Don’t be silly. This is the man who sued his bandmates for continuing to use the Pink Floyd name. He loves his money.

Great to see artists doing this.I recently closed my Facebook account as I loathe censorship and am becoming more and more intolerant to it.
Nate
Well done, Nate. Facebook and Twitter are becoming more and more censorious, not to mention being cesspools of negativity that waste people's time and create division and hatred in society.
They are the opposite of IORR, in other words.

All private sites have rules, though
When that is said, on Facebook you can't even post an album cover without expecting the hounds to be on your trail.

I agree any private site is entitled to make it’s own rules but some of the rules are ludicrous.I attempted to post a Helmut Newton photograph on Facebook but it turns out you are not allowed to show nudity.
What on earth is wrong with looking at a beautiful naked woman.

It doesn't offend me in the least as I was just speaking as to the logic of the rules of decencyQuote
Nate
What’s wrong with a kid seeing a photograph of a naked woman it’s completely natural.There is a gargantuan difference between a Helmut Newton photograph of a nude and some low class porno photo they are two completely different things.
As the son of an art director I grew up being surrounded by great images some of which were nudes and it did me no harm at all.

Roger Waters goes off on Mark Zuckerberg regarding his request to use the song "Another Brick In The Wall II". I'm not a fan of Pink Floyd or Waters, but I'll give the man props for speaking his mind regarding his art/work. This might be out there regarding verboten topics here. If so, BV, please disappear it. I'm not posting it up to offend anyone.

Roger had quite the reaction to itQuote

My sentiments exactly. I’ve never been a fan of Pink Floyd but when I saw the article yesterday, I thought, “Good for him”.
Well,you are judging him for giving his opinion by giving your opinion.In other words, in your opinion he shouldnt have his opinion.Quote

I am confused. Roger Waters has an Instagram account. If he doesn’t want his music used to promote it, that’s fair. But to rail against a mechanism you use to promote your music is hypocritical.
Naughty Roger, wanting it both ways. All in all it’s all about selling.
I think an artist is entitled to speak up and be vocal where his 'art" is used and where he doesn't want it . After all he created it and is entitled to use it as he sees fit .Quote

"Pink Floyd are done", David Gilmour recently said (in connection with Momentary Laps of Reason Reissue), "but I am all for Roger going out on the road and having all of whatever fun he can get".
