Waters was the genius of Pink Floyd.

People lets get this sraight. Roger Waters is a god among mere mortals when it comes to concepts. Only Pete Townshend is on par. So if he sounds pompus he has every right. Talk to me when you have written and sold what he has.

[MsErasedCitizen2]

You guys go to The Wall Tour. Right now, in 2011. See one of the concerts.

Then come back and tell me Roger Waters was, or better, is NOT a genius.

It won't work.

Anybody notice the roadies unloading the model plane? It looks like a Stuka Ju 87 dive bomber. I always thought it was a plane crashing at the end of 'In The Flesh part 1' i.e. Rogers' fathers'. Now after seeing this I understand it's the sound of two Hammers in a Stuka diving with its' siren wailng. I know that Roger wanted to have a bomber plane at these shows to fly over and drop bombs on members of the audience. The lucky few would be considered "heroes." Outrageous! HAHAHAHAHA!

@powerotoc Roger did not kill him. Nor did he produce Syd's Albums. Dave produced and personally took royalty cheques to Syd.

@Zodist

if roger killed syd, why he would have produced his two solo album after the floyd separate of him. i believe that syd understood. But as said rockaires. Syd never has been so present from dark side....

[rockaires]

@Zodist Wrong man. Barrett has destroyed himself. Waters took the lead of the group and he was Barrett friend. See Sark side of the moon and Wish you were here for instance. Peace

[Zodist]

@rockaires No he wasn't.Syd Barrett was and Roger killed him.Thats the fact.

[marcusbondi]

True! In fact, the tour lost money. As Roger sacked Rick before the album and rehired him as a session player, Rick was the only Floyd member to actually get paid for the whole Wall tour! Cheers!

If your a huge fan of Concepts, listen to Coheed and Cambria. all of their albums are one huge, contninous, sci-fi story. claudio sanchez, the lead singer, is the creator of the concept. he even has comic books that go with the music that he wrote. their next album will include a huge novel that goes with that album. i think he ranks up there, but their not as famous as pink floyd, obviously. they're overlooked but many, which is sad, but they have a huge following, and for good reason.

Waters himself confesses that by 1980 the band's live act had spiraled into an absurdly over-the-top, extravagant event.

[NPhelge]

yeah, and look what happened to the band when his ego and tyrannical ways took over.
