In the Court of the Crimson King is my current fave KC song at the moment.

Followed by Cadence and Cascade ^^ b'boom is kinda funky too.

Interesting news here: the band composed of classic KC members and plays many of original KC's songs, 21st Century Schizoid Band is coming to America

I'm too far out of reach, but anyone who's close to them - I strongly suggest checking them out. Thus far, the band's work had a very positive response, and the musicians are as good as ever...

From Georgia to Virginia... Totally jumping over me in North Carolina. DRAT! (Dang it, why couldn't they come to Atlanta back when I lived there?)

On the bright side, King Crimson usually doesn't. I think they played 2 shows there last year, one of which turned out to be an unscheduled ProjeKct 3 show + Q&A session.

Also, Atlanta is frequented by Fripp's Guitar Craft seminars, which are often followed by performances of participants. I'll mention it if something of the sort happens again

Fripp hates touring with KC in Europe, and last summer's tour pushed him over, so that is a bit of a push.

However, he will tour Europe, especially UK, with G3 this year (Satriani, Vai, Fripp)

Oh wait, you meant 21st CSB!

Yea, since they're all British, Europe is still their mainstay ^_^
