This electrifying multi-dimensional show received raving reviews during the past seven years and hundreds of die-hard fans of the most successful rock bands of all time who attended the shows, were taken aback by the authentic sounds and captivating story.

Crazy Diamond takes the audience on a scintillating two hour journey following the history of Pink Floyd, as seen through the eyes of Keith Barrett - aka Syd to his friends - and paying tribute to this master musician. Barrett was one of the founding members of Pink Floyd and even though he only stayed with the band for the first two years, his influence on the band continued long after the departure through their following 40 years or so existence. 

Audiences will feel electrified as they follow the Pink Floyd story which highlights Barrett’s influence he had on both the band’s style of music and the lyrics they have written over the years. It also sheds light on the band’s early influences; explains why their work often contains very long songs with elaborate free flowing solos and discusses their innovative use of modern technology and Musique concrete.

“Crazy Diamond” covers a wide spectrum of Pink Floyd’s music and will soon have die-hard Floyd fans or just your regular “rocker at heart” enjoying the sounds of music ranging from the band’s first album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and continuing the journey through A Saucer Full of Secrets to the more “modern” Floyd music of The Wall to A Momentary Lapse of Reason and the last Pink Floyd album The Division Bell.

Over 30 songs will be performed along this scintillating journey of rock at its very best, including Jugband Blues, Echoes, Speak to Me, Breathe, Happiest Days of our lives, Another Brick in the Wall, parts 1,2 and 3, The Dogs of War, Shine on You Crazy Diamond and many more, all ensuring the audiences will be provided with a never to be forgotten show!
