Wowza! This is super cool!! Thanks for sharing!!! Those three albums they will be covering (Beat, Discipline and Three of a Perfect Pair) are among my favorite KC material ;~)) And for the whole thing to have RF's approval is nuts on the whipped cream on the icing of a delicious cake! Dig me, but don't bury me!

I just got a ticket for the Boston show.
 
I’ll probably check out the Ft. lauderdale show, I love that venue. Not a big Crimson fan, but I’m more than happy to pay money to see Danny Carey and Vai onstage together.
 
9/17 – San Diego, CA @ Humphrey’s Concerts

This couldn't be a more perfect venue for them. I've seen two shows here and it's really a an awesome vibe.

I just want to know if Steve will have to play seated as King Robert The Fripp does?? :unsure:

Also, will Steve leave the Fan off the Tour? And what is the over/under on how many times
Vai plays legato with his left hand while raising his right hand high in the sky and pointing
to the heavens? :idk
 
All I know is I've seen Tony Levin live 3 times over the years starting with 2nd row, center stage in 1986 for the Peter Gabriel So tour and he may just be the baddest mutherf*cker to ever wield an axe on stage. If this is going to be your first time you're in for a treat over and above what you're already expecting!
