The Stumble Inn last night
was a terrific night. I knew we'd do well there being local
for some of us but I didn’t think the crowd would
have been able to sing louder than we could through the
fantastic sounding rig of Chris Warsop (Red Wine Music),
long time sound engineer for Maet Loaf. We used some 26
channels on his mixing desk so he had his work cut out that
night and he certainly proved his ability to make a big
band like ours sound great! The audience at The Stumble
have always been a good crowd but last night they were at
their very best! Not only singing along at full volume,
they were in tune too, some of the best audience vocals
we've heard! Thanks to Jenny, The Stumble Landlady, for
handing over the room to us for the night. We had a great
time and who knows; we may pop back and do another gig sometime.

The last performance at The Limellght Club in Crewe saw
us really start to click into place as a band. Most of
the night was as close to perfect as you get, we only
had a couple of tech problems which were quickly ironed
out and away we went. We had some raving comments feedback
emailed in suggesting we're up there with the top Pink
Floyd Tributes already! That's more than we had hoped
for at this stage but we think it reflects on the desire
of all 9 of us to be one of the leading tributes to Pink
Floyd. A huge thank you to everyone who came and especially
to the people that took the trouble to write in to us
with your support.

What a great first gig we
had. We've only just managed to get the audio out to the
band and I think overall we're pretty happy with our performance
as a new band. As Pink Floyd Tribute Bands go we're definitely
giving the rest something to think about. Anybody who doesn't
have a full compliment of musicians on stage will be starting
to think twice, I know I would be if I had seen us that
night. Many people commented on the fact that we had a guitarist
that plays and sings like David Gilmour and someone even
said we had the potential to be as good as Australian Floyd
if we had been going as long as them. Lot's of people were
also saying how the 3 backing vocals (one of which plays
Saxophones very well as it happens) made the night too.
They said things like they were great to watch doing all
the dance moves as they do on Pulse DVD. Overall we had
a great night, a great turn out and we played a respectable
gig. The sound left a lot to be desired but we were at the
mercy of the in-house engineer who had never dealt with
24 channels all at the same time in one night.. :-) He did
okay though for a first attempt. We will eventually have
our own engineer but first we need to learn to walk confidently.
We have work to do in our constant striving for perfection
and a couple more songs to add and some to take out etc.
Hopefully we have some video footage that is reasonable
enough for you soon. We had three cameras rolling at the
Bigge Venue so fingers crossed the editor can find some
decent footage to put on our site. All in all we're moving
onwards and upwards and welcome you to join Pink Floyd Experience
any time you can.

We now have our first recorded
demo online available naturally via our demo page linked
from above. Breathe is the first song on the list. We have
more demos to come with Money next in line to be uploaded
in the next couple of weeks once it mixed. We hope you like
our demo and hope it shows you the standards we are working
to in our aim to be the UK's leading Pink Floyd Tribute
band.

Finally we have our last
backing vocalist in place. Lindsay Martin has joined us
in the last few weeks and is really working well now with
the rest of the band, especially with the difficult task
of the backing vocals and trying to recreate the fantastic
sound of the real Pink Floyd. We'll have a photo of Lindsay
on the band page as soon as possible so you know what she
looks like. Look out for that in near future. Lindsay is
really looking forward to singing for you so please give
her a really warm welcome when you see us.

We have now added our photographs
and names to the band page for you
to see who we are in the facial sense. We are still looking
for a backing vocalist to join Louise and Marie in the band.
If you are easy going, reliable and a good communicator
and of course, you can sing and harmonize then please get
in touch with us via the contact
page and we'll arrange for you to join in on the next rehearsal.

We now have our emailing list ready to receive you. We're
going to be running some optional activities where participants
can win some VIP passes to one of our shows with back
stage access too. Be great for some younger members of
the family and possibly the parents too! Whichever way
you look at it you'll be among the first people to know
anything new about us and what dates we are planning and
where if you have subscribed.

Added some dates to the
tour dates page today. We got some more to add once the
full 2010 tour has been planned. The dates on the web at
the moment are our warm up gigs we are squeezing in to warm
us up for this Pink Floyd project. Many of us have other
commitments at the moment so the tour has had to wait to
really begin until 2010. We're still one backing vocal short
which is being worked on at the moment but there is plenty
of time for us to get the right person that is interested
in what we do. Our intention is to have the same 9 people
on stage at every gig to provide every bit of consistency
possible for our audience and us as a band too. Keep checking
back here for news updates. |
