The Beast Is Back, Almost

Fanboy alert: semi-adolescent post to follow. You have been warned.

Yowza! Yowza! Yowza! Yowza! Yowza! Yowza! Yowza! Yowza!

OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! (as they say, so I'm told.) 

The greatest band in the known universe is coming back into active service, with a SEVEN man line-up. THREE drummers! The Mighty Crim stirs once more!

Robert Fripp posted his 6 September diary today, so it couldn't be more official. And it's confirmed all over DGM, and other places on the net.

Can't imagine three drummers in the mix but, hey, who could have imagined the double trio? Line-up: Bill Rieflin, Gavin Harrison, Pat Mastellotto, Tony Levin, Mel Collins, Jakko Jakszyk and the Frippster himself.

It seems we've got a year to wait, so some patience will be required - and prayers for a studio album since there's no way they're going to play this Far Place (but, Robert, we're not that far off Japan!)

Blimey! Which I'll say again: Bliiimey!
