I had never seen the mighty King Crimson play live before – not surprising, as I was only ten years old when the band last played my home town in 1974! I’m no longer a frequent concert-goer, but when I heard that they had added an extra date at the Birmingham Symphony Hall, I realised that this was probably my one and only chance to see any incarnation of this band live on stage.
Ambient, relaxing music was playing before the show started – probably some Frippertronics. Just before the show started, there was a recorded announcement from the band, asking fans not to take photos or record the show. Even Tony Levin said that he would not be taking photos on this tour (Levin is well known for documenting his many shows photographically).
