Pink Floyd founder Roger Waters is bringing his historic "In The Flesh" show to the UK for his first homeland concerts since his "Radio K.A.O.S." performance at London's Wembley Arena in 1987. In addition to marking his first UK performances in 15 years, Waters' "In The Flesh" World Tour 2002 will be the rock legend's first European solo shows since 1984's brief "The Pros & Cons Of Hitchhiking" sojourn.

Prior to his 1999-2000 North American presentations of "In The Flesh," Waters sole major performance of the 1990's was the legendary 1990 production of "The Wall" in Berlin, an historic event which took place in front of more than 350,000 people at the site of the then- newly-destroyed Berlin Wall. "The Wall" attracted a live television audience of more than 100 million viewers.

The summers of 1999 and 2000 found Roger Waters and his newly-created "In The Flesh" retrospective shows selling out 50 North American concerts. Demand for tickets was so intense that many concert venues were changed mid-tour and upgraded to larger capacity arenas and amphitheaters.

The popular demand for seats was matched by critical acclaim for the shows. Music writers praised the power of Waters' performances, the timelessness of his music, the show's intimate production values and seamless structure. The San Jose Mercury News reported that the show "was rock as art, with the kind of concern for sound rarely seen today." And the Fort Worth Star Telegram raved that "his long, luscious two-set show made up mainly of Floyd classics was on a more human scale… this show felt like a celebration." The Los Angeles Times was equally enthusiastic and wrote, "the show illustrated the extent to which Waters operatic rock has influenced generations."

"In The Flesh" presents, for the first time, a comprehensive overview of Waters' music including: early Pink Floyd material; classic compositions from his masterpieces "The Wall" and "Dark Side Of The Moon"; less well-known pieces from "Animals," "Wish You Were Here," and "The Final Cut"; songs from the solo tours de force "Amused To Death" and "The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking"; and the debut of a new song "Each Small Candle."

The "In The Flesh" shows utilize elaborate large-scale video projections, theatrical set-pieces, and a dazzling array of special effects to underscore and accentuate the power of the music which is delivered via a state-of-the-art 360° quadraphonic sound system immersing the audience in a 3-dimensional hyperworld.

Snowy White - guitar
Chester Kamen - guitar and vocal

Roger Waters co-founded the groundbreaking Pink Floyd with Syd Barrett in 1966 and became the group's sonic architect upon Barrett's departure, creating such undeniable classics as "Dark Side Of The Moon" (which spent nearly 15 years on the Billboard 200 album chart), "The Wall" (which has been certified 23x RIAA platinum), "Animals," "Wish You Were Here," and "Final Cut." Following "Final Cut," Roger Waters left Pink Floyd.

His first full-length solo album, "The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking," was released in April 1984, to great critical and popular success, generating his first solo tour. June 1987's "Radio K.A.O.S." continued the path of solo success, bringing Roger back to the stage. His last full-length solo album, the moody and ironic "Amused To Death," considered by many to be a comparable achievement to "Dark Side Of The Moon" or "The Wall," was released in August 1992.

Waters has been working on "Ca Ira" (pronounced "sa-ira"), an opera in English and French, as well as a new rock album to be released in 2002.
