One of (many)
highlights for attendees of the 2008 Syd Barrett "City Wakes" Festival in Cambridge were the guided tour of the city that took in many of the more significant sites which were connected to the life and times of Syd, and the various bands which lead to Pink Floyd.
Since then, the people behind the tour - personal friends of Syd, who grew up with him - have run their own special tours of Cambridge, to much acclaim.
As we told you back in March, they've now partnered with Brain Damage for a very special pair of
tours, inviting you to discover some of Syd's 1960s Cambridge through the unique memories of those who knew him best, and who still live in the city. With some spaces left on both tours, we thought it best to remind you of the details so you can secure your place on what should be a fascinating look at the area.
Your guides will take you around the city centre with as many stories
and anecdotes that their memories will allow. It will be unscripted, and
largely unrehearsed. Your guides may even disagree over some things.
The number of people who come back for subsequent tours gives an idea of
how much fun they are, and how fascinating the memories are.
The tour dates which have been arranged are July 17th, and September
11th (both Saturdays). There will be 15 places on each tour and the cost
will be £15.00 per person. We'll also be there on the July tour, so if
you're coming, make sure you say hello! Please

, the chief guide, to book your place(s) on your chosen
date. After he confirms your place, he will then trust you to turn up
on the day and pay then. Warren said "Let's bring a little trust into
this cynical world!"
All tours meet at the front of the Guildhall, Market Square and start at
10.30am, so if you will be travelling to Cambridge, make sure you give
yourself enough time so that you don't miss the start. The tours are
meant to last about two hours but in reality it's nearer three hours (or
more), as the memories and stories start flowing from those who really knew Syd and the others.
Don't miss this great opportunity to discover Syd's city. For more
information on the tours, the guides, and what to expect, visit their
website which is www.I-SpySydInCambridge.com.
