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!

Waters 2006 tour - full band confirmed Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Sunday, 26 March 2006

As Roger Waters' 2006 summer tour of Europe moves ever closer, we have a handful of updates for you today, including the confirmed band line-up, and details of ticketing for a couple of the shows.

Roger Waters
Roger Waters at Live 8
(exclusive to Brain Damage)
Firstly, the band line-up, which will be supplemented by Nick Mason for the second half of the Magny-Cours show which will feature the Pink Floyd 1973 classic, Dark Side Of The Moon, played in full (and perhaps extended, going by what various promotors are claiming!).

Here's who will be ably supporting Roger on stage:

  • Andy Fairweather Low – Guitar
  • Snowy White – Guitar
  • Dave Kilminster – Guitar and Vocals
  • Jon Carin – Keyboards
  • Harry Waters – Hammond
  • Ian Ritchie - Saxophone
  • Graham Broad - Drums
  • Katie Kissoon, PP Arnold and Carol Kenyon – Backing Vocals

Quite a line-up... one name that might not be familiar to many will be Dave Kilminster. He is a highly respected guitarist, who is currently working with Keith Emerson. It is also interesting to note that Jon Carin will be starting his tour with Roger, just after finishing David Gilmour's. A busy chap!

Turning now to ticketing, and tickets for the Istanbul show go on sale next week, through Biletix.com - although exactly which day isn't clear yet.

Finally, the tickets for Roger's Athens, Greece show were released today (27th March) for personal callers to the box office, and their price is 50 euros presale, 60 euros if you buy them on the day of the show, and 100 euros for the VIP tickets. The tickets cannot be bought online yet...

Our thanks (as ever) to Roger's manager for his help...and to Okan DOGU for the Istanbul ticketing info, and George Kargiolakis of pinkfloyd.gr for the Athens ticketing info.
