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 appearing at tonight's Hall of Fame gala |

Tonight saw the Long Island Music Hall of Fame 5th Induction Awards Gala, held at The Paramount, in Huntington, New York.
Amongst those inducted were concert promoter Ron Delsener, and Roger Waters was lined up to be the one inducting him. According to press reports, Roger was also said to be scheduled to perform, as well as Dionne Warwick. However, the organisers have since told us that these mainstream press reports were incorrect, and Roger was NEVER scheduled to perform during the event, but just present "Uncle Ronnie" (as Roger called him during the ceremony) with his award. Others being honoured included record producer Clive Davis, the Billy Joel Band, lyricist Gerry Goffin, producer Steve Thompson, singer Debbie Gibson, rapper Kurtis Blow and DMC of Run DMC.
At the time we posted this story originally, tickets were still available from Ticketmaster.com and from the Paramount box office on 631-673-7300. General seating tickets were $75 and $150.
Our thanks to the team at the Long Island Music Hall of Fame for their help post-event to clarify matters relating to the nature of Roger's appearance at the event, which (for those who recall reading this story originally) resulted in this news item being revised and clarified.
