1. used to be a fan
canada ,   canada   (08.01.11)
but since his rubbish I have thrown every pink floyd cd into the rubbish. I have bought numerous copies of dark side of the moon over the years. No more.
2. with 1 crying eye
gw ,   israel   (08.01.11)
I'm going to burn my Pink Floyd albums
3. #1 so did I, but no more. Waters will not get a dime from me
Eyal ,   USA/ISRAEL   (08.01.11)
4. the dark side of the moon is plagiarism

aperently composing music describing moon rise was done by Beethoven more than 100 years ago. my guess the band members were drunk or high when they over heard it and decide to make "their own" version.
5. Pink Fraud can fade away
BH ,   Iowa   (08.02.11)
Won't be long until Waters is playing county fairs.
6. I was at his show in Paris
Dave ,   Paris france   (08.02.11)
This show is not antisemitic. Indeed David stars fall from a bomber but so fall crosses and moon crescents. It is more anti religion than anything else. Last picture in the show is a brocken wall in the middle with on the left an Arab girl and on the right a Jewish boy. It is naive for sure, we may disagree with his views but I think there's nothing to be paranoid about. There's a lot of stuff on YouTube for those interested. I'm a Zionist and I liked the show even if it sounded very naive.
7. Rock is powerful and even morons (Roger) can do damage!
tom ,   tel aviv   (08.02.11)
8. Not like I listened to them much, even in their salad days
Ron ,   oc,us   (08.02.11)
But, now when I hear the first few notes of a PF song on the radio. I just push the button to something else. Boycott PF.
9. Roger Waters
Salman ,   India   (08.03.11)
What a waste of talent. Pf R.I.P (REST IN PEACE).
10. Roger, you've made me a torn man
Deebo_ ,   Holon   (08.03.11)
I've been a life long fan, but whenever I hear your music I can't help but think about your misdirected views about us. Instead, I listen to a Floyd song and think, "It's OK, this one was written by David Gilmour".
11. The Wall
Frank ,   MIami   (08.04.11)
You morons!!! You don't get the message of the show....If you have a half of a brain you'll understand that The Wall is against all types of discrimination
12. The video was fixed
Michael ,   Ramat Gan   (08.05.11)
The video he saw was not the original video which caused the criticism. Roger changed it in October. For details, google the phrase "Roger Waters Changes Controversial ‘Wall’ Video".
13. Whaaattt????!!
Thomas Mercury ,   Calgary, Canada   (08.10.11)
I saw this show and it is and will never be anti-semitic in any way. These symbols fall in random order and were not meant to be juxtaposed. He already made an announcement about this in Toronto after someone said something. It is a great concert and people should actually go out and watch some bloody videos before shouting anti-semitism.
14. I LOVE YOU ROGER WATERS
Megan ,   Fort Myers   (08.11.11)
ya bunch of haters.
15. Please get a hobby...
Mikhail ,   Toronto, Canada   (08.13.11)
Oh my god this is what the diplomats of Israel do? People get a clue being against Israeli policies does not make you an anti semite. It makes you not like the policies of the state, could it possibly be explained in any simpler way?
