It was cornfirmed today that Syd Barrett died peacefully at home on Friday (http://today.reuters.co.uk/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2006-07-11T143155Z_01_L11366327_RTRUKOC_0_UK-BARRETT.xml)

I'm only a person with Eskimo chain
I tattooed my brain all the way...
Won't you miss me?
Wouldn't you miss me at all?

To be honest, we've missed you for a while Syd.

Righ, I knew you would be the first one to post this. I just read about it. A very sad story, really, but he lived a long life considering the difficulties he faced. RIP Syd.

Cliched though it may be, I can almost guarantee he is now in a better place than he has been the last 20-30 years.
