Eric Clapton, Nick Mason and many more have signed a petition seeking a reversal of the decision made by officials on the Frankfurt City Council to bar Roger Waters' from performing in the city.

Waters was originally scheduled to play on May 28 at the Festhalle concert hall as part of the "This Is Not a Drill tour."

However, the German city of Frankfurt canceled the concert, accusing Waters of antisemitism.

In a statement announcing the show's cancellation, Frankfurt's municipal government called the former Pink Floyd frontman one of the world's "most widely-known antisemites."

Another concert, set to take place in Munich on May 21, was canceled shortly afterward.

The petition calling for the reversal of the decision was initiated by comedian and political commentator Katie Halper earlier this month.

It has attracted support from several celebrities, including Brian Eno, Peter Gabriel, Rage Against The Machine's Tom Morello and Soft Machine founder Robert Wyatt.

"The officials vilifying Waters are engaging in a dangerous campaign that purposely conflates criticism of Israel's illegal and unjust policies with antisemitism," a petition summary reads.

More than 10,000 signatures have been collected so far.
