I was surfing YouTube while I probably should've been working and I started watching this:

Now, I'm no Fripp connoisseur and I've only really listened him in passing, but I find his thinking and approach fascinating. Anyway, was nerding out over his rig rundown and it turns out that he's using iPad apps too!

So, I thought I'd share for you guitar nerds out there.

    I used to be a big King Crimson fan when I was a teenager.

    So Robert Fripp uses an iPad on stage?

    Tres cool.

    iOS is the future.

    Thanks for the share,

    I've never really listened to King Crimson, but his work with Eno was amazing.

  • DaveypooDaveypoo

    Not really a King Crimson fan myself, but I appreciate their work. I just find it neat that the ease and simplicity of a tablet is even finding it's way to the greatest of musicians.

    a few years ago there was a photo from twitter or instagram of King Crimson using Thumbjam on stage..

    @Halftone

    Now that's cool.

    I've been seeing some legends jumping on the iOS platform.

    I'm glad I'm here.

    I really recommend listening to the three albums of the early 80s. Phenomenal stuff, especially "Discipline". Bill Bruford, Adrian Belew, Tony Levin, and Fripp. Me and some friends grew up with that, while others were digging Duran Duran and Culture Club...

    I was only a drummer then.

    Discipline blew my mind away.

    Awesome album.

    Duran do who??
    Yeah, myself also.

    I has on electro, very early hip hop, jazz and some far out shizzle.

    Was watching their performance of Frame By Frame on The Old Grey Whistle Test just yesterday - great tune. This isn't the same performance, but it's same tune:

    King Crimson has used M3000 on the road for years, for the their mellotrons.

  • JeffChasteenJeffChasteen

    I really dig Fripp’s playing when he is guesting with other artists:
    Eno
    Bowie
    Blondie
    Roches
    Darryl Hall
    etc.

  • ecouecou

    What’s the towel for? To keep the strings bright and new?

  • GravitasGravitas

    @ecou

    Yep.

    That was his guitar tech talking.
    He's keeping the strings clean for Fripp.

    The oils from his fingers would change
    the sound that Fripp is trying to achieve.

    Thanks! I did not watch the whole thing.

  • WillWill

    Nice!

    Psst, @sonosaurus just in case you don't already know...

  • GravitasGravitas

    @ecou

    The tech doesn't mention it.

    It's a performer tech thing.
    It's more a mark of respect.
    The performer trusts the tech and the
    tech shows respect by keeping it pristine.

    Something I know from having had techs in the past.

    I seem to remember the tech mentioning he sweats a lot.

  • GravitasGravitas

    @Daveypoo

    Yep.

    It's also why I don't have a tech these days.

    Many musician are known for playing new string every night to keep that bright sound of new strings.

    Others are known to keep them forever for that warm round tone with no bright ness.

  • philowerxphilowerx

    I’m huge fan of King Crimson and all things Fripp. Brilliant focused soul.

    Sweat on my strings I can handle any day. Blood now, that’s annoying, let me tell you.

    If it's my sweat I'm okay.

    Blood on my strings???
    That's a no no.

    That normally indicates bad technique.
    In one jam session back in 90's a guest
    percussionist was bleeding all over the congas.
    We all had to tell him to go home
    and relearn his technique and as
    congas are animal skin it took awhile
    for the blood to go.

    He went home and relearnt.

    That, and the Fripp/ENO My Life I The Bush of Ghosts... Superb.
