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!

David Gilmour interviewed in Scotland Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Wednesday, 31 May 2006

David Gilmour was interviewed last week by Scotland Today, the news programme on Scottish TV. The conversation was aired on Monday (May 30th), and the chat with him can now be seen online.

Stills from Scotland Today, May 30th
The version on their website is longer than the broadcast version, and includes footage from the Clyde Auditorium show in Glasgow alongside David's comments.

In the interview, which lasts nearly four minutes, David is asked why he has gone on the road. "The alternative is sitting around on my backside! I still enjoy making music, and getting out and doing a few shows once in a while is good for the soul..."

He is also asked the inevitable question about Live8, and the future of the band. "I have no great desire to do that again. If the right moment came up at some point, to do another one-off of that sort I don't suppose I'd look too harshly upon it, but I certainly don't intend to go out on tour with Pink Floyd. It's in the past for me..."

The interview is in Windows Media format, and can be seen at scotlandtoday.scottishtv.co.uk. Whilst short, it is interesting, and you get to see a snippet of David Crosby, without his sidekick Graham Nash (who didn't attend the Glasgow show due to family reasons), doing a solo backing vocal on the title track from On An Island.

Our thanks to John Kilbride from Scotland Today/STV for the info...
