Brain Damage and A Fleeting Glimpse

Pink Floyd 1968WELCOME TO THE 26th YEAR OF BRAIN DAMAGE, YOUR PINK FLOYD, DAVID GILMOUR, NICK MASON, SYD BARRETT, RICHARD WRIGHT AND ROGER WATERS NEWS RESOURCE!

It's 2025! This year sees the 50th anniversary of Wish You Were Here, which is an incredible thought; where does the time go?!

The stunningly restored and remixed Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, digital and cinema screenings are now here - with some more cinema screenings in selected places. However you experience it, it is NOT to be missed!

There's also been three Record Store Day releases released on April 12th, from David Gilmour, Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets, and Roger Waters which are also definitely worth tracking down, either in a participating store, or online, now that RSD has finished.

Last year, David Gilmour's superb new album, Luck and Strange, was released in a variety of formats, and a selection of coloured vinyls. A limited number of concert dates thrilled crowds in Brighton and London, England, Rome, Italy, and Los Angeles and New York, USA. Rome shows were filmed for release at some point...watch this space!

The Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets 2024 Set The Controls tour revealed a band in even better form than the 2022/23 shows which managed to exceed everyone's hopes and expectations! Our sincerest hopes are that they continue, but in the meantime, there's the RSD release, and the earlier live recording from London's Roundhouse on Blu-ray, DVD/2CD, and 2LP which is really excellent.

Of course, Roger Waters read three extracts from his memoirs in October 2023 at the London Palladium, so it might not be too long before that is published...he's also working on his new album based around The Bar - we'll let you know as soon as we get all the info! Before all that though is the release of Roger Waters This Is Not A Drill Live In Prague on 4LP vinyl, Blu-ray, DVD, 2CD and digital on August 1st!

Aussie Floyd tickets up for grabs Print E-mail
Written by Matt

apfs blimp As many of you are aware, there are Pink Floyd tribute bands and shows across the world, bringing good music (played with varying degrees of success!) to local pubs, clubs and halls. With the sheer number of them, it is impossible to provide coverage of these bands, but occasionally there are rare exceptions.

We know that many of you enjoy the Australian Pink Floyd show, and they are currently on a huge tour of the UK. They are also playing in Sweden shortly. Taking in UK venues that will be well known to the Floyd fan, they are even playing at the same venue in Manchester as Roger Waters himself will be in May - a testament to their success.

And we've got a pair of tickets to the show of your choice to give away!

apfs in maltaThe band promise all the normal bells and whistles - light show, lasers, projections and inflatables (with a subtle, and suitable, difference) - and a setlist for the two and a half hour show running the gamut of the real Floyd's career.

With a number of ex-Floyd crew on their staff, the show is an impressive one, with a good balance of great musicianship and eye catching visuals.

To win that pair of tickets, simply email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it and tell us the answer to the following question:

  • Who hired the Aussie Floyd for their 50th birthday party?

Get your answer to us, along with your address, a contact telephone number, and which date from the following schedule you'd like to see the band, by 11:59pm on April 25th.

UPDATE: COMPETITION CLOSED - the winner is: Miriam Jones, from London, who'll be seeing the band at the historic Royal Albert Hall! Well done to Miriam and better luck next time to those who weren't picked from the many entries received.

We'll draw the winner the following morning and get in touch with that person with the good news!

Please, only one entry per person, and good luck to all of those who enter!
