Pink Floyd 1968WOW - it's now the 27th YEAR of Brain Damage, your Pink Floyd, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Syd Barrett, Richard Wright and Roger Waters news resource!

Marking the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd's iconic 1975 album, a range of Wish You Were Here 50 celebratory editions: deluxe box set, blu-ray, 3LP set, 2CD set and coloured vinyl single LPs came out at the end of last year. Full details here. The LA 1975 concert, recorded by Mike Millard and remastered by Steven Wilson, came out as a standalone item on 4LP for Record Store Day, and 2CD across most of the world.

The stunningly restored and remixed Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, and digital was also released in 2025 - and is NOT to be missed. As is the 4K UltraHD edition out now!

Also last year, celebrating the concerts to coincide with David Gilmour's album, Luck and Strange, cinema/IMAX screenings, and a book, 2Blu-ray, 3DVD, 4LP, 2CD and deluxe box set options were also released and are getting very high praise.

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 their 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 much longer 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 which is out now.

Ca Ira performance postponed Print E-mail
Written by Matt

The world premiere performance of Roger Waters' Ca Ira, being held in Poznan, Poland, has just been postponed. The show, due to be held on July 7th, is now being held on August 25th, the promotors have confirmed.

Roger Waters Ca Ira in Poznan, Poland
Roger Waters Ca Ira
Poznan, Poland
Many of you will know that Ca Ira was performed in Rome, in November 2005. However, the Polish show differs from those, as it will involve a number of costumed actors, along with appropriate sets and scenery. The Rome shows were simply musical performances, just using projections to put the story across.

A stack of information about the Polish show can be found on our Poznan show page.

The reasons for the delay, shown on the organizer's website (www.vivaart.com.pl), are not given there. However, we now know that the delays are due to "new production concepts" by Waters and Jozefowicz. They want to use an additional third stage and need to employd additional artists. "The key point for us is an artistic value of the show, and it takes time", said co-producer Marek Szpendowski. The formula created in Poznan will be replicated in other countries, so they want to do it perfectly.

The new date is a little curious, as David Gilmour will be performing in Gdansk's Shipyard on the following day - August 26th, as part of his 2006 tour. It could be quite challenging for Pink Floyd fans to attend both shows...

At time of writing, the official website for the show - www.Ca-Ira.wp.pl - still shows the original date for the performance. We expect that this will be updated shortly.

Our thanks to Marek Grzesiak for his help in bringing you this information.
