Roger Waters, the co-founder of PINK FLOYD, reportedly caused quite a stir at a recent concert. Waters spent the initial part of his show reading from his yet-to-be-published memoir, instead of performing music, which caused some disappointment among his fans.
Numerous fans, anticipating the former PINK FLOYD bassist to perform his recent rendition of The Dark Side of the Moon, were instead met with a surprise as Waters chose to read from his forthcoming memoir, “Dark Side Of The Moon: Memoirs Of A Lanky Prick”. Instead of the anticipated music, he proceeded to read excerpts from his laptop.
In response to the audience’s reaction, the 80-year-old singer bluntly told them to ‘f*** off’.
Reddit users did not hold back in expressing their opinions about the performance. One wrote: “I don’t think it was announced beforehand that 50 percent of the show would be Roger reading from a laptop. I think it was perfectly reasonable to assume that it would be a full concert… But I think the audience had every right to be unhappy with the first half of the show. I know I would be.”
Another fan wrote on X: “Went to watch PINK FLOYD’s Dark Side of the Moon remake gig last night at London Palladium with Roger Waters and I simply have no words to describe it and not in a positive way. What an egocentric narcissist he is and to think I paid good money to watch him. Lesson learnt.”
