NEARFEST PRESS RELEASE
January 13, 2006

KEITH EMERSON TO HEADLINER NEARFEST 2006

We are very honored to announce that progressive keyboard maestro
Keith Emerson will be appearing as the Sunday headliner for NEARfest
2006 with his superb backing band (Dave Kilminster on guitar and
vocals, Pete Riley on drums, Phil Williams on bass). Audiences in
the USA, Japan, and all over Europe have thrilled to the passion,
fire, and musical virtuosity of the Keith Emerson Band, which
performed powerful versions of classic ELP and Nice material along
with Emerson solo and soundtrack pieces arranged for the full band,
and new songs as well. Armed with his full arsenal of vintage and
modern keyboards, including his custom modular Moog, Emerson is sure
to deliver an unforgettable NEARfest headline performance. Don't
miss this opportunity to see, hear and meet this living legend at
NEARfest 2006!
