Well I've got permission now to share this, so... it looks like the Keith Emerson Band will be going out the end of Oct on a west coast and middle USA tour as  the warm up band for Tesla and the Scorpions.... Next Feb. they will be doing the East Coast of the US...

Now how weird is that??

So it looks like the ELP reunion isn't going to be for awhile.... So sad... I'm so sad!!!

Tour information for the Keith Emerson Band as warm up to Tesla and the Scorpions... it really is sad.  I hope the Scorpions audience can handle some revamped ELP songs...

Maybe not Land... but David Gilmour is playing in Sept. at Fender's 50th bash at Wembley... wonder what he'll play....

King Crimson could be around soon.. I understand that Tony Levin is playing with them again.

Thank you very much those were very helpful.  It will be good to see Keith again. haven't seen him play since 1997 tour with Jethro Tull.   Hope he is recovering well.  It is a long way from 1973 but I would go anywhere to see that man play piano. Could care less what the rest of the show sounds like.

So Keith played his first show in Seattle last night... with Tesla and the Scorpions.  He only gets 45 minutes at the beginning... which is alright with me, means we can leave right afterwards...

From someone who attended... setlist is as follows...

Hoedown
Living Sin
Bitches Crystal
Tarkus
Fanfare

We all tried taking lessons from Carl the Man... but he's too hyper for us to keep up with...

I spent the weekend with Keith and band.... what a great weekend.  I'll review this for you later... right now I'll just put this in...
