It kind of adds an irony to Mama do you think they’ll drop the bomb from Pink Floyd’s The Wall which also featured the song Vera as an ironic indictment because Pink’s father never did come home.

It does.

I used to love Pink Floyd, but I went to a Roger Waters concert back around 2004, and it made me so angry I really haven’t been able to enjoy Pink Floyd music since then.

I went with about ten friends, and I knew who Roger Waters was, but had no inkling of what kind of person he was. I just liked Pink Floyd, I had never been one to get fixated on the lives and interests of celebrities.

So, it was a real surprise to me to be subjected to several hours of that absolute BS. His whole “performance” was an anti-American multi-media show.

I was so steaming mad, but...I didn’t want to ruin it for everyone else, so I just sat there or walked around the venue, but it wasn’t like you could get away from the sights or sounds anywhere.

I haven’t listened to “The Wall” in probably 20 years but...I have been persuaded that Pink Floyd wasn’t entirely Roger Waters.
