Very pumped! Wish Gilmore was here, but I'll take it. Dream concert. I'll ignore politics.

Just left.
Music was great, non political visuals were great.
Anti-Trump stuff was way over the top. Superimposing his head onto Hitler and putting a Klan hood on him was dumb and it totally took away from 2 of my favorite songs.
Don't talk about Trump being greedy when you're selling T-shirts for $75 a pop.

Awesome show tonight, band sounded great, the lead singer could have even passed as Gilmour at some points. Visuals were incredible, I just wish I was on the side of the arena so I could appreciate all of the screens.
I wasn't bothered by the trump hate. I just took that time to rock the frick out to pigs. Dogs + pigs was pure bliss.

Just got home. Amazing show. His band was top notch. The effects were incredible. I was sitting in the sideline lower bowl so I got the full effect.
As a trump voter, I can laugh off that trump stuff knowing that its just ignorance. a guy in the row below me gave RW the bird everytime he looked our way after all that.

Gotta admit, the screens dropping down and dividing the crowd into two and mimicking the Battersea Power Station while the giant pig flew around during "Pigs" was pretty damned cool. I also enjoyed how he's doing the prism this time around.
The political stuff didn't bother me. It's Roger fricking Waters. If he didn't have a political angle, I'd be concerned for his well-being.

just got home from the show. i thought the second half was superior to the first. the screens during the first half of the second set were insane. the laser pyramid was in incredible sight.
maybe it was just me, but rog didn't seem too engaged for parts of the first set. but "one of these days" was killer

Haven't seen what they are referring to myself (with klan hood and Hitler), but the Godwin's Law angle is just kind of pathetic intellectually and artistically.

TRUMP WINS AGAIN!!
For a British musician to spend over one full hour of video (no exaggeration here folks) footage blasting America and its President and his family while in the U.S---well, it looks like Mr. Trump got the better of him.
I gotta say, I almost feel bad for Waters--his videos were childish--not something a 70+ year old adult would do--it was sad. His video show made him seem obsessed.
No wonder the rest of the band has nothing to do with him!
Also, if you noticed, he introduced all the band members by name and instrument, but when he got to the 2 female singers, he introduced them together---not very SJW of him. The women must not be of the same value to him. He must be a sexist.
And last, there was also constant anti war and footage of bombings---just remember, Mr. Waters, if it were not for USA bombs, your British arse would be singing in German, so you're welcomed.
To those that disagree, remember, I didn't spend $200 to have to be subjected to this crap.
Take a page from the Grateful Dead and Phish's handbook--these are 2 very liberal bands, but when they walk on stage, they realize that it's about music and the escape from the world. Politics is NEVER brought up on stage...they are professionals.
Your opinion may vary---but then again, I really don't care...so there's that!

The second half was nonstop sjw bullshite. I thought it was especially hypocritical to show the Trump stuff during Money considering Waters is one of the richest musicians in the world, probably close to a billionaire himself.
Also, I wish he would have done more. Felt like a glorified Pink Floyd cover band at times.
Highlights for me were Welcome to the Machine and Dark Side of the Moon.

I had a blast. The political shite didn't bother me - I just laughed it off. It was so over the top that I almost thought it was satire until the quotes started rolling and killed the subtlety. (Odd selection of quotes, too. Some of them weren't even that bad. )
As for the music and the visuals, I was loving it. That guy has really aged well.

Not agreeing or disagreeing with you either way, but that's definitely an exaggeration.

And yet, you bought a ticket to, and attended a show by an artist that you should have known was going to express himself about Trump. Seems to me that you lost.

It's incredibly weird to me how many of you are going out of your way to see a known political artist and then complaining that he brings politics to his art.

i enjoyed the frick out of it
But, i didn't' feel subjected to political views(i also think trump is unfit so maybe if i was a big trump supporter i would have felt different). , it was a rock concert - i enjoyed the songs an the lights and images were just lights and images and some banter and i can dismiss it easily without giving further thought.
Like when Stevie Wonder was talking about we got to get all these guns off the streets and peopel got pissed because of gun control shite - i just feel like its excessive.
Roger Waters went over the top with it - but that is him - i thought the crowd booing was pretty weak though.
All in all great show, worth the price of admission, would go to again.
Honestly it was frickign awesome, he brought the ideals of the wall (to put it simply) into the production and made it current. I felt like he got trump to play a character in his show - which is fitting given the subject matter of most of PF songs
