Some mediocre "alpha male" dudes. They are clueless.
I have to wonder, do these same people get upset with their god when they witness an actual rainbow?

Yes, they really can get stoopider

The "people" who are mad know nothing...zilch...nada about Pink Floyd. They were probably born in the early to mid 90s and have only a fleeting knowledge of The Wall at best because they have seen the movie.

That is one of the most iconic album covers of all times!

They are prism-ers of their own mind.

This whole 50th anniversary thing is sad.

Not proud about calling out a high school kid, but last night at my niece's high school performance the girl who was the stage manager was wearing a Pink Floyd tee shirt. It had just the prism without the spectrum and a quip about using the rainbow (don't remember what it said). I couldn't bite my tongue and asked her if she had ever seen the album cover or listened to the album.

Uh...."no" to both. I rest my case.

I told her she should educate herself before blindly jumping on the woke bandwagon.

When I heard it alone, I didn’t think much of it. But, with this video, it kind of hits the spot.

It's not my thing and I was raised on The Beatles.

I'm listening to the song "Demons" by Imagine Dragons. Not normally what I would choose to listen to, but my neighbor has been playing it super loud, it's hard not to hear!

Top 20 Quotes from Billy Gibbons:

1. “Ever since I was a little kid and first heard Jimmy Reed’s ‘Honey, Don’t Let Me Go,’ the blues has been in my blood.”

2. “Sounds like the blues are composed of feeling, finesse, and fear.”

3. “The blues is a mighty long road. Or it could be a river, one that twists and turns and flows into a sea of limitless musical potential.”

4. “Experience is definitely the high road once driven. It actually enhances the songwriting and song sourcing process.”

5. “The prospect of seeing oneself in the mirror clean-shaven is too close to a Vincent Price film… a prospect not to be contemplated, no matter the compensation.”

6. “It’s important to collect unusual characters. It keeps you sharp.”

7. “In 1950, the biggest amp you could get was no bigger than a tabletop radio.”

8. “Our skin colors may vary, but what’s upstairs—there’s certain things we’ve all got in common.”

9. “White people get nervous and speed things up. You don’t have to be in a hurry because you ain’t got nothing to gain and you ain’t got nothin’ to lose. And that’s where the groove lies.”

10. “The blues is life itself.”

11. “The rawness and the richness of music on vinyl almost went away, but it still seems to be on a lot of people’s radar, and for good reason. It does something different than more accessible means of music playing, like MP3 players and downloads and whatnot. You get in front of these archaic contraptions that go ’round and ’round.”

12. “Until you learn to play what you want to hear, you’re barking up the wrong tree.”

13. “Having a visual element to your band is a good thing.”

15. “Did Muddy Waters play an acoustic? Well of course he did. But did he turn his back on being able to plug it in and play louder? No, he plugged in and turned it up and got miles and miles ahead of the game in one fateful act of just plugging in.”

16. “That tactile feel of flipping through a stack of vinyl remains one of life’s simple pleasures.”

17. “Sooner rather than later, any other form other than digital media will be a thing of the past. It won’t vanish, but let’s face it, this is seemingly the way of the future.”

18. “It’s a real uphill challenge to battle the white-guyness.”

19. “I’ve been touted for my guacamole. I’ll stand by my method. People have asked me to come to their home and prepare it. Restaurants have asked me about it.”

20. “Turn on, tune up, rock out.”

I don't really care for the title track, but everything else I just play on shuffle and repeat.
