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!

Guy Pratt - first London West End show next week Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Monday, 17 October 2005

Further to our story last month about Guy Pratt's first London show, we've heard this week that there are still a few tickets left for his appearance next week. However, these are expected to go quickly in the remaining few days, so you should get yours now to guarantee getting in to what promises to be an interesting and very funny show!

Guy, who we recently had the pleasure of interviewing, has recently staged a very successful one-man-show in Edinburgh looking at his long musical career. Recently described as "Pink Floyd's bass player for when the band are arguing", he has worked with them since 1987, in the studio and on the road, along with other legends such as Madonna and Michael Jackson. His show covers his experiences with all these people.

The extremely positive reaction to the Scottish dates has resulted in the scheduling of his first West End show, which is being held on Monday 24th October at the Sound Theatre, Swiss Centre, Wardour Street in London. Showtime is 7.30pm, and tickets are available from 0870 890 0503.

Guy recently wondered if there was any interest in doing a "Floyd special" version of the show - just about his experiences with them - for the Floyd community. We had a large number of emails from you asking him to do such a show, and passing them on to Guy. He was impressed by the comments received and we are hoping that the Floyd special show happens at some point. We know he's got a wealth of stories relating to his time with the band (indeed, he is currently recording with David Gilmour for his [David's] solo album), so the show should be unmissable!
