Finally got to see one of my favorite prog bands of all time last night in Dallas. I got into them a bit late, during the Discipline-Beat-TOAPP era, but I've been a big fan ever since. If you get a chance, it's well worth attending. I waxed a bit poetic in the review I posted on FB:
A theater unto itself, a King Crimson concert is a humbling display of power, precision, and passion. At times subtle and delicate, but unfailingly relentless and implacable all the while. I sat in bewilderment, my attention passing quickly from musician to instrument and back again, barely able to keep up with their performances. Moving from joy to sadness, from confusion to clarity, from gobsmacked to gleeful, I was blown away by this night. These world class musicians were a sight to behold and brought a wondrous spiritual rhapsody, of a kind I've never quite witnessed before. Thank you, gentlemen, thank you indeed.
