seattle. Great show! They played our request "Careful with that axe, Eugene". Our request!

Diese Songs habe ich 1972 zum ersten Mal gehört - es gab noch keine Videos- sie waren aber angelehnt an die Beatles, Status Quo ect, , aber hatten schon eigene Versionen - höre später....einfach genial!!!!

Syd Barrett was the best example of an English man ever poetic, intelligent beautiful

[thinginground]

The Syd Barrett story is just so...

Man I wish I could meet him.

[patrykwalentowicz]

Few days ago i chatted with Ian Barret the nephew od Syd.I can't believe.What a blessing.He wished me luck.I told him that because of Syd I started to Play on instruments.

[Geezer-yfhv]

Syd was a very unique performer. It is very sad, but I understand why they had to move on without him. I do feel that Syd inspired the rest of the group to go on, since he opened everyone’s minds!

[michel-ez]

My first album purchased in 1973: “Dark Side of the Moon”!!! I was 17, I listened to it several dozen times and I never got tired of it! A pearl in the world of music !!!

[ArchieFatcackie]

They were the first live band I ever saw which was at the Sunderland Locarno in 1969.
It cost 10 shillings and they blew me away.
There’s actually no one like them.
