Has anybody seen these guys?  I think I recall quite a few postings a few months back and they were quite favorable.   Just want to double check.  I may be in Georgia at the time and wondered if it was worth a catch.  Don't think they use a real Mellotron though.

21st CENTURY SCHIZOID BAND
Friday, April 23, 8:30pm, $25
21st Century Schizoid Band is a five-piece band comprised of ex-King Crimson members Ian McDonald (keyboards, saxes, vocals), Mel Collins (keyboards, saxes), Peter Giles (bass, backing vocals), and Ian Wallace (drums), with Jakko Jakszyk (guitars, vocals). In essence, this is a King Crimson all-star team that performs music from the first five Crimson albums, and it has a surprisingly large amount to offer. This line-up is what Crimson might have become had it splintered in a different direction or two after 1969. The group possesses of a lot talent and is still inventive on the old repertory
