The Dutch TV documentary screened this evening on Syd Barrett, as noted in our news pages last month, was a showing of the BBC documentary, which has been released as "The Pink Floyd And Syd Barrett Story" (reviewed elsewhere on this site). Our thanks to PP Arnold Layne for confirming this information so quickly after the programme finished.

A poll for UK station Virgin Radio has named Queen's "A Night At The Opera" as the ultimate album as voted for by the listeners to the station. Thousands of votes were cast, based on DJ Daryl Denham's shortlist of "albums you really should own". The Beach Boys "Pet Sounds" was second, and "Dark Side Of The Moon" came ninth, beating the highest placing of a Beatles album ("Revolver" at number nine). Somewhat surprisingly, no other Floyd album appeared in the top fifty.

The official Pink Floyd website (found at www.pinkfloyd.co.uk) was updated late yesterday to include very nicely done coverage of the 30th anniversary edition of Dark Side Of The Moon. The new home page also has links to the Echoes site (which has been available for some time now), the David Gilmour media player (also available from this site on our downloads page), and the vastly improved message forum, which is dramatically better than the old version (despite the odd lunatic wandering on there to post "amusing" comments).

Some updates on news stories posted in March: the Oasis gig at Maine Road, to have a last big bash there before redevelopment, has been denied by the band themselves, who state that the gig is not now happening. Also, it looks like David Gilmour's appearance on David Letterman's Late Show is now not happening - the schedule for this week's show is remarkably DG-free, unfortunately.

Finally, Roger and Nick's appearance for interviews at the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame tomorrow also looks to be cancelled (if indeed it was ever really scheduled). All three of these news stories appeared in a number of sources.
