Unable to convince Bon Jovi to join his cultural boycott of Israel, Roger Waters has published an open letter harshly criticizing the band for refusing to cancel its plans for an Oct. 3 concert in Tel Aviv.

Roger Waters still hasn't determined how to move forward with a new rock album, but he seems to have hit upon a concept that might work.

Roger Waters is in trouble with Jewish leaders yet again for his comments made about Israel. The former Pink Floyd bassist recently compared the Israeli government's treatment of the Palestinians to Nazis.

A 93-year old veteran has helped Roger Waters answer one of the questions that has fueled his life's work: The former Pink Floyd bassist now has the details of his father's death.

Bruce Springsteen and Roger Waters joined an all-star lineup of comedians last night as they recognized wounded military personnel at the Bob Woodruff Foundation's annual Stand Up for Heroes benefit.

Roger Waters has admitted that he shouldn't have sued his former Pink Floyd bandmates after he left the group in 1985. In an interview scheduled to air on Sept. 19 on BBC World News, Waters said, "I did think that was wrong, and I was wrong."

A number of familiar faces will be returning to New York City this November for the seventh annual 'Stand Up for Heroes' benefit concert. Bruce Springsteen, Roger Waters and 'Daily Show' host Jon Stewart are among a list of initially confirmed performers. Jerry Seinfeld will also perform, with more expected to be named later.

The controversial decision by Roger Waters to place a Star of David on an inflatable pig during a recent performance of 'The Wall' has gotten him in hot water with leading Jewish rights organizations. Now, David Draiman of the metal band Disturbed has taken offense to Waters' actions and penned a stinging response.

Over the past year, Roger Waters has stepped up his protests over the Israeli government's treatment of the Palestinian people, calling for a cultural boycott of Israel and speaking before the United Nations on the subject. But now he is in hot water with a leading Jewish organization for using a Star of David in a controversial manner at a recent concert.

Former Pink Floyd maestro Roger Waters may be riding high with a hugely successful touring version of 'The Wall,' but that doesn't mean he would ever consider touring with his former band again. In a recent interview, the singer-songwriter and bass player spoke succinctly about the matter, saying, "It was over in 1985, and it's still over."

Roger Waters could very well fall into the category of wealth dubbed the “one percent” that’s being targeted by Occupy Wall Street, but that isn’t stopping the Pink Floyd star from supporting the nascent New York-based socioeconomic movement.
