A barely believable three and a half years since their last visit, Pink Floyd tribute The Floyd Effect returned on Saturday 6 October to play a further benefit gig for The Marble Project at the Plume Academy, Maldon.
This was their third appearance for the charity, and the first for which tickets sold out well in advance, reflecting the ever greater appreciation for the band with each succeeding visit!
The set list for the first half began with four tracks from The Division Bell, followed by two from each of Wish You Were Here and Animals and finishing with one from The Wall. The second half comprised the entire Dark Side of the Moon plus perennial audience favourites Wish You Were Here and Comfortably Numb.
During a concert that lasted the best part of three hours, the musicianship was impeccable as always. Thanks to Mark, Gordon, Garry, Kerry Maria and Sofia, and especially to John and Tiffany for making the trip only eight weeks after the birth of their baby daughter!
Thanks also to the Oakhouse, Blackwater Printing, and everyone who came. Our forthcoming projects will benefit from the amazing total of almost £4,800 raised through ticket sales and on the night!
