Originally posted by Chuck Murray View PostI was too young to see 'em when they were at the top of their game (early/mid '70's), and when I first saw them circa '77/'78 on the Works tour - right after they'd had to drop their private touring symphony orchestra due to the exorbitant costs - it was still a spectacle, and probably the greatest live show I've ever seen in terms of pure musicianship. With Rush, Deep Purple and Led Zep included BTW. Only wish I'd caught them on their KarnEvil9 tour before they went in hiatus for a few years … polyphonic sound, CP's rotating two-ton stainless steel kit, KE's piano solo with the piano turning end-over-end, rear video projections, etc. Stuff no one else had ever done before. You can see bits of some of the best of that tour from their '74 CalJam headlining performance live on ABC TV in front of 250,000 spectators. ELP knew how to do big, in a HUGE way. Then punk came in to cripple them and their fellow travelers, and after that, time and MTV put the kill shot on them and their kind. Hard to believe a band of their significance at the time - basically a prog band that sold out stadiums - has been all but forgotten in the present day.
Anyway Snives, here's a link to one of CP's recent tours, showing him with a relatively modest and restrained 5-plus minute solo, finishing up with his current bandmates in their version of "Fanfare for the Common Man", with the guitarist basically recreating KE's right-handed keyboard bits, whilst the bassist does a combination of Greg Lake's bassline and KE's rhythmic left hand!!

For 'dc, you've likely seen this before, but here's 3 minutes with sticks and snare only, plus tricks galore.

Re: UNH Wildcats 2019/2020 Ready to Rock and Roll!!
I was fortunate to have seen ELP on Thanksgiving day in 1973. I have also had the pleasure of seeing Carl Palmer a couple of times recently. Full of energy and very talented couple of fellows accompanying him. The Flying Monkey is a great place to see a show, especially up close on the main floor. Saw Lez Zeppelin there a couple of years ago. Yes, you read that right, all girls all zeppelin.
