Written by Jon Stickler
Roger Waters will embark on a North American arena tour this summer.
The Pink Floyd bassist will perform in the round as part of his new show, This Is Not A Drill. The trek begins on July 8 in Pittsburgh and continues through to October 3, when it will wrap up in Dallas. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on January 31.
Head below to watch Waters discuss the new trek and rehearse Comfortably Numb, Sheep, solo song The Powers That Be and others with his backing band.
"As the clock ticks faster and faster and faster down to extinction, it seemed like a good thing to make a fuss about it, so that’s why I’m going on the road.
"To be blunt, we need to change the way we organize ourselves as a human race or die. This tour will be part of a global movement by people who are concerned by others to affect the change that is necessary. That’s why we’re going on the road. That’s why speak to each other in pubs. That's why this conversation should be on everybody’s lips, constantly, the whole time, because it’s super important. So I hope you’ll all come to the shows. This is not a drill."
Waters' last release was 'Igor Stravinsky's The Soldier's Tale' in 2018, which followed up 'Is This the Life We Really Want?' from the previous year.
