Exactly right, PJSoul & Beavers. Roger Waters has never been shy about his political views, and just about every album (whether solo or Pink Floyd) contains elements of that. So it would be shocking to see a hyper-political artist/band not share those views with the audience. I've been a massive Pink Floyd fan since the 70's and find that I'm nearly Amused to Death by people just now figuring out that Roger has something to say. Did any of the people who were surprised listen to his latest album "Is This The Life We Really Want?" He's pretty fucking blatant and obvious about where he stands, and his loathing for Trump. As Roger suggested, people who don't like it should probably just "Go see Katy Perry."
I find it amusing that you think the question I asked suggests that I just now noticed Pink Floyd's stance on things. Late to the party? My elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor. Ok, But I thought Ed's routine with the W mask and glittery sport coat was hilarious. And the rage at the end of Daughter/Tag if you will on the Showbox DVD I thought was powerful.
Katie Perry endorsed Hillary, so I don't get that response. I'm not a Trump supporter. Just asked a question. But to put up pics that make him look like a drag queen just isn't funny to me. You can have something to say like Ed does, or you can be rediculous.
I like what Roger is doing, but his delivery is a bit skewed. I'm not sure shaming a drag queen sends the right message, actually, I know it doesn't, unless it's not a drag queen, and it's more meant as lipstick on a pig or something similar, but I haven't seen the show.

I attended the vote for change tour for a few shows. They were great and not what I thought it would be. Something tells me though that if Pearl Jam was announcing their next tour as an anti-Trump tour w/ all the bells and whistles flashing it would be a first time that some, actually many 10c members would think twice about putting in for tix. No one wants to spend money and vacation time on a night out to protest President Trump. That's what marching is for.
Nobody suggested that Pearl Jam should or would dedicate an entire tour to Trump. That would be totally bizarre. It's not bizarre for Roger Waters though. Him doing that is about the least surprising thing ever.
Why would it be so bizarre in a world where they did the VFC tour?
A tour trying to get out the vote is a lot different than a tour dedicated to trashing one individual IMO. I fully acknowledge and appreciate that PJ has been very political (I wish they still were - they've largely dropped that in recent years), but making an entire tour about Trump would be something totally unheard of for Pearl Jam, especially now, since they've become so much more timid about such things.
I saw Roger Waters in Philly a few weeks ago. It's really only during the song Pigs that the imagery blatantly mocks Trump. I would hardly say his entire tour is about mocking trump. Oh and it was probably the best Non-PJ show i've ever seen. It was awesome.

Sweet! I don't have tix, but perhaps I'll end up at his show in October anyway. I saw Pink Floyd about 25 years ago, and to this day it is still the most spectacular show I've ever seen.

if you get a chance I would say take the opportunity to see it. Roger is 73 now so not sure how much more touring he has in him although he looks great for his age. I had very high expectations going into the show and it was good or better than i expected.

I would love to, but the ticket prices are completely out of control, unfortunately. The only way I'm seeing it is if a rich person (aka my brother in law, lol) intends to take me for free.

North Korea and Little Rocket Man are threats. Since Pence got stiffed and the South Koreans determined that they cannot rely on Team Trump Treason, Team Trump Treason has moved on. Or, Team Trump Treason is one dimensional and incapable of managing more than half a crisis at a time. Maybe Canada can step in? Brilliant.
Bonus points for 3D and The Professor, who’s the US ambassador to South Korea as of 02/22/2018. Brillianter still.

Haha, I don't think Trudeau is ready. He's battling his own perception issues with his India trip.
Maybe France can help?

Will catch up with Team Trump Treason. Team Mueller ain’t fucking around and no amount of smarmy “can’t we all get along” is going to derail Team Mueller’s pursuit of the truth. Connecting dots is what Team Mueller has for breakfast seven days a week.

In early August, the president crossed a new benchmark — over 1,000 false or misleading claims. According to The Fact Checker's calculation, he now averages 4.9 claims per day
