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 and cinema/IMAX screenings, and a book, 2Blu-ray, 3DVD, 4LP, 2CD and deluxe box set options have now been announced.

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's stage designer on new DVD Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Tuesday, 02 December 2003

Brain Damage was recently invited to the press launch of the new, four-disc Rolling Stones live DVD, entitled "Four Flicks". The first three discs cover the three difference types of show they performed on their last tour - from tiny club to stadium show (perhaps the Floyd should consider this tactic on their next tour?!) in full surround sound. The fourth disc has a couple of fascinating looking documentaries on the tour, including one where Mark Fisher, who has long designed Pink Floyd's stages, does his best to "sell" his concepts to the Stones.

Interestingly enough, some of the stage furniture from the 1994 Floyd tour can be seen on the Stones stadium stage, showing that the spirit of recycling is not dead!

This would not be the first time that Fisher Park (his design company) have reused items - for example, the lifts/elevators used for the bricklayers in the Wall concerts, were used in 1982 for Whitney Houston's concerts.

From the excerpts that we saw from the set, this title, which has just been released (and can be ordered through the Amazon links on our home page), looks an absolute must, even if you are just a casual Stones fan. They know how to put on a spectacular show, and the recording looks and sounds stunning as well... we're hoping that Santa Claus pops a copy of this in the Brain Damage Christmas stocking!
