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 and cinema/IMAX screenings, and a book, 2Blu-ray, 3DVD, 4LP, 2CD and deluxe box set options have now been announced.

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!

Storm Thorgerson - Los Angeles exhibition launch Print E-mail

storm 2007 launch in Los Angeles - outsideThe première of Storm Thorgerson's US exhibition of "Mind Over Matter: The Images Of Pink Floyd" took place on Saturday October 13th in Los Angeles, at the Mr. Musichead gallery on the legendary Sunset Boulevard.

We first told you about the event back on June 27th, including the chance to win a one-off airbrushed car or Les Paul guitar. Brain Damage was of course on hand to check out the event, chat to Storm himself, and bring you pictures and information about what to expect...

Visitors got a chance to see prints of some of his most celebrated work on display and to purchase copies of his new book "Taken By Storm", along with the re-print of "Mind Over Matter" which is not available in retail outlets as of yet, but visitors had the chance to purchase advance copies on Saturday night!

Spectators were clearly in awe of the large scale reproductions and photo reprints, amongst them famed photographer Ross Halfin. "Taken By Storm" is a collection of all his various works with different artists, while the exhibition is centered around his work with Pink Floyd and the book "Mind Over Matter" which always seems to be the main draw!

Throughout the night Storm greeted visitors and kindly signed their books. The exhibition runs through November 10th, so if you're in Los Angeles, be sure to take advantage of this rare opportunity and witness the iconic imagery of Storm Thorgerson.

Mr Musichead Rock Art Gallery can be found at 7517 W Sunset Boulevard, in Los Angeles, California - visit www.mrmusichead.com for more details and directions.

The following pictures give an impression of just a handful of the many beautiful Pink Floyd prints on display in the gallery. In the flesh (no pun intended) the art really comes alive, and offers much more detail than can be afforded in the slightly limited realm of the CD cover.
