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!

Pink Floyd film at Abbey Road Studios - reminder Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Sunday, 13 March 2005

As we first revealed on February 6th, the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London will be open to the public for the first time ever from this coming Saturday, presenting a two week season of films scored at Abbey Road. As part of the Abbey Road Film Festival, the movie "Pink Floyd The Wall" will be screened in Studio 1, the world's largest purpose built recording studio.

The Festival marks the 25th anniversary of Abbey Road's involvement in the film scoring business. Studio 1 will become a cinema for the duration of the Festival, with a 350 seat capacity. There will be 3 screenings on each of the 16 days of the festival, with a selection of films scored at the Studios over the last quarter of a century, as well as a few other films associated with the Studios.

Ticket holders will be able to visit the famed Studio 2 where some of the greatest rock and pop recordings of all time have been made, from The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, and beyond. Dark Side Of The Moon and Sgt Peppers are just two of the classic albums to have resonated off the studio walls during their creation.

They are also staging a photographic exhibition which "will contain treasures from the world of film and music." We've been advised that amongst these will be at least one shot of Roger Waters and David Gilmour hard at work in the studios. Many of the pictures on display will also be available to purchase.

The Abbey Road Film Festival will run from March 19th - April 3rd 2005, with "Pink Floyd - The Wall" being screened on March 23rd at 12pm, and March 26th, again at 12pm. The Studios themselves can be found at 3 Abbey Road, London NW8, and full details can be found at www.abbeyroad.com. Booking is now open through the dedicated box office - telephone 0870 606 3433 in the UK, +44 870 606 3433 outside the UK.

Ticket sales are going very well - indeed, the films relating to The Beatles are now all sold out (although, of course, some can be found on eBay!). Tickets for The Wall are still available but we would urge anyone interested to book soon to avoid missing out on an unique experience.
