Why would they ask "which one's Pink?" that doesn't even make sense that would be like the record label asking Black Sabbath which one's Black. This is just Roger being a cunt again for no reason
>>128810993Your anus
ntm on rog thats papi
>>128810993i was always asking that question to myself aswell
>>128810993They thought Pink was Syd, but they see him there.
>>128810993because pink floyd sounds more like it could be a solo artist's name than black sabbath.
>>128810993>OK here's a million dollars, record random sounds and go nowhere instrumental jams, who cares we'll release it anyway, travel the world fucking sluts, we'll take care of everythingNooooooo!
>>128810993He was knowingly having a goof, as if a [manager] would literally, unironically, and sincerely ask such a thing
>>128810993It's a joke, the idea is that the record label doesn't know them at all and assumes the frontman is literally a guy who goes by the name of pink floyd.
>>128810993Well the thing is "Pink" was actually a name. As a matter of fact, the name "Pink Floyd" was derived from two blues artists, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council.So..It wouldn't be a stretch to imagine a manager would confuse the name for the name of an individual.
>>128810993Does anyone remember laughter?
>>128810993The name is a subtle joke:
Fink Ployd.. get it? iykyk!
>>128812504Thatd be like asking Van Halen which one's Van
Pink is more like a title, like Bond, James
>>128812722yeah it would be a silly, poorly thought out question. which is the point of the lyric in the first place.
>>128812504There must be a pink floyd tribute band called anderson council
Anyone that has been to hippie band shows knows that a guy going around asking "which one's pink" is a sign that there is suspicion of an undercover narcotics officer or confidential informant watching and seeing who is handing things off and who they are associating with in furtherance of drug transactions
>>128810993>We did have people who would say to us "Which one's Pink?" and stuff like that. There were an awful lot of people who thought Pink Floyd was the name of the lead singer and that was Pink himself and the band. That's how it all came about, it was quite genuine.>—David Gilmour, December 1992, In the Studio with Redbeard for "Making of Shine On" and "Making of Wish You Were Here"[18]I think it really says something about this board that nearly 20 posts in, nobody has even bothered doing a quick search to see whether it was based on a true story
>>128813813Everyone knows this they're just pretending to be dumb.
>>128813887my favorite joke
>>128813813We don't actually listen to music here, we all just quote wikipedia lol
>>128813887>just pretendingIf only.
