For these shows, photographs are permitted but we must insist on NO Flash photography. Flash wipes out the images projected on the Wall, which are the most important part of the show. Any person who uses Flash will have their camera confiscated and could be removed from the Arena."
Pink Floyd's two member offered to the Waters to perform "To Known Him Is To Love Him," Gilmour would guest on "Comfortably Numb" at a to-be-determined concert on Waters' latest tour.
Waters said, "You could have knocked me down with a feather. How f*cking cool! I was blown away. How could I refuse such an offer. I couldn't, there was no way. Generosity trumped fear. And so explaining that I would probably be sh*te, but if he didn't mind I didn't, I agreed and the rest is history. We did it, and it was f*cking great. End of story. Or possibly beginning."

Roger Waters Says Pink Floyd Will Never Tour Again
Discussing about his recent production of The Wall,Roger Waters said a full-fledged Pink Floyd reunion tour will not happen. "David and Nick and I might do a one-off somewhere, but there's no way we're going to do a tour," he said. "It's just such a shame that we didn't get around to it before Rick died."
His new version of The Wall has a more huge context today than it did when he and Pink Floyd first staged the show more than 30 years ago. The 67-year-old Floyd co-founder told Rolling Stone magazine it's "basically the same show, but with a broader meaning."
"We had to deal with the fact that it was one thing for a man in his 30s to sing about his young adult life, which was sort of an echo of his upbringing at that point," Waters said. "But it's something else to go on doing that when you're in your 60s."

Roger Waters: Plays The Wall
Roger Water's comeback to vancouver in anticipation on the wall tour, we figured we needed a grand gesture to gig him how much we care.
What do you give a man who has helped bring us some of the most beloved albums of all time? And then it dawned on us.
It really doesn’t get much longer than naming a hockey rink after the man. Waters will be playing The Wall in its entirety on friday 10 December at Rogers Arena.
From “Hey You” to “Outside the Wall”, it should be an acid trip to over all trips. Hopefully, Sting would not required the same condition his next time through town. After all, Sting Arena doesn’t exactly sing.
