Roger Waters started his set at the Newport Folk Festival at Fort Adams State Park in Rhode Island yesterday with a new song.
JamBase.com reports Waters played piano on “Crystal Clear Brooks,” backed by guitarist G.E. Smith, My Morning Jacket and Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig from Lucius.
Waters moved to acoustic guitar for the rest of the performance. The entire set was as follows:
- Crystal Clear Brooks
- Mother
- The Bravery Of Being Out Of Range
- Hello In There (John Prine)
- Wish You Were Here
- Wide River To Cross (Buddy Miller)
- Amused To Death
- Brain Damage/Eclipse
- Forever Young (Bob Dylan)
There are photos of the performance on the Instagram account of Josh Antonuccio, owner of 3 Elliott Studio, in Athens, Ohio.
A GREAT set of songs. I am very pleased that Waters is still performing. I will be buying the new remastered blue ray disc of Roger Waters’ “Amused to Death”, this week. Roger Waters is an amazing artist; and I have followed his work for 35 years.
