Hi everyone,
I share all of your feelings regarding possible disturbances at future KC/Tool concerts. I really don't want a bunch of metal-crazies ruining my KC experience. I'm 18 and love metal shows. I hate moshing and crowd-surfing. Frankly, I'm shocked that Fripp would tour with band with such a rowdy fanbase, given his adamance in playing for perfectly-behaved audiences. But if this tour opens up KC to more in my age-bracket, i think that is great. However, I am worried about getting tickets to see one of these shows. I would have liked to see Tool play next week in NYC. I heard this show got sold-out in 8 seconds. I wasn't so surprised. I think maybe some of us should be aware that Tool is very popular, and there are many more Tool fans than Crim-heads who will jump at the chance of seeing this amazing concert. Just my two-cents.
I want to add that I listened to the Larks' studio album a few days ago with headphones and don't think i have ever been more moved by a piece of music. Of course I've never seen that band play live, still I'd argue with the belief that Crim's studio releases could never equal their live performaces. I never realized how produced this album is, what with so many wild, insane sound-effects. There is truly nothing like KC in this world. Happy listening/concert-going, Ben
