SHUSH! I'm going to have to chance my luck tmora!
 
Is Robert Fripp still touring with them?

Fun fact: his lass Toyah Wilcox once said that the way she checked whether he'd been behaving himself on tour was to give him a hand shandy as soon as he got home. She would look at the pop shop's strength, volume and distance to see if he'd had his balls emptied already.

They live in separate houses so he could have it away at home really

Hate the way no bastards ever play up here. They consider Manchester a token 'northern' gig even though there's a four hours drive worth of England left further north. Then it's off to Scotland they go.

I know what you mean; but not having Belew means they've been able to do other back catalogue stuff that wouldn't have suited him - have a look at the set lists from the 2014 US dates

Crimson for me is the Belew,levin,bruford set up,earlier are like a different band,each to their own.He's been part of their live set up for ever and is a massive talent

Nope,the stage started 3/4 way down the floor so you had a lump on floor level,two sections each side and the end seats with upstairs closed,and there were still lumps of empty seats.Talking to a lass who does the running and it was the worst attended on the tour including Aberdeen
 
First group I ever saw live. Newcastle City Hall 1970. (well technically there was some warm up band on first but havent a clue who they were)
