The municipality of Frankfurt announced on Friday that it is canceling the upcoming show of former Pink Floyd singer Roger Waters, citing his alleged status as “one of the world’s most well-known antisemites” as the reason.

Since 60% of the “Festhalle” shares belonged to the municipality, the city council was able to cancel the performance. They had submitted their decision to a judge to cancel Waters’s appearance beforehand.

Waters can still play at a private venue. Chick Corea is also banned from any publicly owned venue in Germany because of his association with Scientology.
