this poll is slightly different. I know Friede shares birthday with Nick Mason; that's what inspired me to do this poll

If Jack Bruce was ever in Pink Floyd, then I'm ok, but I'm thinking he probably wasn't.

As Jean already mentioned: I share birthday with Nick Mason (and with Lewis Carroll, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Emperor Wilhelm II and - my brother Frank who is ten years older than me).

The only artist I share the birthday with is Arlo Guthrie, who is one of my non-prog myths.

If George Harrison was in Pink Floyd, that would be the option I'd select.

An interesting guessing game, by the way: How many people do you need so the chance that 2 people of them share birthday is greater than 50%? The answer will surprise most people.

Close, but no cigar. Leave out the 6. Yep, the number is 23.

Roger Waters is the closest one for me, but with a 38 days difference.

None. Closest to Nick Mason though.
I don't think I share the same birthday with any musician (that I know of)
I share a birthday with Mia Farrow though, so...that's something lol
