Here’s one thing that most classic rock fans can agree on:

More Pink Floyd is always better.

Thus, Bay Area classic rockers will be happy to hear that Roger Waters — the mastermind behind so much of Floyd’s best music — has added a second show in San Francisco.

Waters will be performing Pink Floyd classics, plus his own solo material, when he brings his This Is Not a Drill Tour  to Chase Center Sept. 25-26.

The newly added second night, Sept. 26, goes on sale at noon Feb. 28. See rogerwaters.com for details.

Waters also performs Sept. 23 at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento.

The all-new production is being performed “in the round” — which is a first for Waters — and it is said to continue the artist’s “message of love.”

“It’ll be a new show. It will be no-holds-barred,” Waters said in a Rolling Stone interview, according to his website. “My work is to think, ‘Well, how can I make rock & roll more interesting or theatrical or exciting or visual or musical or whatever?’ That’s what I’ve spent the last 50 years doing, expressing myself.”

The tour kicks off on July 8 in Pittsburgh on July 8.

It’s the artist’s first outing since the incredible Us + Them tour, which played the SAP Center at San Jose in June 2017. And it might just have been the best show of that year. Read our review here.

Waters was also great during the 2016 Bridge School Benefit concerts at Shoreline Amphitheatre at Mountain View. Read our coverage here.
