Roger Waters looked out the possibility of the musical "The Wall" on the border between Mexico and the United States to follow the conflict generated by President Donald Trump. The construction of the wall is one of the main promises to have the national president, whose purpose is to shut out immigrants.
The statements were offered during the installation of the exhibition "Their Mortal Remains" ( "deadly His remains"), at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London which will open from May 13. The exhibition seeks to honor the 50 years of the band through the first major exhibition about Pink Floyd and consists of 350 objects, from posters, instruments and even a recreation of the first van in which the group toured. The exhibition is a project carried out by the London museum and the team that designed the art and the band's concerts. Aubrey "Po" Powell, creative director of the band, said the exhibition not dodge "death and madness."
"Very relevant now with Mr. Trump and his entire speech on building walls and create as much enmity as possible between races and religions". He stated. He also noted that "The Wall" album which was released in 1979 and is the most popular of the band, is about how damaging it can be to build walls to staff levels and broader level. Of the concert performed, it would not be the first band to perform on a wall, as in 1990, they did so at the site where the Berlin Wall was eight months after being demolished.
However, although Waters said he is prepared to carry out the concert, none of this proposal is consolidated, because for the artist, "will first have to wake up against these right - wing policies. The sewers are full of greedy and powerful men as I speak. Music is a legitimate place to express protest, musicians have an absolute right, a duty, to open his mouth to speak , "said Waters.
"We are all human beings, we must all find ways to unite because so far we are destroying." finished
