London Birmingham and Glasgow, will be going for Glasgow Friday June 2nd, saw him live 2 nights on the trot there last tour, hopefully he will tack on another night like last time, booked hotel already, new show looks spectacular and it is his farewell tour, has to be seen and heard IMHO.

Actually, going to try for Birmingham tickets too, have mates there that could put me up for the night, early access tickets go on sale 29th this month and 28th for Glasgow OVO Hydro club members of whom my mate is one, these shows will sell out fast me reckons, but in with a fighting chance of decent seats I hope :) Apparently ticket prices range from £75 to £125 ... massive Pink Floyd fan here, really am and a vet of a few of their shows inc Nick Masons SFOS shows ... am so excited :)
 
Will check this out, Roger Waters doing The Wall at Wembly was as close to a religious experience an atheist like me could get :p

(And David Gilmour at Royal Albert Hall still gives me goosebumps thinking about it!)
 
I've seen Roger waters 3 times, I was very lucky and one of the ones at the O2 in London Gilmour did an appearance the same night.

I might try and get some tickets, the guy is nearly 80 years old though.
 
Maybe he needs to tone down the controversial psuedo support for Russian aggression first before heading out on a tour. Save it for old age and retirement.
 
Oh I know, he's very political, and has every right to be. But implying Ukraine are to blame for an invasion isn't being political, it's sick.
 
I was/am a HUGE Pink Floyd fan, but I'd rather set fire to my testicles and write a miserable album about it than spend a penny supporting Waters now. What an appendage he's become over Ukraine. Pleased to see him having trouble in Poland. May it spread.
 
:D And a multimillionaire guru dropping down to a stadium near you and scooping up all the money. He must be Jesus.

I am a fan of pink Floyd but without the shtick.
 
Well Polish concerts have been cancelled - wouldnt surprise me if others go the same way.

Live Nation will be concerned about their image let alone his.
 
I agree, Roger is highly politically driven, seen him live with Floyd and also solo in 2018 two nights on the trot at Glasgow Hydro.

Its a pity the Polish shows were cancelled, but cant help but think ... ********* ism .... Who actually cancelled them, not the fans I bet but some politically driven Polish government officials, I bet that if 99.9 percentage of Polish Waters fans were asked, they would be as cool as me about Rogers freedom of speech, it must be horrible to live under such oppression.

Oh and Live Nation wont be concerned, trust me, they want sales as much as we can buy them, don't kid yourself :)

Roger is Roger, he's a grumpy old barstward, but he is a musical creative genius too and that's why he is so successful.

I am not going to cut off my nose to spite my face over Rogers political gripes, as said, have seen him live before and its always been awesome, but political or not, his music is magnificent.

Here is a glimpse of his new tour, I cant wait to see and hear it for myself.

The basic tickets are £75.85 - £131.15 each, according to live nation.

The lower end will get you a nosebleed, whilst the higher end may get you a faraway seat in the lower bowl.

Many tickets are allocated to experience tickets. I paid £170ish each for the front row of the upper bowl in the o2 (best nosebleed seats).
 
Ok thanks, I'm trying to decide if it's worth it, I've seen Roger Waters 3 times before, all great don't get me wrong, but to get to London and back realistically have to take a day and a half annual leave as it's midweek, then £100 for the ticket.....

If it were a Saturday or Friday I'd be all over it.

If I’m honest I find all the ‘Pink Floyd’ concerts a bit samey. How many times do we need to hear the same damn songs :p

The show looks broadly similar to his last show except it’s now ‘in the round’ with the stage being in the very middle of the arena surrounded by seats. There is a hanging display system which might make the view of the stage very limited from the worst seats at the back of the nosebleeds - not sure.

There is a date in Glasgow on the Friday is that makes it better somehow…

No not really.

I'm going to see a Pink Floyd tribute band in Wells (North Norfolk) in a few weeks so might just have to be satisfied with that. Floyd in the Flesh, seen them couple of times before.

Seen Aussie Pink Floyd twice now they are really good.

Got the Darkness in Feb, looking forward to that, seen them a few times.

I dunno... Reckon I'll give it a miss....... bloody midweek concert.
