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!

Wish You Were Here - top ten Pink Floyd gigsPink Floyd's official Facebook page are this week canvassing the opinion of fans around the world. As we all know, the band have played some very notable concerts over the years. A number of fans (including a few of us from BD) have deliberated on this to come up with a shortlist of ten key shows, selected on the basis of great performances, or for being significant for various reasons, and they'd like you to vote on them to determine the show that you would most like to have attended (or the best gig you did attend, if you were so lucky!).

They are asking for you to rank their top 10 in order; all 10 will be listed and you will be able to drag and drop them into your own preferred 1-10, and then submit it. You've got until Friday (October 14th) to do this, and as part of this, they have a prize up for grabs of a signed Wish You Were Here fine art print for one lucky entrant in their "check-in challenge".

For more details, and to see the shortlist and vote, visit the Floyd Facebook page and click on the Wish You Were Here tab on the left hand side, or click here to go directly to it.

UPDATE: Voting has now closed and on Monday (October 17th) the gig which ended in tenth place was announced...the Royal Festival Hall, April 14th 1969 show. The Facebook app shares pictures, music, the set list and other information about this concert - and will do for the rest of the top ten as and when they all get announced.
