Brain Damage and A Fleeting Glimpse

Pink Floyd 1987WELCOME 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?!

We now know that Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, digital and cinema screenings are on their way, with the releases on May 2nd, and the cinema screenings shortly before. 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!

Nick Mason's New York appearance - additional info including Roger Waters Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Friday, 22 April 2005

Further to our news about Nick Mason's appearance in New York this week (most recently, yesterday), we have a selection of additional pictures, and information about the event - and that unexpected appearance by Roger Waters!

Roger, who has a home in New York's Hampton's area, went for a meal with Nick following the book signing duties at Barnes & Noble. Nick confirmed this in his interview on the syndicated "Rockline" radio show.

When Brain Damage's Elliot Tayman bumped into Roger, after leaving B&N, he asked Roger about The Wall coming to Broadway. He told Elliot that he's actively writing the stage script and hopes to open the play in a year or so. We've now had a selection of pictures from Linda Heath, who was with Elliot at the time - and took the picture of Waters shown above.

After Roger permitted Linda to take the shot of him, she showed him what Nick had signed in her copy of the book (shown below) - which made him chuckle!

Earlier on, in the Q&A session, Linda had the opportunity to ask two questions of Nick. The first related to the rumour that David Gilmour's new solo album may turn into a Floyd album. Nick said that he'd heard the same thing, but that he had not yet been approached by anyone to play on David's album. So, not out of the question, just not happening yet.

She also asked about Clare Torry's court case. With the case settled out of court in her favour, Linda asked if this meant she got a song writing credit. He said that as far as he knew, that part of it was still not settled. "So evidently she got money, but so far no credit".

Our thanks to Linda Heath for the additional pictures, and the information.
