A Whole Lotta Hartford Goin' On June 19, 1996
Written by Mike Stack
Last night was the G3 show in Hartford,
so myself and two of my friends headed over to check out RF, basically. Showed
up around 6pm or so, were checking
out the merchandise when we heard RF starting up. Headed in, checked out the
show. He played from 6-7:20 or so, sat off to my left (we were pretty much dead
centre). Lots of interesting stuff, seemed to be a lot more chordal strumming than
on the albums he's put out. At one point towards the end of RF's set, some
idiot started screaming and yelling and banging the chair in front of him.
Fripp got louder. Idiot got louder. Fripp got louder. Fripp also looked
somewhat annoyed at this point.
A few interesting notes about RF's performance
-most the crowd didn't give a damn, including some guy dressed all snazzily
in his business suit, who didn't shut up the whole night.
-RF occasionally got up, took off his guitar, and walked further to my left
to talk to someone else. Don't know who.
-RF wore a white shirt untucked and black pants, while switching to a black
shirt during the encore (more later...).
-No one smoked anything illegal during Fripp's set, something that couldn't
be said for the rest.

Short and sweet. This and the other three tone probes for a buck make for a good experiment in smaller cheaper faster. How about Robert practicing scales next, or interesting sound check Read more

Initially, this concert moved me the least of any of the four from December 2005. That changed today. Listening to the final track in my car, VERY loud, as rain and snow began to fall, it really hit Read more

This, the last performance of Robert’s "December Suite", is, for me, the most moving of the four released so far. While there does seem to be some search occuring here, some of the mournful longing found on the newer recordings Read more

Just coming back from holidays in South America. Your music brought me back there from the cold Netherlands. It looks, sounds and feels like the Chilean skies. Thanks.
