Tickets on sale today for June 9 show at the Saenger. Saw them in Dallas about a year ago and it was insane. Can't wait for this one.

What's their lineup these days?

King Crimson has to be the band with the most recognizable name yet no one knows any of their songs.

Saw them a few years ago. The amount of crazy musical things going on all at once on stage is difficult to keep track of.

The lineup for this year’s King Crimson tour includes mastermind Robert Fripp, bassist Tony Levin, multi-instrumentalist Jakko Jakszyk, saxophonist Mel Collins, drummers Gavin Harrison, Pat Mastelotto and Jeremy Stacey as well as multi-instrumentalist Bill Rieflin.


I saw this lineup in 2017..if you've never seen them it's worth it..amazingly talented. I'll go see them again when they pare down the drummers..

Just IMO, I'm not a big fan of the 3 drummer lineup..it seems to overwhelm Fripp, Collins, and Levin too much..

Last time I saw them they had three drummers at the front of the stage. Mel Collins, from the original lineup was there. Tony Levin was the reason I went as he never disappoints. He is in the picture they sent for the tour so I assume he is on board. Fripp is the only constant and he was amazing. The singer was in a KC cover band with a few former KC members and does a good job on Wetton's songs. Amazing guys.

KC and Pineapple Thief appear to be the only ways to see Gavin Harrison live these days. He is worth the price of admission, though I wish they'd just have him as the only drummer.

So many shows/tours cancelled, I guess we can forget pretty much anything until 2021, but some of these idiots are talking about the rest of 2021 as well, which should be considered crazy talk!

Haven't seen King Crimson since the 90's Thrak tour.
I have spent a small fortune on their super deluxe box sets for their 70's albums. I must have over 50+ soundboard live show recordings...
