Pink Floyd veteran Roger Waters relocated an upcoming concert in Israel to a mixed Jewish-Arab village. Waters, famed for the band’s 1970s hit “Another Brick in the Wall,” had been scheduled to perform June 22 in Tel Aviv, but Ha’aretz reported Monday that the venue was changed to Neveh Shalom, a small community of Israeli Jews and Arabs between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, because Waters wants to “promote coexistence.”
