Pink Floyd's Roger Waters Sparking Controversy with Nazi-Inspired Costume on German Tour
Pink Floyd's Roger Waters has sparked an uproar after images on social media showed him wearing a long, black coat with red armbands on stage at the Mercedes-Benz arena in Berlin last week.
Waters has been accused of incitement to hatred and wearing Nazi-style uniform is illegal in Germany.
Waters has denied the accusations and stated that the uniform was a statement against fascism, injustice and bigotry in all its forms.
Felix Kline, Germany's official in charge of fighting anti-Semitism, has called for authorities to be "vigilant" and concert organizers to consider whether they want to offer a platform to conspiracy theorists.
Waters is due to play his final German concert in Frankfurt on Sunday evening, and protesters are planning to demonstrate outside the venue.
