Crims talk changes

Jakko Jakszyk and Mel Collins have been talking to local press ahead of the band's appearance in Huntington and New York. "It was so intense in the early ’70s, I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Robert used to sit on the other side of the stage and if you made a mistake, you’d get this look from him that could kill,” say Mel in the piece.

Meanwhile, Tony joined Mel for this next piece ahead of the band's appearances in Philadelphia. Mel says "This King Crimson band that I am in, a King Crimson of which Robert and all of us are very proud of, has allowed me to play probably the best music I have ever played live before in my career. The standard of musicianship is outstanding, and even the mistakes prove creative.”
