With thanks to José Abellán over at the Spanish Pink Floyd magazine, "Animals", we have details for the Tribute to Syd Barrett, being held from today until September 18th.

With thanks to our friends over at Pyramid Posters, we have three copies of the Storm Thorgerson designed Pink Floyd 2005 calendar to give away in this competition! The calendar, a large format, glossy colour production (with an extract from the front cover shown to the right), features twelve separate images, all celebrating the album Wish You Were Here.

We've had an update today from the editor of the forthcoming Q/Mojo Magazine Pink Floyd special, which we reported on back in July. You may recall, they wanted to find out the fans all time top 20 Pink Floyd songs, and asked for your lists to be emailed over to them for compilation.

With the magazine undergoing its finishing touches - in around 10 days, the presses will start rolling - they have given us some information about the contents. Roger Waters and Nick Mason have both been interviewed (separately) exclusively for the publication, as have dozens of past collaborators and friends of the band.

Further to previous news items about the long-awaited DVD release of Pink Floyd's 1994 concert recording of PULSE, we have been in frequent contact with the band's management about the progress.

When we last spoke a week ago, they were still optimistic that all the loose ends would be tied up for what would probably (or indeed hopefully) be a late October release. Previously, they were aiming at a date at the start of that month, but a few problems became clear that have resulted in the slippage. They have assured me, though, that a fantastic job has been done with the concert on what will be a two-DVD set. Initially there were some technical issues with the transfer, but these have been resolved, and they have promised us full details courtesy of the people involved in the transfer.
