Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters, who has long been estranged from the group, will perform the classic Pink Floyd album "Dark Side of the Moon" in its entirely during an upcoming tour of North America.
Waters has lined up an 18-city itinerary that opens Sept. 6 in New Jersey, and concludes with an Oct. 12 appearance in Seattle. The full itinerary is below.
According to a Columbia Records press release, Waters' upcoming shows will include two full sets plus encores, "with state-of-the-art staging, lighting and sound."
The first set will feature an overview of Waters' musical career, including selections from throughout his run as Pink Floyd's primary songwriter and songs from his solo album "Amused to Death."
The second set will feature Waters and a full band performing "Dark Side of the Moon" from start to finish. The album was issued in 1973, and remained on The Billboard 200 album chart for a record-breaking 15 years.
Waters band for the tour features Andy Fairweather-Low (guitar, vocals), Snowy White (guitar), Dave Kilminster (guitar, vocals), Jon Carin (keyboards, vocals), Graham Broad (drums), Harry Waters (Hammond organ), Ian Ritchie (saxophone), and Katie Kissoon, PP Arnold and Carol Kenyon (vocals).
The classic Pink Floyd lineup--Waters, guitarist/vocalist David Gilmour (tickets | music), drummer Nick Mason and keyboardist Richard Wright--performed together at last year's Live 8 benefit concert, marking the first time the group appeared together since 1981.
