Euronews: Roger Waters, the co-founder of musical rock n’ roll group Pink Floyd, said the group’s cult album The Wall is more relevant now given Donald Trump’s US presidency than ever before.
Waters, 73, made the comment during a rare public appearance in London to promote “Pink Floyd, Their Mortal Remains”, an exhibition which will feature memorabilia and archived footage of the band as it celebrates its 50-year career.

Although this is probably one of the stranger venues I've heard of it, I think it's a great idea. This seems like the perfect gig for Pink Floyd because of their style and past career. Furthermore, this performance would be huge and probably have a huge turn out because a.) It's Pink Floyd and they never show up anymore and b.) there is a huge amount of tension over the topic of the wall in recent months. It's impressive just how timeless their albums can be as seen with The Wall, released almost 4 decades ago. The effect would be greater than one can imagine since a lot of us are all the way up north or on the East coast protesting the problem that is the wall when most of us have never seen it in person. I'm sure there are even people living a few hours outside of it who've never seen it either. In a broader sense, I'm glad that classic musicians and groups like Pink Floyd are starting to rise up again, stronger than before, and protest these issues
