Thats like saying religion should only be for the ones who first 'discovered' God . So what, we can't believe in him because it's been done before? We have to create a new God for this generation?
I'd far sooner find someone original if they wore a Floyd t-shirt then a Greenday t-shirt or something that is currently 'in'. It shows they've gone against the grain and listened to something that does sound different to what is on offer today, which more often then not, requires a greater amount of will to appreciate then something like Greenday that is force fed to us whether we want to listen to it or not.

Yeah, if Pink Floyd are so mainstream, why arent there more bands that sound like them??
How many bands nowadays consider Floyd a influence, very few, i can only name some at the top of my head...Muse, Radiohead, Mars Volta, Secret Machines, Coldplay, Porcupine Tree, etc.
