[QUOTE="mosconiac, post: 3833271, member: 4013"] I believe that story was recited on the Wall DVD in the 2nd audio track (director & Roger speaking). They also discussed Syd's penchant for staring blankly at the mic on stage...that is how Gilmore entered the scene. Syd would compose the songs and David would play them live...until Syd dropped out all together. Here's the story... "In a famous anecdote, a heavyset man with a completely shaved head and eyebrows wandered into the studio while the band was recording "Shine On You Crazy Diamond". The band could not recognize him for some time, when suddenly one of them realized it was Syd Barrett. He was greeted enthusiastically by the band but subsequently slipped away during the impromptu party for David Gilmour's wedding (which was, coincidentally, also on that day). It was the last time any of the other band members saw him. Gilmour recently confirmed this story, although he could not recall which song they were working on when Syd showed up. Barrett's eyebrow-shaving tendencies would later be revisited in the movie Pink Floyd: The Wall." [/QUOTE]
