About This Group
Pink Floyd was formed in London in 1965 by members Syd Barrett‚ Roger Waters‚ Nick Mason‚ and Richard Wright. While the band has had various issues and member changes‚ the "banned" incidents generally refer to their controversial live shows and the political climate in South Africa. The band was banned from South Africa in 1980 for its song "Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)" and from venues like Queen Elizabeth Hall in 1967 for damaging seats with a performance stunt.
