It’s the news fans have been waiting for. After a triumphant trek across North America in 2010 and Europe in 2011, and following record breaking sales for the early 2012 South American dates, comes word that The Wall Live tour will return to North America for a second batch of dates beginning in May. This is your chance to experience the sights and sounds of Pink Floyd’s legendary front man, Roger Waters.
The Wall Live tour is said to be the greatest stage spectacular in rock’n’roll history. This new production of The Wall is an attempt to draw some comparisons, to illuminate our current predicament, and is dedicated to all the innocent lost in the intervening years.
Fallen Loved Ones’ is a request, from Roger, reaching out to ask you to provide a photograph and personal details of a ‘Loved One’ lost in war. Your ‘Loved One’s’ picture and details would be included, along with those of Roger’s father Eric, projected as a slowly changing stream on the wall throughout the show, as an act of remembrance. The ‘Fallen Loved One’ does not have to have been a soldier. Civilian deaths are equally, if not more, harrowing.
Watch a sneak peek behind the wall here.

Mr. Events.
Great idea Jes, wish I could join the group! I’d say go online and search for a nice image with the hammers and the right size and print it, then attach it to your outfit! Best.
My group is all traveling in black as Pink’s skinhead stormtroopers. Is there any way we might aquire some hammer armbands? This would complete the outfit, but without it we are just skinhead goths!
I already got my ticket!
Wow this is going to be an awesome show!!
