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!

Guy Pratt is the Sideman - Stroud, Glos, March 2018Next Friday, March 9th, Guy Pratt takes his hilarious one-man show to The Marshall Rooms in Stroud, Gloucestershire. Guy Pratt is the Sideman celebrates more than 30 years as bass player to many of the biggest names in music, from Pink Floyd to Roxy Music, Michael Jackson, Madonna, and many more. Find out the truth of what it is like to tour and record with such people, with Guy's candid and very funny storytelling boggling the mind at times!

Doors to the event open at 8pm, and tickets are now available through Ticketweb.uk.

If you can't attend Guy's show next week, there's another opportunity as, just announced is his appearance at the 2018 Borris House Festival of Writing and Ideas. The three-day event, which takes place from the 8th to the 10th June, is held in Co. Carlow, Ireland.

Guy's appearance currently looks to be Friday, 8th June, but interested attendees should check with the organisers before purchasing their tickets. Other musicians also appearing in the festival include Viv Albertine from The Slits, and Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones.

Borris House is said to be one of the most spectacular houses in Ireland. It sits at the foot of the Blackstairs Mountains, on the banks of the River Barrow, in the small village of Borris in the hinterland of South County Carlow. In case the festival sounds familiar, David Gilmour and Polly Samson appeared at the 2015 staging.

Weekend and day tickets for the event are now on sale, through Eventbrite.ie. In early April they will release limited tickets to individual talks.
