It's the UK Pink Floyd Experience.

Ah, I've heard good things but yet to see them. A review and photos would be appreciated 👍

So it was better than the fare served at SMS this lunchtime. Seriously though, I would recommend the UKPFE. It was a real mixed bag of a set which was great. Starting off with Money and followed by Take it Back from The Division Bell, the rest of the opening was taken up with most of side 1 of DSotM. First impressions were very favourable. I was wondering particularly how Great Gig in the Sky would go but the female vocalist pretty much nailed the Claire Torry bit which isn’t easy. If I had a criticism she was ever so, ever so slightly screechy at very highest notes. From there it came forward a decade with Yet Another Movie and Sorrow and then High Hopes from The Division Bell before they delved into Wish you Here stuff either side of the interval doing them all justice including the eponymous song. The second half opened with Shine on you Crazy Diamond 1-9 and here the second backing singer deserves absolute kudos with baritone and tenor sax on board at the same time switching between the two almost seamlessly. Then there was a tribute to Syd Barrett  with Lucifer Sam before they went  full on The Wall. I thought this was excellent from Thin Ice to pt 1 and 2. It was capped off by an excellent version of Comfortably Numb. All in all well Worth it. 
The venue was surprising. A proper Georgian Corn Exchange reflecting Newbury’s agricultural heritage and its importance in the agricultural revolution with the intro of poor relief through the Speenhamland System.

Ah, looks amazing - love the choice of some of those tracks, far more eclectic than APF for sure, which tends to play it very safe. Really glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the review. I'll make sure I look for them next time they're down my way 👍
