We reported at the end of last week that Roger Waters was due to appear on the MSN chat site last night, answering questions submitted by fans relating to his newly released opera, Ca Ira.

At the last moment, we received an email advising that due to scheduling problems, the webchat has been postponed. As yet, a new date for the interview has not been set. As soon as we know, we'll pass on the details.

Roger is currently hard at work in New York, being interviewed by various printed media, radio and television stations. A couple of interviews have already appeared, the first in the newspaper USA Today, yesterday.

Following on from our news last month about the long-awaited release of four of Unicorn's albums on CD, we are very sad to bring you the news that Pete Perryer, Unicorn's lead singer and drummer, died suddenly of a heart attack on September 6th.

Tony Palmer, the director of some rare, 1968 footage of Pink Floyd performing three takes of Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun, has been in contact with us, wishing to pass his comments and clarification on concerning the film, which has recently been offered for sale.

Some of the footage, which was shot for the BBC, was used in the 1968 documentary All My Loving, which was recently repeated as part of BBC4 TV's look at the sixties.

Over to Tony...

Further to our news item last month about the official 2006 Pink Floyd calendar, we have had an update from the company producing it. The calendar will not be ready for another three to four weeks, as the band have requested some image changes to include Live 8 shots.
