Islands was one of the highlights of the show in Toronto in July.  Fripp and Belew have apparently locked horns over material that Belew had a part in. Don't know the details but apparently Belew is fuming.

Not sure how long these will remain free, though.


Great!  I saw "Lizard" performed in Chicago, it was *amazing!!*   This was our setlist: 


Darn it, I would have LOVED to have witnessed "Fracture" by this band!! 




Oh my god, they played Islands??

I wish tickets weren't so expensive, but I have to see them live. It would be my first Crimson show.

Lizard would be my first choice. A Sailor's Tale would also be nice.

That's weird. When I saw them Red was the biggest disappointment out of all the material I was looking forward to hear. (I'll admit I'm indifferent to most of the material released post 1974 and none of the tunes that were less than 40+ years old thrilled me) Those loudly banging drums in front of the rest of the music ruined the whole delightfully gloomy atmosphere of that tune for me. It was still a fantastic concert but I wish they had brought along atleast one drummer less on tour. Fracture*, 21st Century, Larks and surprisingly The Letters were highlights for me.

*glad I saw them while it was still on their setlist

"Discipline" would be quite something, really wondering what would come out of that one. Already loaded enough with 4 guys. 
I don't think they'll still be touring after this Fall though unfortunately. Hoping for a new studio release as the octet.
