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 UK tour dates now in! Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Thursday, 05 April 2007

guy prattWe know that many of you will be thrilled with the following news - an extensive set of UK dates for Guy Pratt's one-man, stand up comedy show "My Bass And Other Animals".

Guy, of course, first got heavily involved with Pink Floyd back in 1987, touring and recording with the band ever since. Last year, he was also a key part of David Gilmour's band during the On An Island jaunt. His experiences have given him some great material as part of his recollections of life on the road and in the studio, for this tour and for his forthcoming book...

guy pratt Those who have seen Guy's "My Bass And Other Animals" show will know how hilarious it is, taking the audience through his musical history, involving such luminaries as Madonna, David Crosby, Michael Jackson and David Bowie, alongside sections on life with Pink Floyd and David Gilmour.

The book of the same name, to be published next month by Orion Books, promises much more, and should be an essential purchase for all!

my bass and other animalsTo order a copy of the "My Bass & Other Animals" book (at time of writing with a healthy discount), for delivery upon release, you can use the following special links: Amazon UK, Amazon Canada, Amazon Germany, or Amazon France. Please note that all the Amazon stores will ship the book worldwide. Also, using our Amazon links helps with the running costs of the site and we really appreciate it!

Guy is currently touring with Bryan Ferry in what is an excellent show - another not to be missed, playing the UK and Europe between now and mid-July, taking in major shows such as the Princess Diana Tribute Show at the new Wembley Stadium, and the Instanbul Jazz Festival.

More details of the dates, venues and ticketing for the Ferry tour can be found over at www.bryanferry.com.
