King Crimson Live in Conegliano, 20 June 2000

[@arekhautaluoma4276]

The Improv sections from this era are so amazing.

[@WarlikePeace]

I always get a huge kick out of seeing Adrian perform. I've seen him solo and with the Power Trio but sadly never with Crimson. I just love seeing him make extremely twisted and overtly disjointed music with such a sense of glee and humor. He really 'plays' with the music in a way few do/can.

[@jonathanedwards8696]

I've seen him with Crimson, but the most fantastic Adrian show I ever saw was his support of his "Twang Bar King" album. He was totally "on."

[@WarlikePeace]

@@jonathanedwards8696 I believe it. Twang Bar King rocks. That time period was amazing for Adrian. Coming off of all those tours playing for Zappa, Bowie, Crimson and the Heads I'm sure really prepped Adrian for his early solo tours.

[@jonathanedwards8696]

@@WarlikePeace Yes! They must have played for two hours and they did most of the material from "Lone Rhino," and Twang Bar King." The sax player was incredible and he and Adrian were really good at mimicking each other. They do that a bit on TBK but they were doing it all night at the gig and laughing out loud about it. One of my favorite shows!

I'm sure we all have our favorite KC period (I prefer the "Larks-Starless-Red" line up) but every incarnation of King Crimson is amazing. Thanks for the upload.

[@terrygunzales9101]

Red

[@worldnotworld]

Actually I don't think I have a favorite period! Some of the artier "proggie" stuff between ITCooCK and LTiA is maybe "not as good" imho, but the way they've been doing it live recently has totally revivified it and it's better than ever, better than it seemed. No other rock band has remained so consistently strong for so long, so much itself through so many innovative style and personnel changes.

[@Bjrosiy]

This lineup in the video i would say is the most spontaneous/progressive lineup, in respect to the live improvisations, and the lineup after that in 2003. I just love the e drums

[@eleuterioramalho6897]

Improvisations are timeless, they are the essence of KC and R. Fripp

[@gab2876]

@@terrygunzales9101 That is a KC lineup yes

[@timallbritton7329]

Fripp reminds me of some movie bad guy who comes off as so cultured and precise - but is a wacko murderer in reality. Nobody wields a guitar like Mr. Fripp. A master.

[@worldnotworld]

RIP Keith Tippet, who, it always seemed to me, Fripp was paying homage to on his piano-synth solo here.

[@worldnotworld]

I know KC have never liked being filmed, but I'm glad they made exceptions for this close-up live stuff here and in Bonn. Gives you a real feel of not just the wild electric edge they were riding but of the bodies in motion riding it.

[@Granadan]

Don’t forget Munich from this tour

[@mirkoburbello3604]

I was there, it was one of the best concerts that I ever seen!!!

[@Bertiebaby]

Unimaginably fantastic, as always.

[@NaviafromtheSDR]

Bonn: Stubby Fingers Conegliano: Chubby Fingers Nashville: Slimy Fingers Eyes Wide Open: Sticky Fingers Original: Spotty Fingers Belew has indeed many names for Robert Fripp's playing technique also, 25:09 Mad scientist strums his guitar like if there was no tomorrow

[@arekhautaluoma4276]

Pat and Adrian both moving their bodies....so cool.

[@alanhart439]

I believe the original was "spidey fingers." I've also seen live concert video -- I forget which one -- in which Adrian, at that same point in "Oyster Soup," exclaims, "Ah, play it for me, Mr. Fribble!"

[@prodevus]

this drummer knows whats good

[@wplvirginia5761]

I just couldn't make the DC concert this year Mr. Fripp but I have enjoyed your Pandemic home video performances ;). I will aim to catch your next tour.

[@MikesVideoMadness]

I didn't realise Heavy ConstruKction had been deleted (I do have it on CD, but it came as a shock), this is a great half-hour of the first Crimcarnation I got to see live.

[@ExxylcrothEagle]

I bought it on CD way back when, but now I don't have it... so it is out of print, they aren't selling the CD or what does deleted mean??

[@Granadan]

Not deleted now!

[@Granadan]

@@ExxylcrothEagledeleted from DGM, it’s back

[@HerbalistGuybrush]

This has to be the best opening to any KC concert ever. Fripp getting so visible angry at some douche photographing him with a flash, which is strictly forbidden at KCconcerts anyway and then just changing the tone of his gtr and play something else entirely

[@BobAzul76]

la perfección musical ....genius King Crimson

[@AkioOnishi-oz8km]

It’s true someone’s comment as king crimson are the geniuses.

[@Bibbia_senzafede]

i was...and at the end of the concert i spent evening with them....amazing luck!!!

[@christopherjobin-official7440]

King Crimson at its absolute darkest and heaviest.

[@c.alejo8846]

man, there is so much to love here. The combination of Belew and Fripp is amazing. Intricate and funky at the same time. Sex sleep eat drink dream!!!!!

[@kathowed]

Fripp's always at his best when he has good people to play 'against,' rather than with. (Just an opinion; not a fact.) Astonishing performance!

[@independentcountry9647]

Adrian with Crimson, NOW!

[@nikcopo4071]

Nah.

[@flutter8712]

So great to see them having so much fun!

[@AP-sd1fl]

I'm sure Adrian would make a funeral march "fun" too.

[@HerbalistGuybrush]

There should be a DVD of all that material, especially the improvs!

[@notaguy4289]

It is called ThrackAtaCk or something like that, it is around an hour of pure 90s improvs.

[@stonail665]

Thanks for Improv I & II . Nice moogish bassline on II.

[@ExxylcrothEagle]

the all-electric kit seems so crazy now, (no cymbals???) but this is super fun....I kinda would like to see this incarnation come up with another album and one more tour.... even though I have immensely enjoyed the latest 8 headed beast monster

[@AkioOnishi-oz8km]

Telling the truth, I had not seen the band in Concerts. You all are very lucky guys.

[@eleuterioramalho6897]

Wonderfull, very good, one of the best fripp inspiration moments. night light at Conegliano

[@klausschilling9855]

Belew is such a gift. Everything he does looks so unbelievably tender. Always with a smile. Fripp should just rehire him 😊

[@maurofriuli]

Quella sera ero li. Mi ricordo che c'erano diversi papà che avevano portato i loro figli, con la speranza di far loro rivivere i tempi di In The Court, ma che alla fine furono stravolti e spaesati dalle proposte heavy distruction di Mister Robert Fripp. Diversi andarono via prima della fine del concerto...

[@encuentrosmusicales8873]

Está muy corto el vídeo. Puedo estar horas escuchando al rey. Música que va más allá de querer ser original. Te vuela la cabeza.

[@bugeanuflorin1531]

Fabulous and Fantastic MUSIC, Thx.u

Pat is very like Drumming! Master!

[@biondipepe]

this concert is one of the most powerful I had the chance to see (thanks youtube and DGM live)

[@pierrehennecart8723]

Fantastique, pas d'autres mots : Fripp meilleurs que Jimi Hedrix, Jeff Beck et consorts de par sa technique "académique" mais surtout imagination !! Et les autres musiciens sont ausi incroyables !! Seul bémol : la voix du chanteur, mais comme musicien, pffttt...

[@jonathanedwards8696]

This lineup just can't improvise as well as the early 70s line-up could. It doesn't even sound like they're listening to each other, and they're ALL playing too many notes.

[@clivehorridge]

Surely, it’s their music not yours... or ours... Maybe they’d agree or maybe disagree, it’s not for us to comment how many notes they want to play.
