One fan who ponied up $500 for the so-called “super deluxe” boxset of “Roger Waters<\/strong> The Wall” got a surprise: Instead of being autographed by Waters, the 170-page hardcover book included with fan Jim Clarke<\/strong>‘s box reads “Love Jimmy Smith.”<\/p>\n Fans have put forth two theories to explain the anomaly: Either Waters grew tired of signing all 3,000 boxes and decided to play a prank. Or someone else was hired to sign on Waters’ behalf and experienced a momentary lapse of reason when he accidentally signed his own name.<\/p>\n Music publication NME has asked Waters’ camp for comment, but none are forthcoming just yet.<\/p>\n Either way, in the end, this botched box might end up being worth even more than if Waters had signed his own name to it.<\/p>\n Surrogate band indeed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One fan who ponied up $500 for the so-called “super deluxe” boxset of “Roger Waters The Wall” got a surprise: Instead of being autographed by Waters, the 170-page hardcover book included with fan Jim Clarke‘s box reads “Love Jimmy Smith.” Fans have put forth two theories to explain the anomaly: Either Waters grew tired of […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,13,8,15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-merchandise","category-personnel","category-recordings","category-roger-waters"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7305"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7305\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7307,"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7305\/revisions\/7307"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.floydianslip.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
