Did you here the story about during the recording sessions for the title track this really obese guy showed up in the studio who had a completely shaved head including his eyebrows? Dude was pretty much incoherent and just sat there watching.

Once Gilmour realized it was Syd he broke down and bawled.

(The shaved eyebrow scene in the movie version of The Wall was based on this)
