Roger Waters & John Prine Unite at Newport Folk Festival

Roger Waters surprise appearance with John Prine @ Newport Folk Festival 2017

Roger Waters joined John Prine onstage Sunday for a surprise appearance during the folk legend’s headlining set at the 2017 Newport Folk Festival. The duo performed an intimate rendition of 1971’s “Hello in There,” a highlight from Prine’s self-titled debut LP.

Waters and Prine tackled the tune by fingerpicking a pair of acoustic guitars, backed by cymbal swells and Lucius’ soulful backing vocals. The former Pink Floyd bassist – who covered “Hello in There” during his 2015 Newport set – handled lead vocals on the second verse and added rugged harmonies throughout.

Prine’s star-studded, fest-closing set featured several other guest performers, including Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon, My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James, Margo Price and Nathaniel Rateliff. The stage flooded with dozens of other festival performers during the closing rendition of “Paradise.”

Roger Waters : Hour-long Facebook Live conversation

Hosted by the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI), Waters will discuss his support for the cultural boycott of Israel and Palestinians’ rights with Noura Erakat, a Palestinian human rights attorney and activist.

The conversation will stream live on the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) Movement’s Facebook page at 1 p.m. ET.

“All of the people that live in that region should have rights — all our Jewish friends who are in Israel who live there, but also all our Palestinian and Arab friends. They should have equal rights. And that is my only beef. Just as all the people who live in the United States of America should have equal rights. All of them, regardless of their color, creed, race or religion.”

– Roger Waters (on his beef with Israel over its dispute with Palestine)
