Roger Waters - Pictuire by: Kate Izor
Last week, Roger Waters announced he is playing three dates in the UK next year as part of his farewell tour. Beginning in Lisbon on March 17, 2023, the show will feature 20 Pink Floyd and Roger Waters classic songs, including: “Us & Them”, “Comfortably Numb”, “Wish You Were Here”, and “Is This The Life We Really Want?”. In addition, Waters debuts a new song, “The Bar”.
Scheduled to take in Birmingham’s Utilita Arena on the 31st May 2023, followed by Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on the 2nd June before playing London’s O2 on the 6th June, the 79-year-old indicated that it would be his swansong trek.
“This Is Not A Drill is a groundbreaking new rock and roll, cinematic extravaganza, performed in the round,” Waters wrote.
“It is a stunning indictment of the corporate dystopia in which we all struggle to survive, and a call to action to love, protect, and share our precious and precarious planet home.
“The show includes a dozen great songs from Pink Floyd’s Golden Era alongside several new ones — words and music, same writer, same heart, same soul, same man. Could be his last hurrah. Wow! My first farewell tour! Don’t miss it. Love, R.”
Tickets are on sale now.
