Alan Parson has followed up his big FU to BDSHole Roger Waters with an explanation as to why he will be performing here.
On Sunday, during a meeting with members of a rock community from the Rimon School of Music, he said that he had been approached by different groups asking him not to perform in Israel.
“But I replied that I would come here and perform because I don’t mix music and politics,” he said. “I see music as a superior thing and I will perform wherever I am invited to. I perform for people who enjoy listening to my music.”
..as well as posting a photo from Israel – the first one he has posted on Instagram since November, despite having performed elsewhere in the intervening months.
Did I mention he is also set to record an English-language album together with Israeli rock musician Aviv Geffen?
Roger Waters never stood a chance.
