The Mellotron Group

Well, I'm certainly over REM. I did enjoy the 21st Century Schizoid Band  
when I saw them. But that's just me. Wouldn't mind seeing Fripp & I like  
Tony Levin (nice guy).

I saw King Crimson's 40th anniversary concert with Porcupine  tree's
drummer as well as Pat Mastellato (sp?) ....They kicked my ass and  for a
band that has nothing to say I heard "go home and practice" pretty  loud
and clear. I do think that Fripp has to have a "songwriter" on board  to do
any of the real classical Crimson work....
