Fans attending the Toronto International Film Festival's screening of 'Roger Waters The Wall' tonight will be able to help Roger celebrate his 71st birthday, which is today. Many happy returns, Roger!

It has been confirmed that Roger and co-director Sean Evans will be walking the red carpet for the premiere of the live concert film at the Elgin & Winter Garden Theatre in Toronto tonight, which starts at 8:30pm. There are two more public screenings in Toronto of the film during the coming week. As yet, no details are available of when it will be released on DVD/Blu-ray.

Roger started his Wall tour in Toronto back in 2010, so it brings things full circle to launch the film there. Cameron Bailey, TIFF’s artistic director, noted how Roger wanted to reconnect with Toronto audiences: "The great thing is he's actually doing it twice: the Saturday night at the Elgin and the Sunday at the Ryerson. He has promised that he will attend both screenings to introduce them and do a Q&A, and he's very excited about this. He's a rock god and this is an amazing thing."

For all of you fortunate enough to be attending, have a great time and don't forget to tell us all about it! Any pictures of the red carpet arrival or the Q&A session would be much appreciated, too.

In 2007, the fourth edition of Storm Thorgerson and Peter Curzon's Mind Over Matter, the book celebrating the iconic imagery of Pink Floyd, was published.

Seven years later, on November 30th this year, the revised edition is published, incorporating an additional 32 pages of material used in re-issues created since 2007. Before his sad passing last year, Storm revisited the work he created for the albums and offered insights into the work that went into the creation of this legendary album art.

Designers who worked with Storm have also contributed to this new edition of Mind Over Matter. Amongst the new material is artwork from the Oh By The Way box set, the rather wonderful Atom Heart Mother 40th Anniversary 'Wire Cow' sculpture, the Why Pink Floyd? Campaign and the Dark Side Of The Moon 40th Anniversary images and stickers.

For those who haven't seen previous editions, the book features the images from Pink Floyd's album sleeves and promotional material designed for the group. It features almost all Pink Floyd's iconic album covers, posters, singles bags, a selection of band photos, booklet pages and rough artwork that developed into iconic designs. Thoroughly recommended, of course!

The Perfect Earth Project Family Picnic Concert held on Saturday, August 30th, included Roger Waters joining the artists performing at the event, which campaigns for toxin-free garden maintenance. Ticket prices started at $250...

Held at Cindy Sherman's house in the East Hampton area of New York, the fundraiser also included Rufus Wainright, The Persuasions and G.E. Smith alongside Roger, who was reported to have performed a new song for the occasion. Laurie Anderson, Martha Stewart and Kim Cattrall were also in attendance. The following picture shows Roger on guitar during the event:

As many of you will be aware - and a number of you will be excitedly waiting for the show you have scarce tickets for - Kate Bush started her set of 22 performances on Tuesday night. The hugely anticipated shows, called “Before The Dawn”, are Kate’s first full performances in 35 years, and are taking place at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.

As expected, rumours quickly spread that David GIlmour - who suggested Kate to EMI, leading to her being signed and given a recording contract - would perform with her during the shows. We've had many emails asking about this. Unfortunately, rumours such as this are easy to start, and don’t rely on any grounding in truth!

For those who are, however, interested in a Floydian connection to the shows, none other than Jon Carin, multi-instrumentalist and a key member of Pink Floyd for their final tours, and more recently, a cornerstone of the Roger Waters and David Gilmour solo bands, is performing with Kate. He has been working with her on the project for 10 months.

It sounds like the work has been worthwhile - reviews of the initial shows have been extremely enthusiastic, and we’ve purposefully avoided any spoilers in this article!
