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!

Pink Floyd and Roger Waters veterans Scott Page & Robbie Wyckoff launch project Print E-mail
Written by Ed Lopez-Reyes   
Wednesday, 25 July 2018

Think Floyd Experience - concert, July 25th 2018Scott Page, saxophone and rhythm guitar player during Pink Floyd's "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" era has joined forces with Roger Waters veteran vocalist Robbie Wyckoff. The two are now part of an all-star band that will play Pink Floyd music. The band, Think Floyd Experience, will be streaming their first performance, taking place in West Hollywood, this evening (Wednesday, 25th July, 2018), on the Ignited Network.

These days, there is a sea of tribute bands – not just for Pink Floyd but for many other classic acts as well. Page, asked about what sets the Think Floyd Experience apart, said:

"Our intention is to extend the Pink Floyd legacy - but the idea is to bring a very high tech and experience-based element to it. Tech will be a big part of the experience. We're focusing a channel on the Ignited Network on the project and live streaming our first gig. The channel, Pink Floyd Exp, will eventually be on blockchain, etc. We plan to make Think Floyd Experience a virtual reality endeavour."

What sets the project apart is the history and the prominence of the musicians involved.

Page and Wyckoff are joined by Jane's Addiction's Stephen Perkins on drums, Fishbone's Norwood Fisher on bass, Kid Rock's Kenny Olson and Jon Stankorb (of Signs of Life, the American Pink Floyd – a tribute band of its own) on guitars, and Roberta Freeman, another Momentary Lapse of Reason tour alumnus, on background and lead vocals.

Page and Wyckoff met through Olson who had played with the two in separate projects. Page, in turn, met Olson through Fisher when they played a NAMM show related gig at the House of Blues in Anaheim (the Nights After NAMM All-Star Mash-Up) earlier this year.

But it was a gig with Fisher's band, Trulio Disgracias, which cemented things: Page and Perkins were guests with Trulio Disgracias at Los Angeles' famous The Mint club for a performance of "Wish You Were Here." During that performance the musicians got a vibe that they had a good thing going. Page had worked with Perkins in the past: he played on Jane's Addiction's 2003 album "Strays."

The concert begins at 8:30pm Pacific Standard Time (11:30pm Eastern Standard Time and 4:30am British Summer Time). Think Floyd Experience will perform at 9:15pm (Pacific Standard Time, or 12:30am Eastern Standard Time and 5:30am British Summer Time).

For those who are familiar with 80s movies, actor and musician Corey Feldman will be making a guest appearance.

In order to view the show live or otherwise (and access some of an obscure catalogue of behind-the-scenes videos and collectibles from Page's time with Pink Floyd) if you are unable to attend in person, you need to register on the Ignited Network at this link: Ignited Network Scott Page Invitation. This is for iOS devices, so iPhones, iPads and iPod Touch devices.

Proceeds from this event will go to the Harold Robinson Foundation.
