Roger Waters is not allowing anyone to stop him from meeting his fans.

Waters lost his chance to perform in Frankfurt, Germany, after the city council canceled the solo show due to the musician being "one of the world's most well-known antisemites." The musician has since reached out to his lawyers to fight the cancelation, including the May 21 show.

Roger Waters To Visit Frankfurt, Germany Despite Ban

On Instagram, the "Another Brick in the Wall" crooner posted a photo of Sophie Scholl's grave alongside a lengthy caption confirming that he would still push through with his Frankfurt, Germany show.

Scholl was a German student and anti-Nazi political activist who was convicted of high treason and executed by guillotine in 1943.

"Not that it matters much! We're coming anyway! Because human rights matter! Because free speech matters!" he wrote. "We remember Kristallnacht! Like Sophie Scholl, our fathers stood with those 3,000 Jewish men, and today we stand with the Palestinians!"

The musician also said that they would come to Frankfurt on May 28 - a week later than the original schedule.

Waters received support from fans for standing and being there for everyone. He previously scored support from Tom Morello, Nick Mason, and Eric Clapton, as well, through a petition.

He will be visiting the city despite the city council's decision to cancel his appearance. The city council holds 60 percent of the shares in Waters' show venue, Festhalle.

According to Jerusalem Post, the place was used to detain 3,000 Jewish men between Nov. 1 to 19, 1938, following an arrest. They explained that they had to come up with the decision due to Waters' alleged BDS campaign and the use of antisemitic imagery.

What Roger Waters Said

The decision came after Waters' interview with Berliner Zeitung newspaper. He told the news outlet that: "Putin [is] a bigger gangster than Joe Biden and all those in charge of American politics since World War II", and said that Putin "governs carefully, making decisions on the grounds of a consensus in the Russian Federation government."

After the interview, Pink Floyd David Gilmour's wife and the band's lyricist Polly Samson called him out and accused him of being an antisemite and a Putin apologist.

Meanwhile, Waters' representative said Samson's comments were "incendiary and wildly inaccurate."
