A friend of mine told me about the Rolling Stone Pink Floyd edition. I really need to get to a bookstore and pick it up.Sas:
My kid picked up the recent Rolling Stone mag featuring Pink Floyd at the check out counter the other day and I was like 'yes, I want that!'. If you haven't seen it I highly recommend it. I'm on vacation and listening to a different album every day while on the beach in Hanalei. Aloha!
Take it to the PF.So apparently some fragile conservatives have been triggered by the anti-Trump message in Roger Waters' tour so far.
My thread and it's Pink Floyd related. So no. I won't.Take it to the PF.

The same stuff he's been railing about for *checks watch* about 50 years now. Anyone going to a Roger Waters or Pink Floyd-related show should know that there's going to be a strong political message. They've always been that way and always will be. Maybe the butthurt parties were feeling a little guilty about what they caused?What was Waters railing about now?

Yeah that's the same video he's been using for Pigs for the last year. Hell, I posted the video earlier in this thread.Well yeah, you have a Brit with questionable sanity doing this:
"As Waters performed, images of Trump depicting him without pants, with an exposed penis, women’s breasts, lipstick, a KKK hood, his head leveled on a pig and the word “charade” written across his face were displayed."
How could that possibly upset anyone? Don't we get enough of this on CNN and MSNBC?
And I don't usually find myself taking political advice from celebrities - especially those from a country with a monarchy.
Why can't he just rail against the Nazi's and cruel teachers? I like that Roger Waters.

Waters is staunchly anti-Trump, but he's always been anti-government in general. I also prefer Gilmour in almost every measurable way except as a lyricist, which Waters is one of the best ever. Gilmour is just a flawless guitar player and has an incredible voice, as well. Hopefully he'll go on tour one more time before he hangs it up.No kidding... I should have been paying attention.
I'm more of a Gilmour guy - is he also lamenting the US political situation or is he just kicking musical ass?

SQ and I are seeing Waters in Tampa in July (the day after Paul McCartney), and I'm keeping myself in the dark about the setlist, want it to be a surprise. I've heard good things so far, though.
Simple!Apparently Mr. Waters hates him some Jews, too.

“During my research,” Halperin continued, “I came upon Roger Waters, and I couldn’t believe he was singling out Israel when there are so many truly egregious violators of human rights in the world. Why is he going after Israel? So, I began asking people what this guy has against Israel. To me, an attack on Israel is an attack against the Jewish people.”
“While Waters speaks about ‘tear[ing] down wall,’ he is one of the leading musicians today erecting the very walls that hinder peace in the region and fuel hatred. This hatred not only affects the state of Israel, but Jewish communities worldwide, as well as all those who care about human rights and democratic principles.
BDS leaders often claim that the purpose of the BDS movement is to champion Palestinian rights. However, this is highly misleading. As illustrated by extensive research and documentation, the objective of BDS is the complete elimination of the state of Israel as the nation state of the Jewish people. It seeks not to condemn specific Israeli government policies, but to unjustly target Israelis, Jews, and all those worldwide who stand in support of the Jewish state. The tactics of utilizing immoral double standards and strategies of demonization and delegitimization are all expressions of contemporary antisemitism.
EDIT: Not sure why this is crossed out. some kind of glitch. Anyone know how to undo it?
