"we created situations that were dangerous for each other" - "so I made him laugh during a cup of tea" I've never heard something so inherently british
I just realized the conversation was literally this: - Are you looking forward to doing a Q&A with Nick? - I nearly killed him once by saying "yacht". Ask him about it!
You can relate this conversation to any band that had broken up You feel the love that comes out when the stories are told. You see it in their eyes all the good times they had, even if its over the word yacht.
Seems like Roger only has fond memories of Nick, Syd, and sometimes Rick. You can tell there was always a tension between Roger and David even when the entire band was getting along
I just read Nicks book, he talks about how the band at dinner used to get into such rows that any executives refused to eat with them for fear they'd be blamed for the band breaking up. Nick says they all had the same sense of humour which was needling people until they left. They had a guy who was maybe a producer, I forget (ok I didn't pay attention to all the details), but he showed up for dinner saying that he was in such a good mood that nothing could bother him. And Nick says within seven minutes he was fuming from the room. Roger had mentioned that maybe they should be talking about lowering his commission on the album. So thats their sense of humour. Which almost makes this modern stuff going on 'in public' seem like it might just be a big joke to them.
@@brianinglis3805 I wonder what Nick's sense of taste is like. It would be typical of Roger to have ruined his friend's ability to properly taste food, for life. Rog, what a card.
It was one of those "you had to be there" situations we old men collect with friends. When I read the title I thought "No, not peace loving laid back Nick who never upset anyone in his life." I can imagine Roger Waters can be a real pain in the backside, but he is a true musical genius of which there are really very few. I for one am very grateful of his gifts to us all.

I almost died laughing once when someome told me a George Carlin joke about the country going down the tubes... where are these tubes? And why are there more than one?
I would imagine it was in the early days when they had been smoking spliff. Random words in isolation carry a heavy weight of mirth in such addled scenarios. I've been there.
The late great Syd Barrett had to change the name because there was another band called "The Tea Set" at a gig they were booked to play so Syd came up with Pink Floyd. The rest is history...
I had a similar experience but it was "strawberry quik" that came out of my friends nostrils! Two pink streams coming out of his nose it was magnificent! The laughter almost killed us!
I did the same thing with a chip( French fry for you North Americans) on my school lunch outside the 'Chippy' when I lived in Liverpool I practically inhaled it and I was also writhing in agony . ALWAYS ALWAYS have a cold drink with you or a bottle of water handy!

I believe he nearly killed the other members of the Floyd too.
The original cover for "Amused to Death" was going to be a drawing of Nick, David and Rick floating dead in a giant martini glass
Yo wtf
He "had to give them a career to destroy them". (That is a quote from Marshal Mathers)
Well he did his part to mentally kill Rick. Thankfully, David helped Rick recover and convinced him to play again.
Syd electrocuted himself not long before"he went mad"if you believe that piece of marketing.
And to this day, Nick claims everything smells like a cup of tea.
