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!

Win tickets for the Aussie Floyd's 2010 UK tour Print E-mail

Aussie FloydAs most of you are aware, there are many Pink Floyd tribute bands and shows across the world, bringing good music (played with varying degrees of success!) to local pubs, clubs, halls and even major arenas. With the sheer number of them, it is impossible to provide coverage of these bands, but occasionally there are rare exceptions.

However, the Australian Pink Floyd show are old friends - they first performed in the UK back in 1993 at the debut Brain Damage fan convention - and they are just about to start another major tour of the UK. And thanks to the promoters, three lucky Brain Damage visitors will each get a pair of tickets to a show of their choice!

"On this tour we will play a 'Greatest Hits' type show rather than one complete album. It will give the fans a chance to see and hear many of their favourite Pink Floyd songs performed live" says singer and bass player Colin Wilson. "We will of course bring a huge light show with us again, so it's definitely a show not to miss!"

"In 2009 we performed the complete 'Wall' album for its 30th anniversary. In 2010 we will perform all the favourite Pink Floyd songs from across their whole catalogue. Anyone who has ever liked Pink Floyd will love this new show" adds singer and guitarist Damian Darlington.

To be in with a chance of one of the three pair of tickets to see the band at the venue of your choice, you need to answer the following question correctly:

- What was the venue for the Aussie Floyd's performance at the 1993 Brain Damage Fan Convention?
- True or false? The band performed at David Gilmour's birthday party.

If you struggle to find the answers elsewhere, you'll find them at www.AussieFloyd.com.

You need to email your answer to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it with "Aussie Floyd" in the subject line. Include your name, address and phone number, as these will be needed if you are one of the winners.

You have until 11:59pm BST on March 15th to get your entries in to us. Good luck!
