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!

Roger Waters interview and Pink Floyd exhibition feature in Uncut Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Tuesday, 16 May 2017

Uncut magazine, cover date July 2017The new issue of the UK's Uncut magazine (cover date July 2017) arrives in UK shops on Thursday, and in due course will be available in selected outlets in Europe and elsewhere, and features Roger Waters on the cover.

Uncut have previewed the magazine thus: 'The small matter of 25 years after his last rock album, an urgent, raging Waters has returned, with much he needs to say. Is This The Life We Really Want?, according to producer Nigel Godrich, gives Waters a "reboot in the same way The Force Awakens gave Star Wars back to the fans." And in our exclusive interview, Waters elucidates. "It's not much of a leap from 'Is This The Life We Really Want?' to 'Money', 'Us And Them' or 'Welcome To The Machine'," he says. "They're all interconnected in ways that are… unsubtle."

'There’s plenty to talk about, of course, as Pink Floyd's retrospective exhibition opens at the V&A in London and Waters plots his imminent Us + Them live extravaganza. In a wide-ranging conversation with Michael Bonner, Waters touches on Floyd and The Beatles, 9/11, Brexit ("All through my youth I fought the Farages of this world"), Bernie Sanders and, of course, Donald Trump. "There’s a resistance everywhere," he says. "I want people who come to the show, particularly in the United States Of America, to understand that what I'm doing is symbolic of the general resistance to the absolute inhumanity of the status quo."'

The magazine can be purchased online through Newsstand.co.uk although not right now; this new issue will be shown there shortly, so we suggest you give it a few days before trying.
