Roger Waters and his son Harry are scheduled to present their fresh production dedicated to Pink Floyd’s catalog at Dublin’s 3Arena on June 29, 2027, with passes becoming available this Friday, October 9, at 9 a.m., as shared by rte.ie. The production, titled Legacy – A Pink Floyd Show, will feature Harry and a 10-piece band playing material from the group’s golden era between 1971 and 1979, while 83-year-old Roger directs the production.
Harry Waters Leads Tour Recreating Original Recordings
Aiming to mirror the original studio tracks as closely as possible, the upcoming tour will pull tracks from legendary records such as The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977), and The Wall (1979). Ultimate Classic Rock reported that while Roger Waters created the show under his direction, he will not perform on the tour. Instead, 49-year-old Harry Waters serves as musical director, leading the ensemble on B3 organ, piano, and vocals. Following an exhaustive search for the right vocalist, Clifton David Broadbridge was chosen to handle Roger’s distinctive vocal parts, according to Ultimate Classic Rock.
Collaborative Family History On and Off Stage
For Harry Waters, the production represents a continuation of a lifelong involvement with the music. Growing up around the band, Harry recalled visiting his father during The Wall performances at London’s Earls Court in 1980 when he was three years old. Describing his early connection to the songs, Harry stated that he fell in love with the music immediately, noting that it had a profound impact on him irrespective of any family bias. Ultimate Classic Rock noted that the tour schedule spans an extensive run across North America and Europe, beginning on February 15, 2027, in Columbus, Georgia, before concluding its North American dates on September 25 in St. Louis, Missouri, ahead of international stops like Dublin.
