Didn’t Pink Floyd just announce they were breaking up again?
The rest of the band can’t stand him, either.
Pink Floyd is calling it quits and have lasted 48 years.
The Jewish People, on the other hand, are about to celebrate Year 5775 in less than a month.
Roger will die some day and learn the truth.
Another sin of his is that he has RUINED my enjoyment of PF’s very interesting music. Oh well, Wagner was an antisemite too, and his very wonderful music has also been tainted by that knowledge.
Wagner’s music is a LOT better than Pink Floyd’s, by the way. (sigh)
Just proving for the millionth time that having an artistic talent doesn’t mean you know anything about the real world. The adage ‘shut up and play’ is always good advice.
I don’t even know who this guy is. Some rock star, I guess, which automatically makes him an idiot.
I love the idea that lodging rockets at Israelis is no big deal. Anti-semites have been pushing this trope for years now. See what would happen if Ireland started lodging rockets at Britons every day - missing them on a regular basis. Just see how long THAT lasts and how sanguine Brits would be.
What’s that saying?
“Don’t give me any facts,my mind is already made up”.
I own a couple of documentaries on the group and most of their concerts. Waters never got over the death of Syd Barrett as well as the death of his father in WWII. Many of his songs are about Syd or his dealing with his father’s death.
The rest of the band wanted him to “get over it”. You can see it in their comments about him in the documentaries. They are never really disrespectful but it’s made very clear that they had had it with him and had to move on.
I’m a big fan of the music but, frankly, the tribute band “Brit Floyd” does their stuff even better than they did. They have a duplicate “Pulse” concert on youtube that is amazing.
Why does it even matter what this bum thinks anyway? Is he a mover and shaker in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process anyway??? It confounds me why the Boomers genuflect so much regarding the “esteemed thoughts and opinions” of there erstwhile icons and heroes of the past. Water’s opinions carry as much weight as Katy Perry’s, Eva Longoria’s, Cher’s or Myly Cyrus/Justin Beeeeeeber’s do.
I used to listen to Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Rush, etc.,...all that crap is in the past for me now...I only listen to classical now.....and you’re right...Wagner was vastly superior to any kind of rock music....even the high and mighty Boomer “gods” Pink Floyd.
Been broke up a long time and a key member is dead
Gilmour is married to (of course) a secular Jew and many kids with her
He and Waters have never been buds but he was buds with the others
Does Waters talk about dead Christians
Their numbers dwarf exponentially those of dead Israelis at the hands of Muslims and/or Arabs*
Many but not most of Israels terrorist foes in 60s to 90s were christian Arabs and euro trash Commies....for the record
The traditional difference (before DSM-IV) between a psychopath and a sociopath is that a psychopath is organic, which means that their brain is wired to be a psychopath; but a sociopath is *trained* to be a sociopath.
As such, a psychopath cannot help it, even if most of them find alternative means to control their behavior. But a sociopath, raised in their youth to be a sociopath, can be trained out of it.
But only when they are young. Once they are an adult, it is only very rare that a sociopath can learn how to not be a sociopath.
Sociopathy is seen in the children of fanatics, who have trained them to be fanatics and sociopaths.
Roger Waters father was the son of a coal miner and Labour Party activist, and was a schoolteacher, a devout Christian, and a Communist Party member. While he couldn’t have raised him as a sociopath, dying soon after he was born, it is likely that his mother had similar values.
If nothing else, she was who likely instilled in him his passionate hatred of Jews.
Waters remonstrates the Jews who least deserves it at the same time he collaborates on Cultural and economic Marxism with those who do
I actually PLAY in a Rock/Blues/Gospel band in a Biker Ministry.
But I LISTEN to Classical.
Even the simplest 2-part invention by Bach trumps PF.
Pink Floyd is great in their genre (rock and roll) and I still love listening to their music (while ignoring the comments of Roger Waters about anything other than his band or his music).
I LOVE old classic blues....I left that out...and I like stuff like Dick Dale, Duane Eddy, all the old Glen Campbell stuff I grew up with...really old classic stuff from the 50’s.like Dean Martin, etc.,....but I’m fed up with the other stuff...tgat I mentioned already.
What you do is cool and good...I dig gospel.
I understand...it was really good music and innovative .
But, just like the movie stars who can’t keep their mouths shut, the rock stars spoil their art for me with their political hypocrisy. I can’t help it.
I hear you.
Good Music never gets old.
Yessir!
