The Sprint Center

It all began with a homeless man.

Roger Waters‘ magnum opus, The Wall, was unveiled in live form at the Sprint Center on Saturday night. The Pink Floyd masterpiece — one of the most commercially successful albums ever, and an irrefutable piece of pop culture history — would claim the stage with searchlights, fireworks, gigantic disturbing puppets and mind-boggling projections. But first, the audience snapped pictures of a guy pushing a shopping cart around the arena’s floor, with a sign: HOMELESS NEED MONEY FOR BOOZE AND HOOKERS.
