Over the last couple of years, and in what could be almost seen as a bit of a Christmas present to the fans, Pink Floyd have quietly released a number of 1973 live recordings on the various streaming services, such as Spotify (https://www.spotify.com), Apple Music (https://music.apple.com), YouTube Music (https://music.youtube.com), Amazon Music (https://music.amazon.co.uk) and also the band’s official YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/pinkfloyd). The quality is rather variable – by the very nature of the unofficial, audience recordings – but the shows give a fascinating look at the concerts performed at the time of release of The Dark Side Of The Moon. The 1973 recordings released are listed with dates and venues as per the original bootlegs, and show as: – March 6th: Kiel Opera House, St Louis
– March 7th: Chicago International Amphitheatre
– March 8th: University of Cincinnati
– March 10th: Kent State University
– March 11th: Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto
– March 14th: Boston Music Hall
– March 17th: Radio City Music Hall, New York
– May 18th: Earls Court, London
– May 19th: Earls Court, London
– June 17th: Saratoga Performing Arts Center, Saratoga Springs
– June 18th: Roosevelt Stadium, Jersey City
– June 20th: Merriweather Post Pavilion, Columbia
– June 28th: Sportatorium Hollywood Florida
– October 12th: Olympiahalle Munich
– October 13th: Vienna Stadthalle
– November 4th: Rainbow Theatre (Early Show)
– November 4th: Rainbow Theatre (Late Show) As with the batches released the last couple of years focused on 1971 and 1972, these are not expected to be around for long, and won’t be released physically on CD or LP, so make the most of them over the holiday and new year period before they disappear! Our thanks to those who emailed to let us know about these.
Announced this lunchtime: Toronto has been confirmed as the seventh location to host The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains, the magnificent and critically acclaimed major retrospective of Pink Floyd, their music and the impact the band had on art and culture. Canada sees the exhibition remain on its shores having recently staged it in Montreal. Following its hugely successful debut at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum in 2017, which saw over 400,000 people attend, the exhibition has subsequently traveled to Italy, Germany, Spain and the United States attracting well over 500,000 people and will now take residency in the cultural hub of Toronto. The Exhibition opens on Friday, June 16th, 2023, and is being held at the Better Living Centre at Exhibition Place in the city. Tickets go on sale Friday, May 26th at 10am EST. The Better Living Centre should be a good venue for the immersive experiential journey through Pink Floyd’s world. The band played in Toronto a number of times, as have the individual members of the band on their solo tours. The exhibition normally runs for a while, and once we have the anticipated closing date, we will update this story. “After a hugely successful run in Montreal this past year, it was time to bring The Pink Floyd Exhibition to Toronto to rock the summer,” said Michael Cohl, Executive Producer of the exhibition and Canadian Promoter of Pink Floyd. “It’s only fitting since Pink Floyd has such strong ties to the city, notably the sold-out 1987 shows that launched the next phase of their storied career. I am thrilled to be able to present this exhibition in my hometown where we can all celebrate Pink Floyd’s legacy.” “Pink Floyd has an enduring history in Toronto starting with their premiere concert in 1973 at Maple Leaf Gardens; and having performed at Exhibition Stadium seven times during the 80s and 90s,” said Darrell Brown, CNE CEO. “The CNE has a rich musical legacy, and we are honoured to be hosting this incredible retrospective on the grounds where many of their most memorable Toronto concerts took place. The CNEA is proud to be part of this extraordinary exhibition that brings the history and music of Pink Floyd in a new light.” To purchase tickets for the exhibition, and for more information, please visit PinkFloydExhibition.com (http://www.pinkfloydexhibition.com) and as before, advance booking is highly recommended as popular times and dates will no doubt sell quickly. Ticket prices include the excellent audioguide which attendees to previous stagings of the exhibition will know is an extremely well designed facility which will really enhance your visit. Each day of operation the first entry is at midday (12pm) and evening tickets (normally after 6pm) are more expensive. There’s also a VIP package available to purchase. Here are the hours each week that you can visit the exhibition, of which you really need to allocate at least two hours to get around: Monday: Closed
Tuesday â Thursday: 12pm to 10pm (last visit)
Friday â Saturday: 12pm to 10pm (last visit)
Sunday: 12pm to 10pm (last visit) For more information about the exhibition, you can also check out the various articles here on Brain Damage, or, as mentioned above, visit www.pinkfloydexhibition.com (http://www.pinkfloydexhibition.com).

With uncertainty over surges of Coronavirus cases, the January/February 2022 tour dates for Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets in the US and Canada were postponed. Rearranging existing tour dates (particularly at the moment with the heavily increased demand from all artists affected) must be incredibly difficult, as the available venues must be the right size for the act, and in a vaguely logical geographical location so bands and crews aren’t zig-zagging their way across a country in an unsustainable way. However, after what we suspect has been a huge amount of work behind the scenes, the revised US and Canadian tour has now been announced. The difficulties in sorting a revised schedule are evident in that, sadly, six gigs have had to be cancelled. These are: Cincinnati which was originally on February 1st, St Louis on February 8th, Memphis on February 9th, Kansas on February 10th, Sacramento on February 23rd and Spokane on February 27th. For all of you holding tickets for these shows, the point of sale should be in touch with a refund. The better news is that these six cancelled gigs, have been replaced by eight new shows (in different locations). There are also three of the existing shows that have moved venues, within the same cities – Washington DC, Phoenix AZ, and Vancouver BC. For rescheduled shows that will be taking place at the same venue, all previously purchased tickets will be valid for the new date. For all shows being moved to new venues, customers will be automatically refunded for their purchase and offered an exclusive presale opportunity for the new venue and date. Further information will be sent directly to the original ticket holders by email shortly, and for any additional ticketing inquiries, fans should reach out to their point of purchase. The sale of tickets for the new shows starts on FRIDAY, MARCH 25th 2022 at 10am (local time), via Ticketmaster (https://www.ticketmaster.com/nick-masons-saucerful-of-secrets-tickets/artist/2602669) and other normal agents.
