Written by Geogaddi

I’m absolutely delighted that I was fortunate enough to see King Crimson for the first time on the 6th and 7th at Park West. I just discovered KC about a year and a half ago (I’m 19 now), and I was truly terrified that I’d never have a chance to see them perform.

The music was tremendous. Both nights were absolutely riveting; my mind was drenched in musical bliss. As far as the set list goes, I could not have asked for a better selection. Song after song, a feeling of elation enveloped me, and I could not begin to stop smiling. I can only hope that I’ll have a chance to see them again!

Thank you to everyone that performed, on and off of the stage. These two nights will remain etched in my mind for all my life.

And thank you, Mr. Fripp, for giving me my passion.

The Mighty Crim isn't dead!   Sun., May 16, 2010
Posted by: Slipstream
If it weren’t for the odd mix I’d give this show a six-star rating, but I felt that it had to be reduced to a "mere" five... Let’s face it, King Crimson’s flame delayed to begin to catch that night, however, Read more
