Dear Live Music Fan,
 
COMING UP
 
FRIDAY 8th DECEMBER
 
THE FLOYD EFFECT
 
As it says on the web site
 
Perchance To Dream Another Dream
 
Following the pandemic, The Floyd Effect returned to the live circuit with its most ambitious tour to date. This highlighted not one, but two complete Pink Floyd albums – indeed, the two that are considered by legions of their fans to be the band’s most important works: Wish You Were Here and Dark Side Of The Moon, both of which continue to speak to people across three generations like no other music from the past five decades.
 
Today, The Floyd Effect has expanded upon this and taken the tour to a new level with ‘Perchance To Dream Another Dream’, which features both of these albums plus additional tracks from Meddle and The Wall, as well as a nod in the direction of Pink Floyd’s earlier psychedelic roots.
 
With members who have worked with the likes of David Bowie, Janet Jackson, Jon Bon Jovi, Brian Adams and Keith Emerson, The Floyd Effect is renowned for the remarkable accuracy with which it performs the music of Pink Floyd, and each performance is a genuine live event supported by a dramatic light show that incorporates the iconic circular screen together with the projections that help to make it a powerful and emotional experience.
 
So sit back and enjoy The Floyd Effect as the band takes you on a journey through some of the most revered music ever written. Unless you were there the first time around, it was never as real as this.

A FEW IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THIS SHOW
 
Firstly we will have a late finish any time up until say 1 a.m.
 
Secondly with all the equipment in the room (and people) it can get very warm in there. Please wear several thin layers of clothing so you can remove some if you get too hot. There will be a table somewhere for coats etc. (usually in the back corner.)
 
Thirdly strobe and laser effects are used and if you have any sort of aversion to such lighting….well you have been warned!
 
Book now at https://www.tropicatruislip.co.uk/ebook or your usual web links.
 
We have still got some spaces remaining.

SUNDAY 10th DECEMBER
 
A SUNDAY BLUES SPECIAL (AT SHORT NOTICE)
 
THE SHARPEEZ
 
The Sharpeez featuring harmonica legend Billyboy Miskimmim
 
Maximum Rhythm & Blues, classic rock, west coast jangle, rootys influenced blues with attitude ! 
 
The Sharpeez crossover blues with a rock influence pushing the boundaries through strong songs, great hooks and some scintillating playing. The cool juxtaposition between the subtle and the frenetic and the transitions from quiet to loud, is at the core of the unique Sharpeez style that is distinctive in the generic blues/rock field.
 
Featuring one of Ireland's finest - harmonica legend Billyboy Miskimmim. Billboy currently plays with The Yardbirds and Nine Below Zero,  and over the years has played with live and in the studio, some of the biggest names around.
 
The Sharpeez are old enough to know better but still they’re misbehaving with their blend of classic rock, west coast jangle and rootsy blues influenced attitude gaining recognition in the U.K and Europe.
 
If you’ve got to the age where you want to put your feet up and relax to something soothing, you'll be at the wrong gig because the Sharpeez ain't taking no prisoners. A high energy, performance of original songs influenced by Rory Gallagher, Dr Feelgood, Tom Petty, The Stones, George Thorogood, Paul Kossoff, Paul Rodgers, Andy Fraser ....... and some classic rnb (the old type) and blues.
 
Welcome to the world of the Sharpeez.
 
It is only £10 pre-booked or £12 on the door, this will be a seated show starting around 8 p.m. and finishing around 10.30 p.m.
 
Book now at https://www.tropicatruislip.co.uk/ebook or your usual web links.

LOOKING FURTHER AHEAD
 
FRIDAY 15th DECEMBER
 
LIQUID ENGINEERS (A TRIBUTE TO GARY NUMAN)
 
A welcome return to this great band who present us with a terrific tribute to all things Gary Numan.
 
As it says on the web site: -
 
Gary Numan has been cited as a major influence on acts such as Nine Inch Nails and Prince. Numan's music has been covered by acts from Beck, Blur, Basement Jaxx, Africa Bambatta, Marilyn Manson, Little Boots and many more
 
Standing within the smoke and haze effects and with the light show transporting you to the front row seat of a Gary Numan concert, Pat, without doubt, the hardest working UK Gary Numan tribute, delivers a visual spectacle from the moment he hits the stage and begins to perform an authentic NUMAN sound both vocally and of course the music .
 
With an excellent PA, live guitar, live keyboards, and with the return of his band, the Liquid Engineers, Pat offers material from the start of Numans career to his current sound.
 
Pat gives Numan fans old and new a show that will remain in your memory long after you left the venue.
 
SPECIAL GUEST: Taking to the stage for some numbers will be Ade Orange who was Gary Numan’s keyboard player for some years.
 
PLUS
 
As a supporting show we have Sound of the Crowd who will bring us a set off Electroic 80’s music from the likes of OMD, Ultravox, Human League, Soft Cell etc.
 
EARLY START AT 9 P.M. and terrific value at only £13 pre-booked.
 
Book now at https://www.tropicatruislip.co.uk/ebook or your usual web links.

LOOKING BACK
 
LIKE THE BEATLES
 
Everyone seemed to have a great time dancing the night away to this band. Nobody seemed to need Help when it came time to Get Back home.
 
We were really quite busy which was nice and what a lovely audience.
 
Thanks to you if you came.
 
I think that is all.
 
See you soon
 
 
Philip
 
PS
 
I went to see a UB40 tribute band last night, they were called WD40. They were a bit rusty to start with but got better as the night wore on.
 
I have just read that there is a small island off the coast of Italy which is inhabited by five million Sicilian people. That is the biggest number I have ever heard.
 
I do not like to brag but I just got the high score on the bathroom scale.
 
This morning I rescued the farmer's pig from drowning in the lake.
"Thank you, so much," he said.
"You've saved my bacon.
 
I've just bought some new parts for the dishwasher. Some rubber gloves & washing up liquid. She's not happy
 
For Sale: Three broken yo-yos. Open to offers, no strings attached.
 
A friend of mine went to the doctors. He was feeling very weak and tired. I asked him if the tablets the doctor gave him made a difference. He said he had no idea if they were any good as he could not get the lid off the bottle.
 
I have just been advised that a distant relative has left me a priceless watch in his will. I hope it is not a wind up.
