I have seen ELP 8 times, once in 1977 and the rest in the 90's. Always an amazing show. It's hard for me to watch this performance; it is so bad and doesn't sound anything like them. what am I missing here?

@pyrotect Hey, that L100 Hammond is mine... and it was *on wheels* to make it easier to get out there on-stage when the moment came. It actually made it more difficult for Emo to tip over! YOU try tipping an L100 - wheels or no wheels - put the vid on YouTube and let US take the piss, eh?..!!!! (..;c)

Someone talks about the cover of Trilogy below.  I think ELP was great but I always hated that album cover.

@ jaycee1958  Is that you we hear singing along?

@pyrotect Hello pyrotect, I understand you perfectly but what do you expect to see? Anyway I think you´re very extremist. It was a good show and better as the show went on (sound /perfoming).

Sorry but they dón´t picture like the cover of Trilogy, and is very lucky all the people that coul see them like you and I.

I travelled from Spain with all my family (wife, son and daughter) and two friends. At the moment of see ELP I was really exhausted but was one of the great illusions of my life.

@hazuki2k Hello, I was there too.

I have a copy of the CD the sound is raw an fantastic, exactly what we see there. I buy one of the forst copies and I know Keith was doing a new mix the 26th, I expect Greg sayin ``feedback´´hast no t been removed and not excesively produced. The Argent and Asia CD are fastastic as well.

I think to buy Uriah heep, wishbone ash and focus.

Greeting from the sunny Spain

Is the first concert I´ve been I have a decent tape.

I have waited 35 years plus to see this trio live,and yes they are in their sixties but who gives a fuck i travelled down from Glasgow just to see this and I thought it was the highlight of my weekend.

I think age is the main thing,I was surprised how well Lake sang though,it did seem like they were going through the motions much like the last time they played together. Of the three Palmer seems to be the one who has been able to keep his chops up.

@pyrotect I agree with you pyrotect I think this was there worst concert ever, they made a lot of mistakes, like you I too am an ELP FAN. I also think there hearts were not in it. I think they were just going through the motions, they didnt look happy. and i think age had something to do with it, I do think Carl did the best job playing.
