Late this afternoon, Brain Damage was contacted by the Roundhouse with the sad news that the May 2003 Festival, posted yesterday and set to feature David Gilmour - has been cancelled. The Festival was to be an eight day event, a fitting way to mark the closure of the old Roundhouse prior to building works starting on June 2nd.
The main reasons for the cancellation were given, including the following: "In the middle of the war it was felt that we could not go ahead with a major, potentially lavish fund-raising event at this time and a number of artists were concerned about being involved in a major festival, particularly those coming from abroad...". Our thanks to the Roundhouse for keeping us in the picture about this festival.

The high-end audio specialist website, High Fidelity Review, managed to get the only advance copy of the Dark Side Of The Moon SACD, and have reviewed it here. Naturally they have access to the best possible equipment so give it a very close technical assessment. (Our thanks to the number of readers who have let us know about this). Review copies are today being issued to the rest of the media in the US, in advance of the title hitting American shelves tomorrow (March 25th).
Naturally, we shall be forming our own view on this new version, but we are keen to hear what YOU think of it, from the packaging, to the music itself. Let us know, and a selection of your comments will be posted on this site.
