Alright, colonel.

Will the album be about the death of his dad. It's a change, for sure. :roll: :roll: :roll:

Darn it, you have now reminded him, and he hasn't written about that in ages!

Waters said he would explore the idea of releasing a single urging musicians not to perform in Israel. He intends to discuss this project with Steven Van Zandt, the guitarist in Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band, who assembled many well-known musicians to record Sun City, a protest song against apartheid in South Africa during the 1980s.

Not to perform in Israel? Look, mr Waters, politicians is one thing, ordinary people are another. They're not necessarily to blame for authorities' mistakes.

Nah, I think he'll want to cover some new ground, maybe write about madness or a war or something.

Yes! I love Roger's early material. Think "Set the controls..." or "Julia dream". But I'm afraid his new album will be more down-to-earth, political and such.

I love it too :)
But since he said it's gonna be different, maybe he really did move on this time. One of his latest songs (I don't remember the title) did sound like Granchester Meadows.

I guess late 2014 would be the very earliest we could hope for a new album?

Waters doesn´t need to perform in a genocidal state, you know...

I guess so - considering that now he's busy with The Wall Live tour.

Right, it's the people to blame for it, yeah.

What do you think was the point of my post??

That's right. Don't blame the people. I have often seen the people on the evening news, out demonstrating against their governments illegal building of settlements!
