Pink Floyd Suck?
Even insane megalomanic astronomy students take time out to listen to music, watch tv, re catalogue their people to have assasinated list, etc
A few days ago, prof hans bobbletoff left a message posted on this blog. Sure i denied reading it at first, just my imagination like that noble peace prize. I looked again today, and it is still there.
"Finally, a momentous twin announcement. After months of deliberation, argument and soul-seeking, two pillars of seeming immensity and solidity have finally and irrevocably crumbled. I thus say to you; Radiohead suck! Pink Floyd suck! They are both shite! Dare to defy me!"
I believe in a four tiered structure of the music industry. At the foundation, we have the classics, Beathoven, Bach, Wagner. Above them are the untouchables, groundbreaking artists who influence many who include Dylan, Rolling stones, Hendrix, Bowie, Pink Floyd. Then there are the great musicians above them. Finally the tripe at the top.
By removing a pillar from a tier, the musicians in the tiers above fall down like the shit that they are. No one has to like the classics or the untouchables, or enjoy their music. All they have to do is accept they are untouchable. Sure the prof may not enjoy the floyd, but are they shit? No.

Denying truth because it is too difficult to swallow? To preserve the existing order? Sweep away Pink Floyd and Radiohead. Burn them to ashes! You will find nothing falls, because they support nothing beyond masturbatory (ie messily self-gratifying) prog rock. There are no tiers. Bad music lies bloated and flatulent on the ground, while Hendrix kisses the sky.
And Wagner? Someone, perhaps someone very witty, said he 'makes a good ten minutes, but a bad five hours'. Considering you have only heard 'Ride of the Valkyries', I believe your desire to give him 'legend' status is ill-advised and premature.
I now have pressing matters to attend to. At work I was forced to endure operatic versions of Bohemian Rhapsody, 'Creep' by Radiohead and 'Everybody Hurts' by REM. Whoever is responsible I will find and punish.
