Can I get the rights to perform The Wall?
Hey, I'm a hamphire college student, and I want to know whom I'd speak to in order to acquire rights to perform Pink Floyd's The Wall as a staged show. Is it owned by one of the major licensing companies, or is it something you need to get band permission for? Thanks,
-Mark

I would assume that you just need to get ASCAP or BMI license, because there aren't any lines other than the lyrics.

Rog said he gives it out for schools and non-profits.

If he gives out rights for schools and non-profits, that'd be great. Do I need to contact him for his permission or just go with it?

Maybe he'll use your college choir to upgrade from a kiddie choir (on the Wall) to an adult choir for the next album.

Oh yeah! A complete masterpiece! Kinda makes you wonder where the heck Pros and Cons, Radio KAOS, and Amused to Death came from. Surely not from Roger!

On the next album, I'm sure Rog will have plenty to complain about now, too. I'm sure he had a whole album about how he feels about the whole Iraq deal, but he knows it wouldn't do well in the U.S. It's all marketing!

Are you saying Roger would sacrifice his principles for the sake of bags of cash?

A

Capitalism -- An economic system in which the means of production and distribution are privately or corporately owned and development is proportionate to the accumulation and reinvestment of profits gained in a free market

A + B = my reply
