Fripp's always been known for that. In 70's/80's he'd threaten to end a show over a camera or recorder. I don't know if he ever did. I figure that's the Fripp

Fripp's always been known for that. In 70's/80's he'd threaten to end a show over a camera or recorder. I don't know if he ever did. I figure that's the Fripp package. I have more respect for his desire-for-control than say Gail Zappa.

Fripp has certainly been known to walk off shows, to the consternation of his bandmates, but I don't know how frequent it truly is. I was at a show in SF in 2000 where everyone just assumed that he'd walked off (he'd issued a stern warning about photography and people kept snapping pics), but I learned later that the show ending with the band walking off followed by Adrian doing the encore solo (in this case Three of a Perfect Pair, on acoustic-electric guitar, which was much more amazing than it sounds) was normal. (setlists that are available online [0] for those shows are longer than I remember, which is interesting... my memory or someone else's is faulty... I remember Three of a Perfect Pair being the end) [0] https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/king-crimson/2000/the-fillmore-san-francisco-ca-6bd8860e.html https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/king-crimson/2000/the-fillmor...
