Pink Floyd‘s Roger Waters has announced an extensive 2020 US Tour.
Waters, who recently revealed he is working on a memoir, will play 31 dates from July 8 to October 3.
A video accompanying the tour announcement features Waters rehearsing Pink Floyd‘s ‘Comfortably Numb’ and ‘Sheep’, suggesting the songs will feature on tour.
“As the clock ticks faster and faster and faster down to extinction, it seemed like a good thing to make a fuss about it, so that’s why I’m going on the road,” Waters told Rolling Stone. “To be blunt, we need to change the way we organize ourselves as a human race or die. This tour will be part of a global movement by people who are concerned by others to affect the change that is necessary. That’s why we’re going on the road. That’s why speak to each other in pubs. That’s why this conversation should be on everybody’s lips, constantly, the whole time, because it’s super important. So I hope you’ll all come to the shows. This is not a drill.”
Judging by these comments the former Pink Floyd visionary’s This Is Not A Drill Tour will continue to take an overtly political tone.
Tickets will go on sale on January 31.
