Great Quote

"The greatest moments of the human spirit may be deduced from the greatest moments in music." - Aaron Copeland
-
"There are things that music can do that language could never do, that painting can never do, or sculpture. Music is capable of going directly to the source of the mystery. It doesn't have to explain it. It can simply celebrate it." Marsha Norman

Awesome! At 62 he's still da man.
You've heard the rumors that he'll headline Coachella? That would be SICK!
Great choice! Syd Barrett's birthday was on Monday.
I caught him live in the Bay Area a couple of years ago, before his major health problem on the European leg of his tour. It was an astonishing energetic and satisfying performance--easily in my top 5 of all time. Hope he can headline Coachella, but I don't think he has done any extended gigs since his hospitalization.
