Nick Mason - on the road on Sunday Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Thursday, 02 November 2006
This coming Sunday (5th November) sees Nick Mason taking part in the 73rd annual London to Brighton Veteran Car Run, the world's longest running motoring event.

It attracts vintage cars and drivers from all over the world, to celebrate the introduction of the Highway Act. This permitted "light locomotives" to increase their top speed from 4mph (miles per hour)to 14mph and abolished the requirement to be preceded by a man on foot carrying a red flag!

Whilst Nick can normally be seen behind the wheel of faster cars, he has, for a number of years, entered his 1901 Panhard et Levassor into the event, and most years, has done all the driving himself - whatever the weather may bring!

Sidling quietly onto North American record store shelves at the start of this month (October 3rd, to be exact) came a slightly different looking version of the Pink Floyd's "best of" compilation, Echoes.

Released by Capitol in the US, and EMI Music Canada north of the border, the new edition features a new, biodegradable wrap. Whilst most wraps are fairly dispensible, this one actually makes a point of its environmental credentials and even suggests that you can safely discard it!

Roger Waters has been thrilling European and North American crowds over the last few months with his "Dark Side Of The Moon" tour, which has included Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason guesting on a few of the shows.

We've had many emails asking where people can buy tour merchandise from. Recently, we told you about a new webstore that had opened courtesy of Roger's official merchandisers, Bravado. They have been back in contact with the great news that the range has been expanded with more textile (clothing) items, and is due to have even more goodies available within the coming week hopefully!

1969 Floyd show radio broadcast - listen online Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Thursday, 02 November 2006
Back in August, we reported that Dutch station Radio 2 were broadcasting a string of legendary concerts, and amongst these was Pink Floyd performing part of their 1969 Concertgebouw show.

The concert, held on September 17th at the plush Amsterdam venue, was recorded originally for airing on Radio Hilversum. An hour of the recording was aired on Radio 2, consisting of "The Man - The Journey" suite. This was an early conceptual piece, which was never released in this form, although parts were later used elsewhere. It tells the story of 24 hours in the life of a man - sleeping and dreaming, getting up, going to work, and so on.

rwandjcWhat does Jon Carin do when he’s not spread across the Pink Floyd universe?

To most of our readers, the multi-talented, multi-skilled Jon Carin needs no introduction. For those who need a clue, he’s the man who has been on tour and the in the studio with Pink Floyd (A Momentary Lapse of Reason, on which he co-wrote “Learning to Fly”, and the follow up album, The Division Bell, and their accompanying tours), David Gilmour, and Roger Waters (In The Flesh Tour, since then a key part of his band on and off the stage). He also performed with the reunited Pink Floyd at Live8 at London’s Hyde Park in 2005.
