Roger Waters’ will be performing his rock opera The Wall in a series of concerts on The Wall Tour 2010. The US dates have been announced on his new website in what is thought to be the first leg of the tour. Hopefully Europe will happen in 2011.
Commencing on 15th September 2010 at Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, the tour will see The Wall performed live 35 times for what is one of the most eagerly anticipated tours of the Pink Floyd members past and present.
It has also been reported that the tour will “move on to Europe for another 57 dates beginning in March. Waters says he’d like to take the show to other territories, including South America.” [source]
The band currently consists of Roger Waters on Bass/Vox, Snowy White and Dave Kilminster on guitars and California group Venice doing male backing vocals. A treat!

Inspiration Behind The Wall
The Wall album was inspired by Roger Waters feelings towards the large scale concerts they had found themselves doing on The Animals Tour of 1977, particularly on July 6th when Roger found himself spitting at a fan who was screaming and shouting whilst Pink Floyd were trying to perform their intimate music to the large crowd. Having severe stomach cramps on 29th June at The Spectrum in Philadelphia and being injected with a muscle relaxant to “ease his pain and get him back on his feet again” instead of diagnosing him for the condition he had also had an influence as heard in a verse in Comfortably Numb! These events amongst many others gave him feelings he was becoming more and more isolated from his audience and people in general hence the feeling of a wall developing around him. The seeds for The Wall were sown!
Roger started writing The Wall in September 1977 and by January 1978 had assembled the songs into a conceptual form resulting in a tentatively titled “Bricks In The Wall” 90 minute demo tape. He presented this to the band along with another project The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking at a meeting in Britannia Row in July 1978. The band decided on The Wall as their next project and Roger would go on to release The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking as his first solo album in 1984.
The Original Wall Tour 1980-81
The original Wall Tour of 1980-81 was only played in two cities in the USA (LA and NY), one in London and one in Germany and was performed only 31 times. This was due to the sheer scale of the live production and complexity in installing the show into a venue!
The production included elaborate staging that stretched the full length of the stage as show in the photo right. There were also spectacular effects, films projected onto the massive Wall across the stage between the band and the audience, giant puppets and was an experience to say the least!
Roger Waters : The Wall Tour 2010
Due to the vastness of the groundbreaking tour, a great financial loss was made by the band (except for the late keyboard player and founding member of Pink Floyd Richard Wright who was a paid session musician on the tour due to being fired by Roger Waters during the recording of the album). As such, it is not likely that the production in 2010 will be anything like on the scale The Wall was first presented.
However, Roger’s last tour – which featured a huge projection screen across the back of the stage – looked amazing and added greatly to the multimedia experience of the shows. Hence I believe it would be perfectly brilliant not to build another great physical wall across the front of the stage but, instead, utilise the amazing new digital technologies at the disposal of production designers today.
