Further to our previous news items about the "Taken By Storm: The Art
of Storm Thorgerson" exhibition, we now have a collection of dates and
venues in the US and Europe of forthcoming showings.
The exhibition features many of Storm's classic Floyd images alongside
work for other bands such as Muse, Mars Volta and The Cranberries. It
features a wealth of absorbing images, and is a great look through
Storm's career to date - certainly not to be missed.

Sadly, PP (Pat)
Arnold's father has passed away, just 3 months after Pat's mother. They
were married for almost 64 years and will now be together again. Pat
thanks everyone for their prayers and good wishes, and our thoughts are
with her and her family at this sad time. She is obviously due to
perform at Roger Waters' upcoming US shows, and it isn't known at this
time if this will delay her rejoining the tour. Our thanks to José Abellán for passing on the information from Pat.

Studios, on Tuesday, August 29th. Studio One is where many classic
orchestral scores and recordings have been made over the years, from
film soundtracks through to orchestral segments on David's "On An
Island" album.
