Multimillionaire who hasn't produced anything of value in

It's funny when you realize all of your favorite people doesn't like trump or support him.

>>735273750
He's the definition of a hypocrite. He can have his soap box but I'm going to call him out on his bullshit. You may want to rethink who you give legend status to. This guy wrote pop songs before you were born and has done nothing but collect royalty checks since the 80s

Waters is God. Waters is God. What happened to the post war dream

This nigga has always produced great shit.

Even though his new album is great amused to death will always be my favourite

His politics are pure shit, but Pink Floyd was God-Tier. Incredible artist, but in spite of him being the motor that drove Pink
Floyd, he couldn't have been as great as he is without the accompaniment of David Gilmour, Richard Wright and to some degree Nick Mason. Syd Barrett Pink Floyd was an entirely different band/sound in my opinion.

In related news David Gilmour is the most underrated guitarist EVER. A true great.

>>735274213
Good point, Syd Barrett is the only member of Pink Floyd to have ever written a hit single.

>>735274445

Absolutely adore the man, but

>crooked tooth brit fags getting triggered

Waters isnt even a good bass player, just got lucky he signed up with the right band

>>735273750
he's a certifiable asshole that has made legendary music...

his bandmates kicked him out of his own band - a band where he wrote 90% of the music and lyrics - because he was such an insufferable jerk...

and lately he has public called out performers in the most self-righteous and patronizing way to not perform in israel.

>>735274683
idk.. the bass in the bridge of "hey you" is kinda mesmerizing

>>735273750
Overrated. Over-full of himself. good songwriter and bassist. but total asshole. Gilmour/Wright (and even Barrett) all the way.

>>735273750
Agreed

>>735275202
Every floyd album since he left lacked direction and cohesion. Sure they sounded like floyd because gilmour and wright... but they werent floyd records. Dark side of the moon was a 60 minute epic that flowed like a wet dream. It was an early iteration of rock opera. Theatre of the mind.

Momentary lapse was just a collection of good tunes... because... no roger. He was the glue.

>>735273750
>earnt his soapbox.
has not been relevant since the '70's
he is a musician, and not even a masterful one. not a life saver, not a war hero, not a scientist who found a cure for a disease.

A friend of mine was recently raving to me about how cool his show was and we had a big debate about how (I said) irrelevant some ancient British rocker was doing commentary on a US president. Waters might believe what he's saying, but he's probably also pandering to liberals for sales.

>>735274213

no, thats the wall

Wish you were here is a hit single.

Which is sad because its not even in the best couple of tracks from that album

Another dude who simultaneously hates his dad and yet makes millions off his angst about his dad being dead.

You couldn't even name or recognize any of the musicians from the band regardless, so why do you care?

>>735274031
you can't reason with a leftist.

they get all their opinions from TV and celebrities.

>>735276417
I know what concerts cost retard. My point is he's a hypocrite. You're charging 5000% markup for a motherfucking t-shirt but trump is a pig. Sure...

>>735275503
>Dark side of the moon was a 60 minute epic
The album's only 43 minutes long, unless you count the time it talked to flip the record. Bands rarely produced a full hours worth of music for a single album back then.

>>735276574
Exactly. Like I give a shit what Leo dicaprio says about global warming

>>735273217
Thank goodness he didn't kept releasing material, everything following up The wall is a complete waste of hearing capacity. But I'd like you to mention ONE artist that has been creating great music for more than 50 years and I'll gladly point out how wrong you are.

I saw roger do the wall a couple of years back... and i have to say it was a watershed moment for me.

I have listened to the wall a million times and to see it presented that way... It all suddenly made sense. The minarets, the wall, the theatre.... it is a magical piece of art.

I wasnt even stoned.

The guy is a genius.

>>735276663
i did no such thing, I'm not American.
even if trump was a celebrity, his fame came from being a businessman and America decided he was the man for the job. he's done a pretty great job so far, so in this case it was completely justified.

>>735276732
>TWICE

>>735276113
> A band manages to produce pieces that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but ripe with social commentary, humor, and thematic value

Better deem them pretentious because their work is intellectually and artistically charged, right? Not liking them is one thing, but you're going to have to go much further on the post-modernist scale to hit something that's legit pretentious.

>>735276586
He is a total hypocrite, just like all the other leftist celebrities. You can't be anti-establisment and for 'the people' and be a multi-millionaire. If you're a millionaire, you are one of them, and they are all on the same side, left, right, 'liberal', conservative, all greedy rich pigs, it's just the ones on the left try and delude themselves about it because they are in denial. all they care about is their bank accounts.

>>735273217
Oh, what the fuck. You don't speak ill of Roger Waters.

That guy is a rock god. A composer that made rock music.

But I will be willing to accept that his anti-Trump campaigning wears a bit thin.

But still, he wrote many many of the most legendary albums in rock music and he WAS PINK FLOYD. The David Gilmore led Pink Floyd cannot hold a candle to Roger Water's songwriting ability.

I'd bitch slap anyone that spoke ill of Roger Water's in person....

In my mind, he's first in the Pantheon of rock gods..... And there will never be a more mind blowing concert than The Wall.

>>735276586
Again... does this surprise you? Have you ever been to a concert? Dip you even understand how merch works?

You live in a capitalist nation. This is nothing to bat an eye at. Did you know pharmaceutical companies have been on a trend, hiking up their prices for medicine despite production costs not changing? Sometimes well over 1000% mark up for no reason (other than to line their pockets with your cash). And not even for rare medicine. Antibiotics,
steroids, and many others.

And THIS is what you're upset about. Is it really about the T-shirts, or the fact he has a different political opinion than you, and has a platform to show it?

>>735274153
Amen Brother.

Amused to Death I sort of see as The Wall part 2. Similar subject matter and delivery.

Have you ever heard his opera about the French Revolution? Ca Ira. It might be the most underappreciated album on earth.

>>735276732
Another republican mistake that destroyed the middle class and poor in america.

>>735273217
Of all three PF read, Waters era was BY FAR, the worst. Fucking bass fags.

>he's a genius! genius! a god!.....

FFS. douchelords, get off this guy's dick already.
talented, yes. brilliant songwriter, yes. genius, no. god? NO. ridiculous how low the standards for 'genius' are. definitely indicative of the decline.

>>735276941
>you don't speak ill of [celebrity]
you sound like an idiot.

celebrity or not, it doesn't suddenly make him exempt from criticism, especially when that criticism is deserved. faggots like you would be the reason why there are so many emperors running about without clothes.

you suck at life and being human. you're a simple minded dreg.

>>735273217
He speaks out about other world leaders as well. he's not just on a anti-Trump wagon he's always been an activist for world peace and ending aggression's started by fucking retards who put millions of innocent people at risk.

>>735276761
>his fame came from being a businessman

No it was being a reality show star. He's about as much a businessman as kim Kardashian. The only thing trump was well known for before the apprentice was having his name plastered on giant buildings.

>>735277126
by being a divisionist shill screaming down from the top of his ivory tower.

>>735273217
Pink Floyd is my favorite band and I'm inclined to agree with you. It disappoints me how he presents his body of work in such a heavy handed political way because I interpret the music is a far more personal way. But I'm seeing him for the sixth time this fall so I can't really complain.

If he could sing and guitar solo like Gilmour, then i might give a shit.

Listen to any live Floyd song on youtube by waters. Then look up same song by Gilmour. Gilmour version SMASHES it every time.

I agree the shit Waters is selling now is just cover band amusement park shit.

>>735277169
>no it was from being on reality TV
this is how i know you're underaged.

>>735277169
>No it was being a reality show star
NO, it was from being a businessman. The world didn't start when you were born, stuff happened before you. Fuckin kids...

>>735276978
You're not very smart are you? I love that they charge so much for t-shirts at concerts. I love that tickets cost as much as they do. It's a glorious sign of how awesome capitalism works and how great this fucking country is. So when I get this fucking 75 year old wanker telling me there's a problem with the president of my country, it pisses me off. Hey, go ahead and make your money. But if you're going to be critical of my country and my president, don't do it here. Do it in your own backyard. Guy is collecting stacks of American dollars bitching about America. Amazing.

>>735276937
>You can't be anti-establisment and for 'the people' and be a multi-millionaire.
Isn't this the pretense Trump was running for president under? Isn't this the lie all republicans say when they run for president?
>I'm looking out for the middle man. The heart of America.
>no, no help for the poor. I like keeping my bank account in the 9-figure range.
>oh my third home? What about it?

>>735277361
no, you idiot. it's not.

It's the lie ALL POLITICIANS say when they run for any office. Again, they are all on the SAME SIDE...

He was not a "celebrity" until that point. Up til then all he had done was use daddy's money to put the family name in gold on their buildings.

You must be confused as to what the word celebrity means. And the fact that you're here arguing with me proves you're not much older if at all.

>>735274445
Very, very true. All of it.

>>735277550
just because you didn't know about him until the apprentice doesn't make your vision of him any more true, little one.

he has been famous for DECADES. "daddy's money" is further proof you've got no clue whatsoever about what you're talking about. are you repeating what your single mother tells you about him or how did you manage to be so misinformed? lol

>>735277303
Lol so you are upset he disagrees with your godking lord emporer Trump?

Also there's a difference between disagreeing with a system and outright refusing it.

You can hate capitalism or whatever economic structure it may be, and want it gone, but there's not much means for you to survive or even get your message out there without utilizing it. People that disagree with capitalism don't disagree it's a good idea, or want complete socialism. They see that capitalism corrupts and gives big faceless corporations (who have just as many rights as a human being, with all the benefits and none of the negatives) carte blanch to do whatever the fuck they want.

by amassing $290,000,000... yeah, I'm sure he totally wants capitalism gone. means to survive? utilizing it? He utilized the fuck out of it, and he definitely has carte blanche, you know, to do whatever the fuck he wants...
