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!

Live 8 DVD - more details Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Tuesday, 27 September 2005

The official Live 8 DVD website has had some updates in the last couple of days.

The DVD is set to feature the historic reunion between Roger Waters, and Pink Floyd, and includes more than just the set they played on 2nd July, with the inclusion of rehearsal and interview footage of the band.

The website - www.Live8LiveDVD.com - now gives the full tracklisting of the fourth DVD, which consists principally of extra material. See below for the details. It also has been updated with a gallery of pictures from the event, taken by various people (and four of our site's shots have made it into their selection!).

Coming soon to the site is an exclusive Sir Bob Geldof podcast, with the man himself talking about "the highs, the lows, the headaches and the triumphs as he and his team co-ordinated this historic event". You'll be able to download the juicy inside stories straight from the man who was pulling all the strings. As a taster, here's Geldof on asking Pink Floyd to reform: "I said [to David Gilmour] 'Dave you didn't even say goodbye to people' but he just wanted to do small stuff; so he played me three of the tunes he was doing now and I advised him to take quite a lot of speed."
