Roger Waters wins at Concert Industry Awards

The 23rd annual Pollstar Concert Industry Awards took place Friday night at Club Nokia in Los Angeles, California. Celebrating all the very best of 2011 from the large numbers of tours and concert productions, the event was crammed with a large number of categories. Unsurprisingly a number of Roger Waters/Pink Floyd related collaborators picked up awards. Whilst he didn't win "Major Tour of the Year" (Lady Gaga was awarded this one), Roger did - quite rightly - win the "Most Creative Stage Production" award, for his incredible tour of The Wall, which from beginning to end stands at 191 shows at time of writing this. Other winners included Clair ("Sound Company of the Year") who are responsible for sound production on Roger's tour.

Roger Waters confirms Boston Fenway Park Wall concert

Finally confirmed this afternoon with ticketing information is the July 1st Roger Waters Wall concert at Boston's historic Fenway Park. The venue was one of the places in the US where Roger did initial lighting/projection tests to see whether his idea of playing in baseball stadiums would work.
The RogerWaters.com presales take place from February 13th; a small number of advance tickets will be available to those who have registered their interest in this particular city. General sale tickets will go on sale on February 20th through this link to Ticketmaster.com. The public sale will also see a limited number of VIP packages made available for each show on the tour.

Roger Waters on the Howard Stern US radio show

A entrevista mostrou um assunto fascinante. Você pode ler um resumo do bate-papo aqui, Roger falou sobre tudo, desde seus dias de infância, a aprendizagem da guitarra, seu casamento, no sábado (14 de janeiro) para Laurie (parabéns a ambos!), Através de discussão entensive em sua música - tanto como parte do Floyd, e sua carreira solo. "Nós éramos um time rachaduras quando éramos mais jovens ... de 68 para 'Dark Side of the Moon' éramos um grupo fortemente unido. [Dark Side of the Moon] foi a primeira vez que começamos a fazer qualquer dinheiro." Ele ainda menciona a saga de longa duração do The Wall On Broadway, observando que agora é sobre os projectos de número cinco, mas claramente ainda a esperança de que isso iria acontecer.
