Roger Waters - The Wall LiveIn Argentina, Wall mania has gripped Buenos Aires and in order to satisfy overwhelming public demand a record breaking seventh River Plate show has been announced, taking place on March 17th, 2012; ticketing dates to be announced. The first five Stadium shows sold out in 48 hours, causing promoter, Roberto Costa of Pop Art, to hastily add a sixth show to satisfy fans who had queued all night for tickets. The sixth show sold out in a day and now Roger Waters has announced a seventh show at the famous River Plate Stadium, a new record, beating the previous holders, The Rolling Stones, who played five nights on their first visit to South America back in 1998.

As a side note, but certainly VERY significant to a number of you, Roger's official site notes that the Brazilian dates are being rescheduled due to public demand for the extra shows in Argentina. Looking at the schedule we're wondering if it might just be one of the shows moved (the one originally scheduled for the 17th) but as and when details come through, we will let you all know.
