   I was at the Boston show on the 5th.  To be honest, I went to see Fripp and Belew, as I'd never heard a note of PT.  Needless to say, ProjeKCt 6 was a major disappointment.  I rather enjoyed PT.  They opened with around 7-8 tunes from their upcoming album, took a 5 minute break (it literally was 5 minutes, kudos), and did some older material.

Being completely objective, I'd have to say that the new material was quite a bit more entertaining than the older material.  That said, the bass work on the new material was little more than a drop-dead bore.  The bassist's work on the older material was far better.

Crazy light show, tight crunchy odd time sigs.  Not too bad.  I'll probably pick up their forthcoming album.
