I wish I could. As everyone knows Robert Fripp
is the leader of the band. I’ve always thought
that was the way it should be. I respect that,
and try to respect Robert’s wishes in most
everything that King Crimson does. Right now,
he doesn’t want to tour, he doesn’t want to
play or write any new material. It’s not that
he’s angry with anybody, it’s just where he is
in his life right now. It’s not on his mind to do
that—he has other things. So, it’s down to

waiting for Robert to say he’s ready to play
some more shows, or write some more songs.
What I do know about him is that when he’s
ready he’ll say so. When it does happen, I
hope that I’m still there!
