Roger Waters will be at Mexico City's National Cinematheque on 30th September to present the new documentary "The Occupation of the American Mind: Israel's Public Relations War in the United States", which is narrated by him.

Taking advantage of his visit to Mexico City giving two concerts at the Foro Sol on 28th and 29th September, prior to the pair of shows in California for the Desert Trip event, the musician will be taking the opportunity to talk about this documentary that criticises the US role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The screening and presentation by Roger will take place at 8pm as part of the first edition of Focus Camp, a forum for audiovisual distribution. For more information, visit micgenero.com.

Just posted is a newly created video celebrating the lovely, pastoral Roger Waters track Grantchester Meadows, coupled with a Pink Floyd performance of the track which appeared on BBC radio, on 12th May 1969.

The soundtrack of the video, below, features acoustic guitars and vocals from Roger Waters and David Gilmour, plus additional piano from Richard Wright and taped songbirds, evoking a summer’s day in Grantchester, a small village close to Cambridge, England. The performance footage is from the KQED TV broadcast in San Francisco, 1970. The full recording of the KQED show is on the upcoming Pink Floyd: The Early Years 1965-1972 box set, as is the BBC radio session. Full details of the 27-disc box set can be seen here.

A month ago today, we told you that Eagle Rock Entertainment are releasing the live concert film Face The Face by Pete Townshend's Deep End as a DVD and CD set this month - on September 16th 2016 to be exact. This is the first official release of the band's third and final full length concert, which was captured by the German TV series Rockpalast at MIDEM in Cannes on January 29th 1986. We now have full ordering links for you, which we know some of you have been waiting for.

The recording features David Gilmour on lead guitar throughout and the set includes a mix of Townshend and Who classics such as Face The Face, Secondhand Love, Rough Boys, Give Blood, Won't Get Fooled Again, Behind Blue Eyes, Pinball Wizard and more.

As on the existing Deep End in Brixton live disc, Gilmour is included performing Blue Light from his 1984 album, About Face. 

Around of the time of the Deep End shows, Townshend had this to say about Gilmour: "Among players — particularly among British players — he's incredibly highly rated — adored, I'd say. And he has a way of putting incredible feeling into everything that he does. I suppose technically, he's very good. But that’s not the important thing. The important thing is the way that he plays."

Here are the ordering links - using these will give a small but vital contribution to the running costs of Brain Damage, without costing you a penny/cent extra, and we really appreciate it!

Just a quick head's up for all of you who have irritatingly free diaries for the end of this month...

Final production details have been completed for David Gilmour's Royal Albert Hall shows later this month, and a number of additional tickets have now been made available for those quick off the mark.

As noted on the Floyd's Facebook page, these are all premium seats – Boxes, Stalls, front row of the Circle, and Arena (the floor of the venue), and there are tickets for all five nights available.

These are now available through this link at the Royal Albert Hall website, as well as the RAH box office. As before, to make things fairer for all, the standard restrictions still apply: tickets are restricted to four per purchaser across all five nights, who will need to attend armed with their picture ID.

Good luck for all of you trying to get these prized tickets... to the left you can see the new design t-shirt which commemorates David's concerts held in recent years at the Royal Albert Hall. Click to view in more detail.
