Written by crimson_king22

I have this show on compact disk when it was released 5 years ago, and played it in my car for the first time the day it arrived in the mail, hotly anticipating the full versions of the improv and Easy $$.  The latter was outrageous, given that I am a fan of any Crimso use of the Hohner Pianet, also Fripp’s psychotic sustained fuzz guitar solo; but poor David Cross seems to gotten a little lost in the beginning of the improv.  He hits a couple of bad notes on the mellotron as the piece begins to unfold.  Otherwise, a good concert.

One question: did Fripp make any announcements to the audience that night?  The concert is pure music, with no Fripp banter.  Can anyone who might have been there remember if Robert Fripp said anything into the mic that night, and, if so, what did he say?

Thank you in advance.
