| According to the book Comfortably Numb: A History of The Wall by Vernon Fitch and Richard Mahon, there were 5 different versions of the album The Wall: Water's original demo, the final album version, and 3 additional demos. The book was released in a limited edition run of just 5000 copies. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France, for above 3) |
| The band was named after 2 American Blues musicians, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. Other names they used included The Megadeaths and The Abdabs. |
| Because they were rarely pictured on album covers (they appear on the cover of their 1969 album Ummagumma) and the light show was the focus of attention at concerts, many people have no idea what the band members look like. This has helped them remain anonymous and live more normal lives. |
| Dark Side of The Moon still sells around 8,000 copies a week in the US. (thanks, John - Toronto, Canada) |
| Waters, Wright and Mason formed the band when they met at a London architectural school. Syd Barrett joined them shortly after. |
