The Curse Of Vrooom manifests again tonight, this time pointing firmly at the guitarist from Wimborne, who recalls, “In the first Fairy Fingers on F sharp, suddenly I found myself thinking "this isn't sharp - it's natural". So, I modulated down a semitone. Then, realising very quickly it was sharp, modulating back up again. But not quite quick enough. Meanwhile Trey was wondering whether to follow me down, as Adrian was looking at his fingerboard in puzzled disbelief, but decided to stay where he was. A sure sign the band is maturing: if one of the guys goes out on a limb, the other members are now inclined to smile and wave as it snaps beneath them.”

But what care the good punters of Tokyo’s Sun Plaza of this minor digression from the piece as we know it? Not at all after they are served up spot-on renditions of Thela, Frame and TCOL and what might be the most brutal, bulldozing version of Oyster Soup on this tour and maybe even a few others as well. And while the guitars come unstuck in time once or twice during FraKctured, it must be said that this is an energetic and engaged-sounding Crimso.
