As predicted several months ago, Roger Waters will be celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Wall with an extensive European tour that includes a May 23, 2011 stop-off at the Dublin O2. Tickets priced between €59.80 and €86.25 go on sale on Thursday June 3.
“The show starts with the wall broken down and throughout the first half bricks are built,” reveals a spokesperson. “The second half is played with the wall completely built. Roger is developing dynamic new video graphics and visual images to illustrate the story and the songs, using an 8,000 square foot wall as a huge screen. The show features all the Roger Waters scale grandeur and special effects such as original Gerald Scarfe imagery, crashing aeroplane, quadraphonic sound, pyrotechnics, spot pods, gigantic inflatable puppets, projection, video mapping and many elaborate effects.”
