I am so glad I found this site!
I didn’t attend this night, but I was at the Greek Theatre 2 nights previous.
The Greek is an outdoor amphitheatre nestled in the Hollywood hills. It was a beautiful night and I was so excited to see The Crim as my boyfriend called them. He was a fan since Court of the Crimson King, and I’d just become a fan with Discipline.
Because of my work schedule, I wasn’t sure I could go, so my borfriend and his buddy got their tickets. Then I found out I could go and I got my ticket for myself.
Good thing I did because as a single ticket, I ended up IN THE CENTER TENTH ROW!!! 
I was delighted when the show started and Adrian Belew walked out to this little wooden box and started playing the opening of "Waiting Man", one of my favorite songs from the album. He was joined by Fripp, the Levin, and then Bruford.
In the years since, whenever anyone asks me to name the best concerts I’ve ever seen, this is the first one that comes to mind.
Each of the guys was absolutely stellar in their musicianship. All of them played their asses off. And I gloated all the way home because...well...I WAS IN THE CENTER TENTH ROW!!!
Thanks for making this wonderful memory available for download.
