Notes
Here’s KC in KC! The Madrid Theatre is noted for reputedly having received the patronage of notorious gangster, Al Capone. With bullet-holes peppering the walls below stage, King Crimson are no strangers to a different kind of firepower and the unleash it with force tonight in what might well be a real highpoint of the tour so far. Virtuous Circle becomes wonderfully elongated prior to RF's spectral appearance, with Trey repeating a single note, wafting in the draft of Mastelotto's ever-shifting percussion and allsorts.

Pat Mastelotto recalls that "the stage sound was very strong from my seat...and the band seemed to be riding a wave. . . .after Ade broke a string we altered the set list on the fly and it seemed to have a great flow (shorter set/longer encores)"

One eye-witness, Sydburnz had this to say about the show and demonstrated how sometimes our enthusiasm can get the better of us all. “One member of the audience was getting into the music so much, he reached up onto the stage and moved some of the equipment which in turn bumped one of the red spotlights right in front of the guitarist, Adrian. Adrian was going into this extensive guitar solo, I was surprised he didnt get thrown off. It took a long time for security to apprehend this dude. He was a big guy. One of the members of the audience tried to pull him away, but to no avail. Also, Robert Fripp didnt do much, but sit there with a content smile on his face watching the others perform while he played his riffs. His back was sorta turned to some of the audience, I felt sorry for them. He wasnt in the spotlight, and even when they took a bow, he was still in the dark.”
