The band AND the audience were fantastic. Two standing ovations were given during the concert (after the obviously showcase piece, The Sheltering Sky, and then after Elephant Talk.) Standing ovation after the final piece, then, of course, standing ovations AND lots of dancing in the aisles and by the stage during the two encore pieces (Red and Thela Hun Ginjeet.) By the way, "Thela Hun Ginjeet" is "The Jungle Heat" scrambled. Never knew that for 45 years!

FIRST SOME CONTEXT: I have been attending concerts since 1969 at age 14. I have seen all of the prog-rock giants including 1974’s King Crimson and also the final formation of King Crimson, ECM Records jazz greats, fusion groups like John McLaughlin & The Fourth Dimension, and the infamous 1974 Zappa & The Mothers. Again, not bragging, giving you context! I saw supergroup BEAT in Indianapolis 10/30. The band and the audience were in top form! BEAT is an amazing experience, as good and perhaps even better than King Crimson. There was a lot of joy on the stage and in the gallery.
