I looked at it but just couldn't make it work. I'm going to see if I can combine one of their US dates with business - maybe Philly in late September. I'm sure you will have a special time.
Would love to see that - incredible band! Is this with the three drummer, Mel Collins and Tony Levin line-up? Saw some footage of that and it looked amazing.
Wasn’t that full last night in the gods, would have been tickets to spare. We picked up tickets outside from a tout face value £75 for £60 which seemed better than paying the £8 per ticket booking fee.
understand it will be busier tonight and more or less full Thursday.
i guess as a band they may want to be constantly evolving but as a fan, personally, I don’t want this, I want to listen to the music I’ve grown up to love as they were originally recorded, they are one of my favourite bands and have remained a constant on my musical journey.
Part of the problem is the constant changing personnel, I don’t particularly like the current singer and I don’t think he gave justice to some of the classic tracks. I did however like it when Adrian Belew was the frontman particularly on the Discipline album.
Easy Money I felt was butchered and to stick a drum solo in the middle of 21st Schizoid Man was criminal, even though he was a very good drummer.
They of course received a standing ovation but not from me.

One of my all-time favourite bands.
i saw them about five years ago in Hackney and they had two drummers then, if they’ve now recruited a third should be amazing.
