ELP Reunion in 2008?

progfetish — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 19:42:03 +0000

Tony Ortiz, the curator for the Official Emerson Lake & Palmer archive, has just posted the following from his MySpace blog:

Carl recently said in an interview that there was talk about an ELP reunion. And I know Greg said he had lunch with Keith today in London, I may be wrong, but I think this is the first time they have spoken since the break up in 1998. some other stuff that Greg was saying leads me to believe that there may be an ELP reunion, and if there was I’m guessing it would be next year. which would be the 35th Anniversary of the Brain Salad Surgery LP.

Dave Kilminster in November’s Guitar Player Magazine

progfetish — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 11:33:45 +0000

To Pink Floyd fans, Dave Kilminster is the luckiest guitarist alive. During the last two years, he has toured with Roger Waters, performing the majority of David Gilmourâ€™s guitar and vocal parts throughout presentations of The Dark Side of the Moon and other Pink Floyd classics. The tour saw Kilminster playing to sold-out arenas and stadiums worldwide, as well as Live Earth, which was broadcast to more than two billion people this past July.

Anil Prasad has interviewed Dave for Guitar Player Magazine during the California leg of the Roger Waters Tour. You can check out the article on the Guitar Player website, but to see the photos visit Dave’s official website. They generously scanned and posted the full article and graphics.

This photo of Keith Emerson (from Emerson, Lake & Palmer) accompanied an article in “Bike” magazine in the seventies. I was suitably impressed and decided then that a big Kawasaki was what I wanted some day.
