Mexico City (December 14, 2010) .- Roger Waters wanted to mount the show again The Wall, based Pink Floyd album released in 1979, because the message of the unnecessary wars are still in force and now is urgent.
The musician, who will present the show at the Palacio de los Deportes on 18, 19 and 21 December said in an interview that world leaders still have the idea that to be powerful must be brought to the people, tell you whom to fear and how they should act.
"We have increased the number of senseless wars, unnecessary, inhumane, ridiculous. One would expect to be fading, but not, including my country (Britain) and the country where I live (U.S.) have been involved, especially Iraq and Afghanistan.
"What is the point with these wars? Those who have pushed to see how imperial the world. Have on their agenda is to accumulate wealth and power. If that is the agenda, of course there will be war, I give a damn that people die or suffer, "he charged.
The premise of the album The Wall (1979) and later rock opera (1980) was to a musician who decides to build a wall to shut out the world for fear that you have.
But for her new show, which is planning 75 presentations in several countries, Waters said he decided to give it a spin that made reference to not only the musician's first assembly, but a mirror of the countries that have tried to control their people.
"The original story of 1979 could be seen as an allegory of the political situation that is very relevant now. We are controlled by power, that tells us we need to beware of evil that are different to us and tells us who we should fear . I thought it was good to work on that meaning for the show, "said Waters, who began work in January for the new assembly.
"The piece is about fear and rebellion. On the rebellion against fear. The Wall is about a young fearful that separates himself from other men by a wall because it is afraid and ashamed. For me this is an allegory of how to operate the nations, "he said in reference to countries like the U.S. are kept inside their borders for fear of being attacked by others.
Therefore, for the British, both George Bush and Tony Blair, former presidents of the United States and Britain, respectively should be in jail, they are primarily responsible for destroying hundreds of lives for no reason with their participation in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Waters said people are already aware that it can be free of political control of nations and that its primary weapon to do so is communication.
"You can resist and people do it. My great hope is people, who now has the ability to communicate across international barriers, it does eventually across religious and ideological barriers. That crossing of communication is in itself an act of resistance because it is essential for policymakers to keep in control, incommunicado "he said.
The musician said that this exchange of communication, which he represents a way to break the barriers, including will use in the show, it has asked people who have had loved ones who died in war that they send photographs to be included in a section of the show, as a tribute. today sell more
