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! 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!

Your Pink Floyd highlights of the year Print E-mail

Our friends over at Floydstuff.com recently ran their second annual poll of Pink Floyd related items - your chance to vote for your favourite (and least favourite) things of 2005, whilst standing a chance of winning a nice prize.

The results were announced yesterday, and make for interesting reading, not just because many of you were kind enough to vote for Brain Damage as your favourite Floyd website.

We came a very decisive first, with 78.3% of the votes, with our sister site, A Fleeting Glimpse coming in second place! Our thanks to all of you who voted!

The full results of the poll, which can be found here give a good idea of what you liked and didn't like last year, and your hopes for this year.

Your favourite Floyd related event of 2005 was clearly Live 8, with only 0.3% of people NOT voting for this! The lack of PULSE DVD in 2005 was the biggest gripe, with 46.9% showing their feelings, and 25.6% disappointed that no Pink Floyd reunion tour was announced.

Turning to releases, the Live 8 DVD was the favourite of many (38.9%), with the Ca Ira CD/DVD set close behind (23.3%) and Nick Mason's Inside Out book in third place (19.2%). The audiobook version of Inside Out also figured, reaching fifth place.

Looking to the future, it is clear what most are wishing for, with a Pink Floyd reunion tour (52.5%) and album (12.3%) heading the list, closely followed by the heavily anticipated David Gilmour concerts in March - May this year (10.1%). One wonders how many of the top ten wishes for 2006 will come true by the end of the year!
