  KC and Tool in Portland July 18, 2012
Written by sqeele
The staff at the Schnitzer concert hall were really frightened. They were not used to Toolfan, who is a little too close to Insane Clown Posse Fan for comfort. There was a long backup at the metal detectors, because EVERYONE was setting them off with the studs in their jackets or whatever else they were wearing. My girl couldn’t get in until she removed her jewelry. We had to take it back to the car.
As a result, the Crims were dangerously curving before we even got in. It was hard to hear the pianissimo at the beginning because of the insane clowns who were tromping down the aisles, happy to gain entrance to the theater in Portland where the symphony plays.
Crimson’s 60-minute set was a blistering salvo. They hit it out of the park.
Tool was clearly inspired. Gunn, Mastelotto, and Fripp sat in where they could.
Gratitude to Trey Gunn. This show was a peak experience in my life. Thanks Trey.

Not only is the performance wrought with tension, which means in this case the musicians are paying attention to each other, but the recording sounds as if the band is playing right in front of you in a small Read more

Just purchased this lovely little sucker today and cannot get enough of it. Crimson are in super-fine form at this Kokusai Hall show. The playing is extremely tight, with a very special aura of magic encircling Read more

Now this is indeed lovely in every way--including the recording quality, and the mix!
I would say it’s Crimso ’cK’araoke time, but Ian’s flute soloing is too beautiful to sing over here: this definitely works as an (alternate) instrumental Read more
