The whole show was just great. The music was awesome of course. They are such great Musicians. Also, their personal stories were really interesting & informative. The whole tribute to our fallen heroes was well done. They would have been proud.
If you're a fan of UK you can't afford to miss this show. I'm actually thinking a traveling to one cities on the tour. I saw them in 78' and I enjoyed this almost as much as that one. If you're a music fan and you apreciate musicans, take a chance, see this show!
This was a very unheralded event-UK playing their first show in 33 years. Advertising? None. Anticipation among the faithful? High. What would Jobson, Wetton and Bozzio bring to the stage? Previous 'almost' reunion shows gave a hint of what to expect. But this show, the second of the tour, was quite uneven. It really felt like the third night of rehearsals for a big tour. The major problem was the failure of Eddie Jobson's keyboards. During one of the several gear failures, Jobson admitted that his two keyboards were running four laptops. So that means there were exactly zero, repeat, zero synths onstage. Latency ( a note sounding long after a key is hit) and unexpected swells and drops in volumes, both traditional problems with running a laptop rig were embarrassingly in plentiful evidence. The duet version of Fallen Angel by King Crimson was particularly affected. Wetton was in fine vocal form ( it is early in the tour) and was able to hit many of the higher register notes that he can miss in other projects (see: Asia) He was also solid on bass, but seemed confused at times by the keyboard failures. Bozzio, a madman under even calm circumstances, was a frenzy of activity and energy, perhaps reacting to the perceived unevenness of the set. By the end, they hit their groove. Smoke and rosin flew off Eddie's bow as they grew in familiarity into the unit they once were. Freed of keyboard constraints, the violin, bass and drums trio lit up the sky. But only for ten minutes. Message to Jobson: bring a real keyboard rig. Although all original sounds were meticulously sampled, the results were not consistent. At least have some rack mounted gear backstage. A large vintage keyboard or two is also a good idea. Your fans deserve better. Side note: the next show is canceled. Gear problems being solved hopefully.
The place was excellent. The concert was the best ever seen. Eddie Jobson and Terry Bozzio are among the best & John Wetton is a legend. Is almost like seing Emerson, Lake & Palmer.
terrific venue, love the place. waiting for this band to play again for over thirty years, quite an exciting night
This show to say the least was amazing. My main interest in this show was Terry Bozzio but the whole band was fantastic. Bozzio just simply amazed me with his incredible playing. I truly believe he is the best drummer ever and i have seen many greats over the years. If you have the chance to see this show do it.
Great playing, sound man needs to learn to balance instruments better, drums were lost in some songs and keyboards too loud and sometimes main parts of the keyboards were lost in the mix..But the band played very well, will go see them again if they come around..recommend this show.
Excellent concert, especially after not hearing anything from them for over 30 years! All 3 of these musicians are consummate professionals. Very good choice of songs. Showcase Live was an excellent venue for this event. Never been here before but was impressed!
I could write an essay. Suffice to say, it was a fantastic show. While a long time fan of Eddie and John (both of whom's playing was spot on, with incredible violin work from Eddie), I wasn't familiar with how accomplished a musician/drummer Terry Bozzio was. I was amazed! What a talent. I rate him as the best drummer in "progressive" rock.
Saw last year's UK tour and previous year's UKZ. All awesome, but this year's with Terry B blew me away even more. The man (age 61!) is an absolute beast. His solo a typical, thoughtful Bozzio solo, not just "I'm fast and flashy". Jobson in good form, violin noise session mercifully short, other violin work definitely highlight. Wetton's voice strong, bass work strong and interesting, not phoned in. Evening suffered from some keyboard tech problems, but still an awesome show.
