David Pocock, one of the three winners of our recent Australian Pink Floyd Show concert ticket competition, was at the O2 Arena show in London the other night and got in contact with us to share his thoughts on the event (and the prize!).

As you know, the Aussie Floyd are long-time friends of Brain Damage, having travelled to the UK for their first shows here, kicking things off in style at the first BD International Fan Convention, way back in 1993! They are proving incredibly popular to this day, performing sell-out concerts around the world. David's review, below, shares his view on why this is the case... If you've not seen them yet, tickets for the remaining shows on the UK tour are still available through Ticketmaster.co.uk or Seetickets.com - don't miss out on a show that so many Floyd fans rave about!

On the new (official) Facebook page set up for the Roger Waters Wall tour, there's a posting this evening from Roger himself detailing exactly who is in the touring band for what are shaping up to be truly spectacular shows.

There's no news yet on shows outside of North America, but we're hoping its not going to be long now before the details are revealed. Our thanks to you out there for your patience; we know from the many emails we're getting that there's some degree of frustration and eagerness to find out. Rest assured, we won't keep anything from you, especially now we're back from being trapped half-way around the world thanks to a certain Icelandic volcano which caused a few headaches here!

And now to Roger's announcement...

There's plenty of information flying around about the forthcoming Roger Waters Wall tour of 2010/2011. The latest comes courtesy of Rolling Stone, who bring the good news for all those outside North America that there is the intention of Roger to "move on to Europe for another 57 dates beginning in March. Waters says he'd like to take the show to other territories, including South America". Just as soon as we have those dates, we will let you know. We're also currently getting the tour room ready which will have a page for every single concert, packed with information for that show. For those attending the show, we'll have full ticketing information for that event, venue details including a map, and more. Each page will also be a repository for your reviews, comments, and photos from the show, and we know that when we've done this for previous tours, some VERY important and key personnel from the tour (including the musicians!) have eagerly sought out your views on how the shows have gone!

In other Wall tour news, there's been confirmation that there will be no female backing singers, as expected, and the backing vocal duties are being carried out by Venice's Kipp, Mark and Michael Lennon. They've confirmed this on their own website.
