Pink Floyd 1968 WOW - it's now the 27th YEAR of Brain Damage, your Pink Floyd, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Syd Barrett, Richard Wright and Roger Waters news resource!

Marking the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd's iconic 1975 album, a range of Wish You Were Here 50 celebratory editions: deluxe box set, blu-ray, 3LP set, 2CD set and coloured vinyl single LPs came out at the end of last year. Full details here. The LA 1975 concert, recorded by Mike Millard and remastered by Steven Wilson, came out as a standalone item on 4LP for Record Store Day, and 2CD across most of the world.

The stunningly restored and remixed Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, and digital was also released in 2025 - and is NOT to be missed. As is the 4K UltraHD edition out now!

Also last year, celebrating the concerts to coincide with David Gilmour's album, Luck and Strange, cinema/IMAX screenings, and a book, 2Blu-ray, 3DVD, 4LP, 2CD and deluxe box set options were also released and are getting very high praise.

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 their 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 much longer 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 which is out now.

Roger Waters 2006 - London concert added

Written by Matt

Tuesday, 07 March 2006

With yet another show added today, and the likelihood of a US tour in the Autumn, Roger Waters is making 2006 a busy year! The show added is part of the Hyde Park Calling festival being held in London, on July 1st and 2nd, with Roger headlining the first day.

He will be performing Pink Floyd's 1973 classic "Dark Side Of The Moon" in its entirety as part of his set. This will be Roger's only British performance, with the Cork show in Ireland on June 29th being the next nearest show. The Who are headlining the second night of the festival, showcasing a new album from them, the first for some 24 years.

Hyde Park Calling, sponsored by the Hard Rock Cafe, promises to be an interesting event, with a main stage, second stage and "many surprises in store for music and festival fans of all ages". Texas have been named as support for Roger, and other acts are expected to be confirmed soon.

Roger Waters said about the show: "I really enjoyed playing Live 8 last year, so appearing at Hyde Park Calling will be great".

Individual day tickets and weekend tickets will be available, at £42.50 per day or £80 for the whole weekend (plus booking fees).

The presale of tickets started today (8th March) for those who register with TicketRush.co.uk, and the general sale of tickets starts at 9am on Friday, 10th March, through TicketRush.co.uk, Ticketmaster.co.uk, and www.getLIVE.co.uk. There is also a telephone hotline which is: 0870 400 0688 (24 hours).

Don't forget to visit our dedicated page for the concert, which will gradually build with information, pictures and more.

Our thanks to Roger's management for their help, as ever.
