 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.

Thursday, 08 September 2016 |
Next weekend, September 17th and 18th, a two-day exhibition celebrating founder member of Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett, takes place in Italy.
Staged by the Floyd webzine Us And Them, Syd Barrett: Unforgettable Diamond is being held at Teatro Comunale, Viale della Repubblica, in Alessandria. Their exhibition will remember the life and work of Barrett and will tell his story with the words of his friends, along with the thoughts of those for whom Barrett made an impression through his music or art.
Included during the event will be an exhibition of records and memorabilia, video shows and live performances. Doors open to the exhibition at 3:30pm on the first day, and at 5pm the concert performances start, with Lodovico Ellena (ex-Effervescent Elephants) and La Forma Delle Nuvole (with Dario Antonetti founder of The Vegetable Man Project) playing a selection of Syd’s songs.
The second day sees the doors to the exhibition open at 10am; at 5pm a symposium dedicated to Syd begins, with Luciano Cassulo, Giulia Di Nardo-Spies, Stefano Girolami (member of the Lunatics – Pink Floyd Collectors
Club), Nino Gatti (another Lunatic, presenting his book "Syd Barrett – Alle Soglie Dell'Alba").
