Yeah, the local Bloomington, IN radio station actually played Shine on You Crazy Diamond as a tribute yesterday. I thought that was pretty cool.

Was very sad to hear of this - it's was even announced on the classical/big-band station my grandfather listens to at our cottage.... It was kinda nice that they played Wish You Were Here and Shine On You Crazy Diamond in tribute.
