Nick Mason - Blog Posts
Hey hey I found a new Nick photo and info about him and Lindy!!! (At least new for me) on an article (below):
“Whilst rummaging through the archives the other day, I came across a couple of amusing little articles, which piqued my interest. The first one is an article from The Farnham Herald, date unknown but by deduction the year is 1967”
“Pink Floyd Man in Flying Visit.
On a flying visit to his native land last week, was Nicky Mason of the Pink Floyd Pop Group (sic), who has been staying with the Rutter family at Millhanger, Thursley. Lindy Rutter has won praise for her choreography of the Farnham Youth Theatre production “Double Take” and for her solo dance which opens the show. She is to teach at Frensham Heights and will also be taking movement classes at RADA.
Nicky has just made an LP with the Pink Floyd, “The Saucerful of Secrets” which is number nine on the LP charts. The group has also recently ended a tour of the USA where they are becoming very popular. The trip took them from New York, through Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle etc, etc and but for the election rumpus in Chicago, they would have made a return trip there.
Nicky spoke to Youth in Action on Friday, the day before he flew to Belgium to take part in a music festival. A busy life and rather different from what he imagined it would be like when a student of architecture at Regent Street Polytechnic, where the Pink Floyd originated three years ago. The group has been professional for about 18 months”
“A quick Google search has since revealed that “Nicky” as he is called here, but now known as Nick Mason, and Lindy were married the following year, 1968, and had two children, before divorcing 20 years later. She is an accomplished flutist. He is the only remaining original member of the famous band. Note how the journalist refers to them as The Pink Floyd! Of course, they are known today as simply Pink Floyd. Another strange twist is that Millhanger was, of course, latterly purchased by Roger Taylor of Queen, who lived there until around 10 years ago”.

It looks like peter watts, but im not sure😭
Remember when The Floyd replaced Rick with some guy for one interview
Don’t you hate it when you are writing songs and you allow your unconscious feelings to emerge…
And then you find yourself having written a song about a minor called Benny?
#Haven’t we all went through that?
Ps: Don’t we all love Roger’s sunglasses era? Who doesn’t love hiding their insecurities and traumas with a big pair of glasses?…
So, a recent string of comments brought me to memory lane.
I was in a Pink Floyd instagram group, (I owned a rock account there) and one day they sent like a naked picture of roger(if its him? anyways you couldn’t see anything) with one of his wives??
MY QUESTION IS HOW DO PEOPLE FIND THIS THINGS???? WHY???? AND HOW DID THE PICS COME OUT? DID HE GAVE THEM TO A FRIEND AND THEN THE FRIEND DECIDED TO POST IT IN SOME SKETCHY BLOG? DID HE GIVE HIS CONSENT FOR THE PIC TO BE ON THE INTERNET? is it really him?
-So many questions and so little answers…
If this happened to me I’d be mortified.
(Also, was someone else in the group Pink Floyd antis? if so, did you sent the pic? If so, WHY? WHY?)
In 2022 I made a Pink Floyd parody fanfic. It was more than that, a piece of shit, to be precise.
BUT, I had laughed so hard while making it, that my delusions fooled me into thinking it was hilarious. Anyways, today after some years I decided to revisit it, unfortunately, and fixed some major typos. Anyways:
This is one of the UNEDITED PARTS. CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHY?? WHAT WAS THE REASON?
???????
Thanks to the only person who commented though….
I HAD NEVER SEEN THISSS.
I wish I was a model in the 60s just to be paid for eating a banana next to Pink Floyd.
Pink Floyd 1968
One of my favorite YouTube genres is people singing whole albums/songs a Capella.
I present you two of my favorite Pink Floyd “but it’s just my voice”
I really wish Roger could see them and give his opinion.
this is something I would do😭
Pink Floyd interviews…always giving us so much information….
#meanwhile paul mccartney using every question to dig into some lore.
If something doesn’t go wrong, Is it really a Pink Floyd concert?

Why there is so little (I would say almost if not non-existent) information about Pink Floyd’s groupies? They obviously had them. Why hasn’t any of them come forward? Are they as mysterious as the band?
if someone has any information please tell me😭 I’ve trying to find Pink Floyd mud since the medieval period.
(Also not the story about Rick getting a groupie pregnant and then marrying her)
Do I have to wait as many years as we waited for the spit incident video?
#mysticalgroupies #pleasecomeforward
happy 81st birthday to my beautiful wife, nicholas berkeley mason !! 😇

I see Steve's "parenthood" on the band in my head like this
imagine if rick just didn't come back. what do they even do then
Rick could've run over Roger by a bike and crush him but Roger's mighty hand stopped his wheel... Shame.
Pink Floyd // …all five of them…
can we talk about how nick actually is kind of serving KUNT in some of his pictures
The track ‘In The Flesh’ invites the audience to “go to the show” - to come along to the rally and show support before forces mobilise and foment a violent uprising across the streets of London. The band onstage, characterised in live performances of the album by a surrogate band comprised of different musicians adorning life masks of Floyd members Waters, Gilmour, Wright and Mason, replace a Pink that remains ‘comfortably numb’ in his hotel room:
“I've got some bad news for you, sunshine
Pink isn't well, he stayed back at the hotel
And they've sent us along as a surrogate band
We're gonna find out where you fans really stand!”
This uncanny representation of band members is understood to represent the musicians’ surrogacy as agents of ideological repression, insofar as they serve to perpetuate the dominant ideology while also acting as a form of entertainment to keep the subjects enthralled and entertained while, ‘behind the scenes,’ they are in fact complacent in their own oppression through ignorance and acceptance. Taking into account Freud's psychoanalytic consideration of the role of the uncanny, it is recognised that an intentional feeling of discomfort and unfamiliarity actively subverts and disrupts the individual’s understanding of the reality around them. The use of these masks can also be understood to comment on the role of the musician in a capitalist society - by portraying the band members as masked and interchangeable, Waters suggests that musicians are often recognised to be commodified tools of an industry which promotes capitalist ideals of excess and grandeur.
rick wright and nick mason are like if mario and wario were good acquaintances. like if they were just ok with one another
so i was shown this image by people on discord
and i just…. they look so fucking uncomfortable…. and i
Here they are, Syd, Nick and Rick! Syd is bald not because I did that, he was initially with hair, but due trait "Unstable" he just... shaved himself, lol. So I accepted his choice and left him be.

PINK FLOYD FANTASY RPG! 🔮 Roger - Dark Elf/Sorcerer Nick - Warrior Syd - Alchemist/Nature Magician Rick - Healer David - Bard I can’t believe I finished this,, I have too much spare time 😂 Was really fun to draw though! I might even make for art and lore for this!

Nicky! What a prettie, of course he does look like real Nicky, love him.
