I was actually listening to a Pink Floyd's [I]Pulse[/I] CD when I read that.
It reminded me of when Hunter S. Thompson killed himself a day after I finished reading [I]Hell's Angels.[/I] Apparently I have a dark girft.

RIP Syd and Hunter.

And his death coincides with the release of Pulse on DVD.

Weird.

I thought that was odd too. But he wasn't with the band for that concert, right?

No he left the group a long time ago...

Can't wait to get Pulse on DVD!

Me too. I actually just bought the CD (bad timing on my part) because I hadn't heard about the DVD. I'm not that into the concert DVDs but this will have to be an exception because I really like the Division Bell stuff.
