Venue: Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall Location: Portland, Oregon, United States Date: August 8, 2001

In 2001, when King Crimson delivered their electrifying performance of "Red" in San Diego, they were amidst a dynamic chapter in their career. Just a year prior, in 2000, the band released the album *The Construkction of Light*, which encapsulated their progressive rock evolution with a modern touch. This album, showcasing their foray into more experimental realms, included tracks that blended intricate musical arrangements with a distinctive edge. Interestingly, it marked a period where they welcomed new life into their classic sound, bridging generations of fans. The band's collaboration with Tool during this tour also highlighted their ongoing influence in the rock genre, showcasing how the intricate musicianship of King Crimson resonated with a new wave of artists. It’s a testament to their enduring legacy—who'd have thought a band formed in the late '60s would still be setting stages ablaze over three decades later?
