13 shows from the UK & Netherlands are now available to download from dgmlive.
After the success of the US shows in 2014, King Crimson returned the following year to play the UK for the first time since 2000. As the 90s and 2000s lineups had only visited London, the 2015 dates are the first full British tour by the band since the 80s, (and several of the cities visited had not seen a Crimson show since the 70s). They also dipped into mainland Europe for 3 nights in Paris (not available in this series for contractual reasons) and two more in Utrecht, Netherlands. There was some new material added to the set of Crimson classics with Suitable Grounds For The Blues, Radical Action and Meltdown all newly written during rehearsals and making their first appearances live in concert, not to mention the return of two of the songs that started it all, The Court Of The Crimson King and Epitaph being played live again after more than 40 years!
The first @KingCrimson UK Tour dates of the 21st century are now streaming for the the first time at nugs.net/kingcrimson.
Listen to 13 shows from the 2015 'Elements Tour,' which welcomed new material including "Suitable Grounds For The Blues," "Radical Action," and "Meltdown," - plus returning for the first time in 40 years, the beloved "The Court Of The Crimson King" and "Epitaph."
