Alan Parsons doesn't give in to Roger Waters
British musician and songwriter Alan Parsons refused to cancel his performance in Tel Aviv on Tuesday, despite a personal appeal from former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters. [...]I praise him for not putting politics before entertainment, unlike Waters, who does, and whose albums are not worth buying if he keeps this up.
In a response to Mr. Waters, Mr. Parsons wrote on Facebook: "I appreciate your note and your passion. However, this is a political matter and I am simply an artist."
"I create music, that is my raison d'être. Everyone — no matter where they reside, what religion they follow, or what ideology they aspire to — deserves to hear it if they so choose," he added. "Music knows no borders, and neither do I."
