        I'm not sure, given Syd's rumoured mental state, it could. Though
it's a long time since I read the Echoes FAQ, which is where I got this
notion from. Does anyone know where it lives on the web these days? But
yes, I don't think he's played since 1972. Though several of the sighting
reports I've heard suggest that he still sings. But whether you believe
them or not, is up to you. Yours,
                                 Jon
