As most of you know, Pink Floyd keyboardist Rick Wright passed away earlier this week at the age of 65.

Being (obviously) a Floyd fan, I wanted to know if anyone wanted to share any tributes and/or memories (anyone ever meet him?)

It's a sad loss for sure. I'm a moderate Pink Floyd fan myself.

Lost A Great Man, And A Better Musician. He's One Person Who I Feel Had The Most To Say About Floyd, Even If He Never Did.

First Syd, then Richard. I wonder who's next in the group to go? I wish they'd reunite again, other than just what they did at Live 8. Roger's always been my favorite, but to see him perform again with David and Nick would be great.

I don't think Dave and Nick would have him.  There is too big a rift, and a lot of it stems from Roger's treatment of Rick.  (Remember the Roger-less hug after Live 8?)

Of course-in Dave's words-anything can happen.
