Roger Waters has shared a new live video of him performing the Pink Floyd classic Wish You Were Here as he announces the release of his new This Is Not A Drill – Live from Prague The Movie.
Presented in 8k, This Is Not A Drill – Live from Prague The Movie will be released in cinemas worldwide through Trafalgar Releasing and Sony Music Vision beginning on 23 July. Tickets will go on sale from June 12. The ticket link is listed below.
The film captures Waters’ This Is Not A Drill tour, billed as his “first ever Farewell Tour”, at the O2 Arena in the Czech Republic on May 25 in 2023. The tour was dubbed as attack on “corporate dystopia in which we all struggle to survive and is dedicated to our brothers and sisters all over the world who are engaged in the existential battle for the soul of humanity”.
“What do you want? A quote? Alright Errr… THIS IS NOT A DRILL,” Waters quips drily.
The show features 20 classic Pink Floyd and Waters solo songs, including: Us & Them, Comfortably Numb, Wish You Were Here, Is This The Life We Really Want? and a brand new song, The Bar.
The accompanying music will be released on Legacy Recordings, the catalogue division of Sony Music Entertainment, on August 1, and will see the performance presented as a 4 LP set, Blu-ray, a 2 CD set, on DVD and as Digital Audio.
