“Good evening everyone. How you doing out there? You getting warm yet? A little chilly but we’ll work with it” says Belew to those who queued up outside in the cold and were now huddled and standing inside the Majestic Theatre on the first of Crimson’s two nights in Detroit.
Thankfully for band and audience things really do begin warming up and by the time the next number FraKctured has finished the bad at least are really hot. After a stomping Dinosaur, the team move into an interesting and impressionistic area for their improv, allowing this one to develop a little more than on previous occasions.
Dan Ceo on ET had this to say about the gig “I had a magnificent time and the show from my point of view was incredible. Some highlights for me: "The ConstruKction of Light," "Larks Tongues in Aspic Pt. IV/Coda: I Have a Dream," the improvs, "Elephant Talk," "Frame By Frame," the acoustic version of "Three of a Perfect Pair," actually, you know what? I really don't know. All the songs were great! The playing was more than excellent, but it was fun to see Robert Fripp and Co. make some mistakes here and there. I couldn't keep my eyes on one person at one time.”
