Roger Waters: This Is Not A Drill – European tour 2023

ticketmastersComment(0)

The first dates have been released for the 2023 Roger Waters This Is Not A Drill tour of Europe, with tickets tending to go on pre-sale this coming Wednesday, September 14th, with the general sale of tickets following on Friday, September 16th. Important: please check the individual show(s) you are interested in for confirmation of the exact ticketing details for that event, as they might differ from the majority. This European tour announcement is on the back of his current tour of the US and Canada, which is 27 shows in, with 15 still to play. The new staging sees the band playing “in the round”, with Roger prowling the stage to present to all sides of the arenas. Above is a new screen, arranged in a kind of cross. We don’t want to say too much for those who are trying to avoid spoilers! You might also notice from this new graphic to support the European tour, that it refers to “his first ever farewell tour” – make of that what you will, not least as a farewell tour isn’t normally referred to as that person’s “first ever”! Maybe it is Roger having a little joke… We suspect the following list will grow quickly, so please keep checking back for more details. Each show will link off to a specific page for that event, including ticket links, directions to the venue, and – once the show has taken place – details of the set list, video from the show, and submitted reviews and pictures from kind Brain Damage readers. Here’s the dates so far, as revealed on Roger’s website, along with ticketing websites in some of the countries. We’re keeping an eye out for further shows as they get added to the schedule. The TICKETS link gives more information on the dates, any presales there might be, and the various VIP packages that are available for most (if not all) of the shows. 21st March 2023 – Palau Sant Jordi, Barcelona, Spain (https://www.brain-damage.co.uk/2023-tour-zone/march-21st-palau-sant-jordi-barcelona-spain.html) – TICKETS (https://www.livenation.es/show/1386795/roger-waters/barcelona/2023-03-21/en)

“The answer is that I feel very happy” – Nick Mason

ticketmasters

One of Brain Damage’s friends of many years is José Abellán, who runs the Animals PF Magazine (http://www.animalspinkfloydmagazine.com). Jose is also contributor to the Spanish music magazine This Is Rock. To coincide with the release of Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets: Live At The Roundhouse (https://www.brain-damage.co.uk/latest/nick-masons-saucerful-of-secrets-live-at-the-roundhouse-2lp-2cd-dvd-blu-ray-ci-2.html), Jose chatted with Nick back in February, pre-lockdown, and he has kindly shared a translation of his full article and interview that appeared in the April issue of This Is Rock: Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets: Live At The Roundhouse is on sale from Friday, September 18, worldwide in several formats: double vinyl, 2 CD and DVD, and Blu-ray. Its release was originally scheduled for Friday, April 17, but due to the pandemic, it was postponed, a delay of five months. In February and April of this year, two interview sessions with Nick Mason were held in London and New York. The appointment in London was on February 11th and 12th (my birthday) and I was able to choose the 12th… you can decide if there was good or bad intention in my choice. As a contributor to This Is Rock magazine, I was able to interview Nick in my role as journalist that morning at One Alfred Place in London. Live at the Roundhouse is different to any other concert of “classic” Pink Floyd. It’s the closest you can get to a time machine, transporting you back to the band’s early days. Nick Mason, the only member of the band to have played on all of Pink Floyd’s studio albums, returns to the group’s early albums, alongside Gary Kemp, Guy Pratt, Lee Harris and Dom Beken. Saucerful of Secrets, Nick Mason’s band, brought drumming back to clubs for the first time since 1967, then to theatres and halls across the UK, North America and Europe, playing only music from his old band, recorded previous to The Dark Side of the Moon. The result is the release of this double album, 2CD / DVD and Blu-ray. Seated for an hour face to face in a spacious office, only Nick Mason and I, we talked about this release, the future tour, his time in Spain, Pink Floyd and the future of this band and Pink Floyd…
