Pink Floyd Coupon Code May 2025 - 50% OFF

Later the band members of Pink Floyd gathered in London, but the band's roots in the early 1960s were in Cambridge in eastern England. Roger "sid" Barrett, Roger waters and David gilmore all grew up in Cambridge (Roger waters moved there from surrey when he was 2) and entered the music scene as part of the popular folk and percussion of the time. Young Roger Barrett was actively encouraged by his parents in his music and art, both of which he was successful in school. Pink Floyd met Roger Waters at school and David Gilmour as a teenager, so their friendship predated Pink Floyd. Roger Barrett acquired the nickname "Syd" around age 14 from local drummer Sid Barrett, so the spelling of "Syd" represents "something different."
