I had hoped to meet Matt Johns from the Brain Damage website, but I couldn’t get a signal on my phone in the Barbican. I hate to think that I missed my one opportunity to see the classic Floyd line-up because Rog’ fancied a quickie with his bit of stuff*…Īnyway, it was a great evening, a worthy tribute to Syd and I got some good photos. He also explained Roger’s no-show with the band: apparently he had to get back to his hotel to meet his girlfriend. Guy had a Bryan Ferry gig in Cambridge and couldn’t attend. I later learned from Guy that David had called him at 2pm that day asking what he was up to that night. An amazing evening and Chris and I left on a real high. There were cries for more, not least from me, and they did join everyone else for the final Singalonga Bike. From L-R: Richard Wright, Andy Bell, David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Jon CarinĪnd that was it. There were shouts of ‘Roger Waters!’ from the crowd, to which David replied, ‘Yes, he was here, too…’ So where was he now? Never mind… They played Arnold Layne – it wasn’t the greatest rendition, there were problems with Rick’s keyboard and mic, but it was just terrific to see them playing again. I had totally convinced myself that this was not going to happen and here we were. Then Joe Boyd came on and told us he couldn’t think of a better way to round off the evening than to ask David, Nick and Rick onto the stage… Well, we were blown away. Vashti Bunyan, more Damon Albarn and Captain Sensible, Robyn Hitchcock, John Paul Jones, and Chrissie Hynde. I even saw Storm Thorgerson queueing for the loo in the break. He looked very nervous – he was shaking like a leaf even when he was playing – and he played Flickering Flame on an acoustic guitar accompanied by Jon Carin on keyboards. Well, Chris and I jumped to our feet as did the rest of the audience.

Captain Sensible (looking alarmingly like Paul O’Grady), Nick Laird-Clowes, Damon Albarn, The Bees, and then, to finish the first half, on strode Roger Waters. Everyone was just a little under-rehearsed, singers had scraps of paper with the lyrics, roadies wrestled with mic stands to ready them for the next artistes, all of varying heights. The show was wonderful in a very English and slightly shambolic way. David saying no effectively ruled out Nick and Rick, too, and as for Roger… I knew that he was in the country on tour, but who knows if he had the time?Īnyway, the traffic was terrible and we were fifteen minutes late but, thankfully, the show was late starting and we were in our excellent seats (second row, just right of centre!) in plenty of time for the start. I guess he felt that he had made his tribute already with his very moving rendition of Dark Globe on his last tour.

Guy (Pratt) told me that David Gilmour had been approached and had politely declined. I had wondered if anyone from Pink Floyd might show up. All sorts of rumours had been flying around about who might show up, but when names like Robyn Hitchcock, Chrissie Hynde and Martha Wainwright were officially announced I realised that it would be a sincere tribute from people genuinely influenced by Syd. I had been looking forward to this since it was first announced. Last night Chris and I drove to the Barbican to attend The Madcap’s Last Laugh, a tribute concert to Syd Barrett.

Ten years ago today I was lucky enough to go to a gig with my nephew Chris which exceeded all expectations… I’ve been trawling through my diary from ten years ago, chronicling my trials as a writer, but every now and then I find something very special that has nothing to do with my scribblings. “Two Chickens for Laura Longarms” will be read by Julie Walters!.FAVERSHAM LITERARY FESTIVAL - SATURDAY 19TH FEBRUARY, 4PM.
