Have You Got It Yet? The Story of Syd Barrett + Pink Floyd (12A)
Screening as part of our First Tuesdays strand, when we screen a select rockumentary, keeping the bar open and the drinks flowing. For each event we will collaborate with a local business, musician or artist.
This screening is in collaboration with psych-noir band, Column 258 who will introduce and play live before the screening.
Cult icon, enigma, recluse... the life of Syd Barrett, founding member of Pink Floyd, is full of unanswered questions. Until now.
Piecing together his comet-like rise to pop stardom, his creative and destructive impulses, breakdown, exit from the band and subsequent life alone, this feature length documentary is set against the social context of the explosive sixties.
Directed by Storm Thorgerson (Hipgnosis) and award-winning director Roddy Bogawa, it features new interviews with Syd’s friends, lovers, family and band mates Roger Waters, David Gilmour, and Nick Mason.
