Exciting news: the official announcement of the “Beat Tour” in September. Adrian Belew, Steve Vai, Danny Carey and I will be playing the 80’s King Crimson repertoire – 44 shows across the U.S. and Canada. I’m guessing you may have already heard about it, but here it is from me. Soon, I’ll add the dates link and early tickets password – I’ll put that in the ‘comments’ to this post. There’s a long time before the tour, but it’s already exciting. t.l. #kingcrimson
An update re tour datres and advance ticket sales for the Beat Tour : the tour website, https://beat-tour.com/ is has the tour schedule, and Down Below them, a second list of shows with links to get advance tickets. For that you’ll need the password: BEATTOUR Sorry for the confusion. I’m off now to rehearse with Levin Brothers for our shows this week – we’re going to try a jazz version of Starless! #kingcrimson #beat

Here’s a little video of me talking about the upcoming Beat Tour, with some Elephant Talk trumpeting in the background! #kingcrimson #beat #beattour
Coming at you soon!
I’m sure many of you know of Rick Beato and his music blog. This May he’ll be inducted into the Rochester Music Hall of Fame, and so we’ll be, what… HOF Mates? Anyway, it was fun hooking up with him in L.A. to discuss the September Beat Tour. Watch the full interview here: https://youtu.be/AbQM09t5E2c #beat #beato #kingcrimson

Our Spring StickMen tour is about finished. We’ve had 19 wonderful shows, travelling from New York to Florida. And tomorrow we’ll head out on the Cruise to the Edge prog rock cruise, where we’ll play two more shows. But the More in ’24 Tour isn’t over… in July we’ll be playing in Minneapolis, Appleton, Milwaukee, Des Moines, Moline, Chicago, Benton Harbor, Detroit, Toronto, Syracuse, Pawling and Ardmore. I’ll post those dates and venues when it’s a bit closer, and hope to see some of you at the shows.
Was a great show tonight: Levin Brothers & California Guitar Trio, in Montreal’s Club Soda. (photo by my pal Kevin Parent.)
