Roger Waters will start work on his next studio album of original music
after his 2012 leg of The Wall Live tour completes
on 21st July at a spectacular outdoor concert at Les Plaines D'Abraham in
Quebec, Canada.

Roger Waters New Album 2013?
In an interview in the New York Times today, when asked has he been writing
any new songs,
Roger Waters responded, "I have. I have written so much, and it’s been 20
years since I made a record.
I came up with a song a few weeks ago on the road and then I started playing
it a bit with the band in rehearsals.
I think it may be the central part and also the kicking-off point for
another album."
When asked will he start work on the album when The Wall tour closes on 21st
July, Roger said,
"Yes. If I don’t work on it later this year, it might disappear, and I might
never do anything again.
So I think I have to and I’m very enthusiastic about it.
And it encompasses a lot of the other songs I’ve written over the years.
There are tons of them. I just never found a big enough hook to hang them
around."

Roger Waters Tour 2013 in Europe
Roger Waters was also asked would this be his last tour. He gave a very
encouraging response that "I haven’t made up my mind.
I’ve become very enamored of the outdoor show. It was a super challenge to
see if we could take the arena production and made
it work outdoors, and it works beautifully, but it is unbelievably
expensive. So we are trying to figure out ways to make the numbers
add up to go to Europe late next summer, in 2013. This show is such fun to
do that I think I’ve got some more in me."
The last of Roger Waters albums to be released was the opera Ca Ira which
was divisive amongst fans due to it being an opera and not a rock album as
people are accustomed to.
If Roger is working with his current touring band on rehearsing some of the
songs he has been writing, then this would suggest that it could well
be the rock album he has been referring to for the past decade! Let us hope
that it sees the light of day.
