"i think that it was good that pink floyd got rid of sid."

1. Capitals are your friend.
2. Spell the man's name correctly.

"but i also think that syd is also the reason for many of pink floyds albums."

Well, DUH, if he hadn't have been in the BAND, they wouldn't have been PINK FLOYD, being that he named them and all.

"like in brain damage the line " you raise the blade, you make the change, you rearange me till i'm sain""

How can you not spell rearrange or sane? I mean seriously these are 4th grade spelling words.

"refers to syds opperation where they took out the frontal lobe of his brain."

When was this? (Or was it like in A Change of Mind on The Prisoner where they just tricked Number Six into believing he had had a lobotomy? ;) )

"i think in the end it was better off that syd left, but i think that he is also the driving force behind pink floyds awsome lryics and musical style!"

Erm... So in the end you're back where you started? Yes, it was best that Syd not be in the group any longer under the circumstances. If he was still in the band, the music would certainly be very different. Whether it would be good or bad, I don't know.
What I do know is that you need serious spell check, my man.

HAHAHAHA! Syd, having a labotomy is like my neighbor NOT soiling himself.

Impossible.

And who's the fool who wears the crown?

This is the biggest flame post I've read since i joined... And he did spell his name correctly. He spelt it 'Sid' once, and 'Syd' every other time. Why do you only point out every word he spells incorrectly? Why not point out the ones he gets right if anything. Did you make your day better by posting this reply?
Here's a good starting example.

That is a very nice opinion you have on Syd Barrett leaving Pink Floyd. Oh thats right, we aren't talking about Pink Floyd here. We are keeping an eye out for people who dont capitalise their 'I's.
Oh well.

Personally I found what fish eyed lens was talking about to be interesting. I would like to know about this lobotomy surgery he apparently had. Has enyone else ever heard anything at all that might suggest this is true?

Hmmm, reading this quote again... Honestly... I dont see room on this message board for a post like this.
Quote:"but i also think that syd is also the reason for many of pink floyds albums."

Did he really say something to offend you that much to reply with a 'DUH'?

Speaking of words you can spell by the time you hit grade 4, i saw duh on the list, but i think it dissapears somewhere after... Here you are insulting his vocabulary when you are using made up words. You know there is another way to express what you were saying without using 'Duuhh'
I would have been happy to hear what you said without the unnecessary high brow insults you are throwing at him. I did not know Syd Barret name Pink Floyd.
Well, heres to waking up on the right side of the bed tomorrow.

If Syd did have a lobotomy, it's strange he has no scars on his head to show for it.

Also I've never head of doctors giving someone a lobotomy for schizophrenia, which is what Syd suffers from.

Completetly false as to the labotomy claim. Contrary to some beliefs, Syd is not a walking zombie. He functions very well in his own environment. He didn't freak out and go nuts; he just dropped out of society as she saw it.

RE: syd barret - syd
Took out the frontal lobe in his brain!?!? Where do you find this stuff!?!?! Do you subscribe to TMZ?
That is the most cruelist,idiotic claim I've ever heard. YOU need to do your homework for you know nothing of Syd if you believe that shit!! ANY BOOK will tell you that the removal of Syd's frontal Lobe is ....GOD, I can't believe I'm answering this shit. Here's 25 cents.....BUY A CLUE!!
