King Crimson, opening song off of their Discipline album

Probably one of my favorite KC songs!

Was gonna listen to some Tom Petty but now I'm in a King Crimson mood!

Adding Belew to King Crimson was an exciting turn for the band.

Or was it on Fridays that I first saw 'em? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZbOdgevxDE

I still wanna learn to play a Stick.

8. Ironic that your avatar is a crossed out elephant!
I met Adrian three times in my life twice in Champaign-Urbana and once in Tokyo. He is a great guy. I really love him.

Have you ever heard his wonderful accoustic album?

11. I saw Fripp in concert last December - will see Belew in March
Fripp was great - it was his league of Crafty Guitarists.

9. Adrian Belew was also stunt guitarist for Zappa.
Listen for him on Baby Snakes or Zappa in New York.
