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!

Nick Mason at 2008 Goodwood Revival Festival Print E-mail

nick mason - goodwood revival 2008 At the weekend, Nick Mason returned to Glorious Goodwood in the heart of Sussex, in the south of England, for the 10th Anniversary of the Revival Meeting. This famous, classic motoring event, held over three full days (September 19th-21st) also marked the 60th Anniversary of the post-war racetrack opened by Lord March's grandfather.

Nick, who committed to the event some time ago, made it a family event sharing the racing honours with wife Annette and daughter Holly. The weather was perfect for this event and Nick's cars were turned out superbly.

The 1959 Maserati Tipo Birdcage was brought home safely with Nick securing a place in the middle of the pack. The wife and daughter partnership held a strong position in the 90 minute two-driver race in the 1949 Frazer Nash Le Mans Replica.

But it was left to Nick's favourite car, the beautiful Ferrari 250 GTO, to achieve a top ten position in what was claimed as the race of the tournament for many years, the one hour RAC TT Celebration - a two driver race with Marino Franchitti.

This was a great result in a very strong field and Nick was clearly delighted with the teams efforts. Always the gentleman, Nick chatted with race enthusiasts, signed autographs and posed for numerous photographs. The sun was shining again!
