(a.k.a. ''The Architectural Abdabs'', ''The Screaming Abdabs'') with Roger Waters ( Lead Guitar ), Rick Wright ( Rhythm Guitar ), Nick Mason ( Drums ), and Keith Noble & Juliette Gale ( Vocals ). They were known as Sigma 6 , ''The T-Set'', and ''The Meggadeaths '' as well as adopting the various ''Abdab'' monikers. They played Rhythm & Blues covers and some original material by the band's manager, Ken Chapman. The group was "available for clubs and parties", according to their calling card. Following (or because of) the marriage of Wright and Gale in 1965 , Noble, Gale, and Metcalfe left the group. Syd Barrett ( Guitar and Vocals ) and Jazz Guitarist Bob Klose ( Lead Guitar and Vocals , replacing Metcalfe) joined Waters (now "demoted" to Bass Guitar ), Wright (moved to Keyboards and Organ ), and Mason (still on Drum s). Klose left after a short tenure, unhappy with the direction of the band. Barrett took over lead guitar and the bulk of the Vocal & song writing duties. The remaining quartet went on, eventually becoming the Pink Floyd . After leaving the band, Metcalfe returned to his artistic roots as a goldsmith and a painter, also as a tutor at the Sir John Cass School of Art. He established his own gallery in 1999 with his wife, Christa Metcalfe-Hofmann, in Deal, Kent . Some of Metcalfe's works have been displayed in the Bridgeman Art Library and in exhibitions.
