I was at that show. Also not a fan of their earlier stuff, I started really taking notice around ‘Dark Side’ like everyone else. But yeah, that show was ridiculous for its time - and I marveled at the sheer amount of gear they hauled around.

I saw a lot of shows at the Factory - Small Faces with Marriott and Faces with shy boy Stewart, Elton John’s first East Coast show chief among them. I still regret not having gone to see Jimi there. Todd R in The Nazz opened that show.

What do you mean like everyone else??? : )

My first Floyd purchase was Ummagumma in high school (‘70) and then I went back and listened to the Syd Barrett stuff which is quite poppy in ways as they were really a bit of a mod band then.

But if you only like Dark Side on then you would have missed this (see vid). I loved this piece of music for late nights on mind altering substances or creating art while in college and for in the car on a peaceful drive in the country. A real trip as it were. Only Floyd could give you Atom Heart Mother in 1970.
