The first of two nights in Oakland and the ever-popular and deeply groovacious Easy Money. There are some gorgeous micro-climates to encounter within what is always a hot track - Fripp’s opening solo is especially beguiling here. Amid the reed-biting atmospherics from Collins, Jakko’s guitar and vocalising emerge to take centre-stage in what sounds like a new fiery development within the track.

Jakko wrote new lyrics last year:
Rogue investors on the street
Born corrupt and indiscreet
Slowly turning up the heat
As you crucify both winners and losers
With the banks about to break

Rogue investors on the street
Born corrupt and indiscreet
Slowly turning up the heat
As you crucify both winners and losers
There's no guilt when you leave a scar

Cheat and lie and you'll get far
Getting fat on your lucky star
Just making easy money
