Make your own flag —
Björk live in Shanghai 2008

Cover art For once my timing seems to have been right on. It appears that I saw the first and last Björk concert ever to happen in mainland China. By now, most everyone knows why I say "last," and I'll get to my perspective on that in due time. I was living and working in Beijing, but this concert was a special enough occasion that I booked a weekend trip to Shanghai and pulled in some favors to get a good seat.  » Read more

A Hot Date with King Crimson —
Live at the Fillmore 2000

Cover art It's been 31 years since the Crimson King appeared at the legendary Fillmore in San Francisco. In December 1969, the original quartet was at the end of their first American tour, tired, spent, and just downright frustrated. The group was on a triple bill with both the Nice (led by Keith Emerson) and the Chambers Brothers (an R&B vocal group), which typified the mixture of musical styles in a Bill Graham venue for the day. Fast forward to the present and although Robert Fripp and his new quartet have adopted many guises, none are more brutal than the projekctized version, which has been successfully redefined for the new millennium.  » Read more

Returning to the Well of Creativity —
Yes Live in San Luis Obispo 1996

Cover art By now most of you in the progressive rock community have heard about the reunion of the classic Yes line-up. In an attempt to revitalize interest in the band, three live shows were played and recorded in San Luis Obispo in early March to a combination of die-hard fans, band family, and associates. You may ask yourself what this event has to do with the state of progressive rock in 1996. In my opinion: plenty! They came, they saw, they played complex music and it was damn good.  » Read more

The Christian Vander Trio Live in Montreal —
July 6th, 1995

Cover art During the Montreal International Jazz Festival we had the pleasure to hear the Christian Vander Trio. Like many North American Magma amateurs, I had never seen Vander playing live before, so this was a real treat on its own. The concert was outdoors, at 10:00 pm, on one of the numerous stages of the Jazz Fest.  » Read more

Return of the King —
King Crimson in San Francisco 1995

Cover art Man, was it hot! Saturday, the 24th of June was the hottest day of 1995 in San Francisco. As the temperature outside soared to 100 degrees, a group of us eagerly awaited outside the Warfield Theater for what, to us anyway, was the concert event of the year. It had been just over 11 years since King Crimson last performed in the Bay Area. Saturday night was the first of three consecutive sold-out performances at the Warfield. Initially, I pondered which of three shows to attend. Would the sound or performance be better the second or third night as the band and crew got used to the venue? Should I wait and go Sunday or Monday instead of Saturday? I wonder... No, it had to be the first show. I had to be there for the return of the King.  » Read more
