I am devastated to hear the news of the death of my friend and hero Jeff Beck, whose music has thrilled and inspired me and countless others for so many years. Polly‘s and my thoughts go out to his lovely wife Sandra. He will be forever in our hearts.

Every word demonstrably true.
Sadly @rogerwaters you are antisemitic to your rotten core. Also a Putin apologist and a lying, thieving, hypocritical, tax-avoiding, lip-synching,misogynistic, sick-with-envy, megalomaniac. Enough of your nonsense.

Today marks 50 years since Phil Taylor began his time as my guitar technician and I couldn’t be more grateful to him for looking after not only my gear, but my studios and my sound, with such care and expertise. Thanks so much Phil.
