  Good Times May 7, 2011
Written by joshemery
This show was a blast. The band was full of energy and clearly enjoying themselves. The story I heard at the time was that Fripp wanted Bruford to stay off the cymbals. I was very close to the stage and at some point Bruford goes from one side of his kit to the other hitting a lot of cymbals and he keeps hitting them. It appears as if he is intentionally avoiding looking at Fripp. Fripp stops playing, dropping his hand from the guitar looking at Bruford with a frown kind of waving his hand a little like he was hoping to get Bruford’s attention at which point Bruford finally stops hitting the cymbals, looks at Fripp with a huge grin on his face and appears to bark at Fripp. At this Fripp laughs heartily as does Bruford and they all get back to tearing up the place. That’s how I remember it and I’ve always wondered if my take on what went on between Fripp and Bruford was anywhere near what they thought took place.
