Someone who likes Pink Floyd enough to fit under the definition of being a fanatic (which is commonly shortened into 'fan'). Casual listeners who can't even properly name the songs they like need not apply.
See also 'Fan':
รขยยnoun
an enthusiastic devotee, follower, or admirer of a sport, pastime, celebrity, etc.
Antonym:
Casual listener.
Poser #1: ANYONE WHO LIKES ONE SONG BY A BAND IS A FAN.
Pink Floyd Fan: Actually, if you use the English language and abide by the use of the word 'fan', you have to be an enthusiast to call yourself one. Enthusiasts know the song by name, not by the catchy chorus, just like they know the band by their catalog, not by the singles.
Poser #2: YOU SAID ALL POPULAR MUSIC IS BAD AND I CAN'T USE PROPER GRAMMAR.
Pink Floyd Fan: Actually, I don't have any problems with popular music, I just have problems with people who talk about how much they love a band when they only know five of their songs. And if you can't grasp grammar, don't attempt to define words and phrases in a public forum.

Someone who listens to and enjoys all the music of Pink Floyd. To sharpen the definition, since many people don't seem to understand the sensibilites therein, I will underscore what does NOT make a Pink Floyd fan.
1. Anyone who thinks 'Another Brick In The Wall Part 2' is their best song.
2. Anyone who thinks they didn't make any albums after 'The Wall'.
3. Anyone who does not know who Syd Barrett is.
4. Anyone who thinks Pink Floyd is a person.
5. Anyone who can't name the members.
6. And most importantly, anyone who can only name 'Dark Side Of The Moon', 'Wish You Were Here', and 'The Wall' as albums they have written.
Let me go on to elaborate that anyone who likes just popular music can't consider themselves a fan of a band.
Popular Music Fan: Pink Floyd is awesome.
Pink Floyd Fan: Yeah, what's your favorite album?
Popular Music Fan: The Wall.
Pink Floyd Fan: And your favorite song?
Popular Music Fan: Another Brick In The Wall.
Pink Floyd Fan: Which part?
Popular Music Fan: Huh? There are parts?
Pink Floyd Fan: Do you know any of their other albums?
Popular Music Fan: Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here.
Pink Floyd Fan: Besides those two.
Popular Music Fan: They put out albums besides those three?
Pink Floyd Fan: Do you know who Syd Barrett is?
Popular Music Fan: Didn't he invent guns?
Pink Floyd Fan: You are not a Pink Floyd fan.
Popular Music Fan: Oh.
