I was first introduced to you by cassette tapes. Copies of copies passed around by other weirdos in the lunchroom in high school. I didn’t know what order they were to go in so I just threw one in. I think it was Meddle. It changed my life.
I watched Pink Floyd The Wall at summer camp 20 times. It was the only VHS tape we had. We teenage psychologists parsed the symbolism of that film to the frame. I brought it up as the film to debate in my English class. It was voted down over The Crucible. I was crushed.
I finally got to see you at Texas Stadium for the Division Bell. I bought a single ticket with my plasma money. I tried to scalp it all the way to the front door. I’m glad no one took me up on it.
And I did buy all the albums for myself.
Thank You for the Music
