The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains” comes to Dortmund

One of the most successful bands in music history takes a look behind the scenes of its more than 50-year history. “The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains” provides both rare and extraordinary insights.

From September 15, 2018, the multimedia interactive exhibition will be on display in Dortmund’s U, a highly visible landmark of the city and long established as a center for art and creativity. Tickets are available in advance at Eventim.de and from June 18th at all Eventim ticket agencies.

After visiting London and Rome, Dortmund is the first and only stop in Germany until February 10, 2019 – an exhibition that previously caused a sensation in the English and Italian capital.

The unique interactive exhibition in the Dortmunder U, which not only appeals to fans of Pink Floyd, looks back on more than five decades of rock history. Capturing the visitor so intensely in sound, text and image as if he or she were standing in the middle of the stage.

Featuring previously unpublished concert recordings, original instruments, unknown notes and many personal memorabilia from members of the British cult band make “The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains” an absolute must for music lovers.

 

The Dortmund U

Address : Leonie-Reygers-Terrasse, 44137 Dortmund, Germany

Tel : +49 231 5024723

The Dortmunder U is a cultural center with international appeal and the most impressive building in Dortmund. It was built in 1926/27 as the first high-rise building and beer factory of the Union Brewery.

Crowned with a light pyramid, the ferry and warehouse was one of the most modern buildings at that time.

Since 2010 the Dortmunder U with its unique installation is a center for art, culture and creativity. The U is one of the youngest and most innovative houses in Germany, about 70 per cent of the guests are under 50 years.

Last year the Dortmund U was awarded the “European Cultural Brand of the Year”.

The exhibition opens on September 15th, and runs until February 10th 2019.

Guy Pratt : Inglorious Bassterd Hits Halifax

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on by


Guy Pratt has been a crucial member of the rhythm section of megastars such as Pink Floyd, David Gilmour, Robert Palmer, Roxy Music, Bryan Ferry, Jimmy Page, David Coverdale, Womack & Womack, and The Smiths.

And when he’s not been parading his talents live on the stages of every stadium, concert hall and festival around the world, he has been a favourite studio bassist and accompanying singer for the biggest recording artists including Switzerland’s Florian Ast, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Iggy Pop,The Pretenders, Echo and The Bunnymen and McFly.

His one man show is all about life at the pointy end of the music business; Guy regales audiences with stories from behind the scenes. His self-deprecating wit is irresistible and his rip-roaring anecdotes are brilliant and outrageous.

This is an evening which is both funny and frank with enough insider’s references to satisfy even aficionados – and he’ll be bringing his beloved vintage Fender bass to demonstrate his craft.

The show is taking place on Wednesday 17th October 2018, 8.00 pm at The Lantern, 13 – 15 Alexandra St, Halifax, West Yorkshire HX1 1BS

Tickets are now on sale now for the event, Which is priced at the very reasonable rate of ÂŁ15 plus ÂŁ1.50 booking fee.

Pink Floyd, Nick Mason & Roger Waters Feature In UK’s Prog Magazine – Issue Number 88 – Available In Stores Now !!

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on by
Hot off the shelves todays is this months new issue of the UK’s Prog Magazine – Issue Number 88 this months issue has a strong focus around Pink Floyd’s 1983 album The Final Cut which was the last Pink Floyd record to feature Roger Waters.

The Cover piece advertises the main article which is about the making of The Final Cut and how the album shaped the future for both Floyd and Roger Waters ever since. The feature is very detailed and gives a brand new fresh look at the project, and also includes archive interview material with Roger, David Gilmour, keyboard player Andy Bown, engineer Andy Jackson, and photographer Willie Christie, in which hes discusses developing the idea for the very short The Final Cut Film .

Futher on from the main article there is also an exclusive feature with Roger in which he discusses his current Us & Them Tour, Plans for filming the shows, and other things he is working on.

Further in the magazine is a page and a half looking at Nick Mason’s new Saucerful Of Secrets project, including an in depth full page review of the recent Dingwalls concert, which marked the band’s first ever live performance.

According to former Pink Floyd bassist Roger Waters when asked if he was working on anything Pink Floyd related, Water’s replied: “Yeah. I’ve just been working with Po. There’s a re-issue of Animals. A 5.1 mix of Animals so I’ve been working… Well I haven’t been working, he’s been working. He came up with some new photographs of Battersea Power Station as it is now to use as a CD cover for the new 5.1 mix. It’s beautiful.”

Pink Floyd released Immersion box sets of two of their biggest albums in 2011- Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here and The Wall, which followed in 2012. And a 20th Anniversary Deluxe Box Set of The Division Bell was released in 2014. But Animals has never been accorded such an honour.

As yet, there is no official word from the band’s record label, who have recently been reissuing the band’s catalogue on new 180g vinyl – most recently Relics and Pulse. And it is not known if the proposed release would form part of a bigger set – CD does not support 5.1 so it would have to be released on Blu-ray. However judging by Waters’ comments, watch this space…

Prog Magazine is available in most UK magazine outlets and alternatively can be bought internationally online courtesy of myfavouritemagazines.co.uk by clicking this link.

Nick Mason : Announces 3LP + CD Boxset Entitled – Unattended Luggage

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on by

Released on August 31st, 2018 is ‘Unattended Luggage‘, a three album CD or vinyl box set of my albums ‘Nick Mason’s Fictitious Sports‘, ‘Profiles‘ and ‘White of the Eye‘.

These limited edition box sets will be available shortly before our acclaimed new band Saucerful Of Secrets begin their European tour at Cirkus in Stockholm on September 2nd.

“‘Profiles‘ and ‘White of the Eye‘ were an extension of working with Rick Fenn on some advertising and short documentary film soundtracks, which then developed into something more.

“Listening back after 30 odd years, I’m delighted they are getting the reissue treatment. I’m rather hoping that sales will be sufficient to damage the market in the original rare vinyl versions!” – Nick Mason

The three individual albums will all be available as a download and through streaming platforms.

MG Studios recently let slip that Roger Waters had been laying down some piano in their studio.

We did a bit of detective work and found out that Roger has indeed been working with Audio Engineer and Producer & multiple Latin Grammy award winner Mike Miglin.

Whilst we cannot confirm what the intention of the session is for we can only hope this the start of the follow up to the very sucessfull Is This The Life We Really Want? album which was released in June 2017.
