Waters claims he is not antisemitic.
Erzin, who co-produced The Wall album, claimed Waters made up and performed for him a ditty about Pink Floyd’s agent at the time Bryan Morrison, who was also Jewish.
Statchel was told ‘don’t ever tell Roger’ about his Jewish heritage by another bandmate as it could ‘jeopardise his job’. In situations where Waters makes comments, ‘don’t react’ to these and don’t ‘take offence’. Emails allegedly from Waters in 2010, show him requesting for the concert pig to be ‘covered with symbols’ – including slurs, Star of Davids, and ‘follow the money’.Waters has denied accusations that he is an antisemite over the years, with Ezrin explaining he doesn’t think the songwriter believes he is one.
When asked directly if he believes Waters is antisemitic, Statchel said: ‘I personally do after these things that I heard and all these little things that I experienced. What else would I call it?’
