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!

Roger Waters interviewed in European press Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Wednesday, 30 March 2011

On Monday, Croatia's Vecernji List newspaper had a nice, prominent interview with Roger Waters in the print edition of their publication (and available online for those with a subscription).

Our friend Bran tells us that "the article is highly politicized and I think the journalist might have misunderstood some things. Anyway, Roger is saying that he heard about our young protesters on the streets and the corrupt politicians and that he is totally for protests agains the government. The headline is: 'Croatians must protest. Your ex-Prime Minister is in jail and the country is run by corrupt politicians'. He also stated that he wo'nt put pictures of our victims from the war on the wall, the usual 'I don't know what will happen with the Floyd story, if David calls for another reunion like Live 8 he'll be happy to join in...

"He mentioned that he has a lot of new material piled up and that he will release a new album when he'll find some concept that will link it all into something coherent. The rest of it is basically world wars, great differences between the poor and the rich, talks about unneccesary interventions of US and UK in Iraq. Nothing spectacular really, but it's nice to see the great Rog speaking to Croatian journalists and seeing this in our newspapers."

Our thanks to Bran for his help in bringing this information to you.

Elsewhere, as Manuel Mariño Reino tells us, Roger's Wall tour was the subject of a nearly 15 minute piece on Spanish TV, which you can view on demand through this link. Naturally, it's full of spoilers for the show, so don't watch if you don't want to see what occurs prior to attending an upcoming show!
