Brain Damage and A Fleeting Glimpse

Pink Floyd 1987WELCOME 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?!

We now know that Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, digital and cinema screenings are on their way, with the releases on May 2nd, and the cinema screenings shortly before. 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!

Two new Roger Waters tracks online - update Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Sunday, 22 August 2004

Further to our recent items regarding the news that Roger Waters will be making two new tracks available soon on the internet, for his fans to download, we have now received a confirmed date for the appearance of the tracks, and also clarification of the rumours relating to the appearance of these tracks on the Michael Moore Fahrenheit 9/11 soundtrack.

Roger's manager Mark Fenwick contacted us today with the news that his (ie Roger's) two new songs which will be available to hear on his Sony website - RogerWaters.com - on Friday September 3rd. He also advised that they will also be available through the recognised download sites (the i-Tunes website, and SonyMusic.com as well), either as a pair or individually from Tuesday September 7th.

The two new songs are "To Kill The Child" and "Leaving Beirut", as originally advised elsewhere on these news pages, and not the song called "Berlin" that was seemingly misquoted in an interview with Roger in the latest "Hampton Jitney" magazine, the local news magazine of the Hamptons region, where Waters appeared on August 7th presenting selections from his forthcoming opera Ca Ira.

In this same interview, Roger mentioned that "Sony has given [the two tracks] to Michael Moore [documentary film maker] who is putting together a compilation which will have something to do with Fahrenheit 9/11." However, Mark today scotched this, stating that neither song will appear on the 9/11 album. We're not sure though, if this has changed since Roger gave the interview.

Finally, in other Waters-related news, our friends over at RogerWatersOnline have reported that a feature film is being made that will be based around the 1983 Pink Floyd album, The Final Cut. The album, which many fans consider a Roger Waters solo album in all but name, was the subject of a video EP with four tracks from the album. The videos were shown in rotation at the Interstellar exhibition in Paris last year. The forthcoming film will not include this original footage, but at this stage, details are too sketchy as to the nature of the story and content of the film.

As soon as we have more information on this project, we will let you know.
