Big Brain Damage Christmas prize giveaway! Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Thursday, 13 December 2007

With the Christmas holiday at the end of the month, we thought we'd put together a bumper sack of goodies to give away! We also wanted to celebrate the end of the first year of our new design website - we've found it a positive change, and we hope you have too. We're working behind the scenes on some new features and enhancements which will appear next year, that we hope you'll like.

However, back to the competition. With DVDs, books, and tour programmes amongst the prizes, there should be something of interest for everyone...

Wednesday, 12 December 2007

Whilst we're sure that you don't need reminding, tonight sees the (UK) BBC1 TV hour-long documentary "The Pink Floyd Story: Which One's Pink?" broadcast. It airs at 10:45pm GMT (11:45pm in Northern Ireland), and promises plenty of unseen footage, and all new interviews with each band member.

And if this isn't enough for you, Nick Mason will be interviewed on BBC London radio again this coming Saturday (December 15th). He'll be on Gary Crowley's show, which airs from 6pm (more details here), and like all BBC radio stations, can be heard online live, and on-demand for up to seven days.

spiderpigThose of you in the area of London around Battersea Power Station this lunchtime should look to the beautiful blue skies... aloft between the chimneys is the large, inflatable Spider Pig, recreating the cover of Pink Floyd's 1977 album Animals! Many of you will recall that recent bad weather forced a last minute cancellation of the flight of the character from The Simpson's Movie, but today's clear conditions proved perfect. Our thanks to Jamey Khan for the pcture to the left - click the thumbnail to see it in more detail...

UPDATE: Pictures can be seen at the BBC and Guardian websites, and a great selection can be found at HolyMoly! Video can be seen at ITN's website, and the following official video of the event:

Mark Blake's Pink Floyd biography - US publication date Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Monday, 10 December 2007

mark_blake_comfortably_numb_coverComfortably Numb: The Inside Story Of Pink Floyd, Mark Blake's superb biography of the band (published in Europe under the title Pigs Might Fly), goes on sale in the US in all major bookstores from December 31st, 2007.

Drawing on his own interviews with all of the band members, plus almost a hundred new interviews with the group's friends, road crew, producers, designers, former house mates and university colleagues - some of whom have never spoken before - as well as musical contemporaries including Pete Townshend and Alice Cooper, the book follows Pink Floyd all the way from the early psychedelic nights at UFO in the mid-sixties to the fragile, tantalising reunion in Hyde Park, and we found it a truly captivating and absorbing read. Our review will be on the site shortly, but in the meantime this new, US edition can be ordered direct from Amazon.com at a healthy discount.
