q: are you in the new King Crimson planned for next september 2014?
a: no. after 32 years I am no longer in King Crimson.
q: were you asked to be in the new King Crimson?
a: no, I was not. robert informed me in an email that he was starting a 7-piece version of the band. he said I would not be right for what the band is doing.
q: so, how do you feel?
a: "happy with what I have to be happy with". which is quite a lot.
I'm busy creating something I've wanted to create all my life, something which has never been done. FLUX: never the same twice. creatively I'm exploding with new ideas, songs, and music. in 60 days I'll be touring south america with my beloved Power Trio and next spring I'll be touring europe with Crimson Project, which is a celebration of the crimson music
tony, pat, and I have help create. life is great.
q: what would you like to say to crimson fans about the new King Crimson?
a: my advice is to check it out and if you like it: support it.
and on that note: thanks to all of you for your continued support of my music.
cheers!
The Elements of King Crimson というツアータイトルだけしか知らず、何をやるのか分からないまま行ってきましたが、まさかのLarks' Tongues in Aspic Part 1からPictures of a Cityt という選曲で、本当に鼻血が出るかと思いました。 上記セットリストを見てもらうと分かりますが、彼らの歴史のエッセンスを抽出した今までに無いShowでした。
もし日本でツアーをやるようでしたら是非お見逃し無く。
