At the Roger Waters concert in the Assago Forum and shortly before the beginning of the evening, some writing appears on the large screens, which are positioned on cross-shaped blocks in the audience: “If you are here for Pink Floyd’s songs you are Please go to the bar , fuck yourself. Roger Waters.
It’s likely that the group’s famous meeting will be now or never.
The most impressive thing about Roger Waters’ show, to which Germany is closing its doors to bring his concert – initially two dates of the “this is no a drill” tour in Frankfurt and Munich – and touring around the world, is the scenography. 8 giant screens mounted on a cruciform structure rising above the stage at the start of the show show the band never seen before. U2 had done it similarly, but the (huge) screen was only horizontal and spanned the entire runway. It was the INNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE Tour 2015 and we still remember it today. Well, Roger Waters has transcended that aesthetic with an explosion of imagery that will leave you stunned. Huge photos turned red, showing Ronald Reagan’s face and the inscription that reads, “This man killed more than 30,000 people.” Or the names of dozens of martyrs of oppression who scourge anyone in this world who, as a minority, tries to get their cause across. There’s room for greetings to the public and the former Pink Floyd (who hates naming names) says he’s looking forward to greeting the Italian public as he says ‘you’ve always loved me’. Ah, the song with which he opened the concert, which for images and lyrics is – absolutely – a political manifesto between denunciation and populism, the proclamations against injustices per kilo and all too “simple” denunciations, was “Another brick in the wall”. .And that alone would be enough to make us say that this is a sight not to be missed.And there’s little to do if you want to see some ideas, in modern rock are those who invent it , always the “usual” survivors
