King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man Live Performance in Mexico City
In July 2017, when King Crimson performed “21st Century Schizoid Man” live at the Teatro Metropólitan in Mexico City, they were riding the wave of renewed creativity and recognition. This period marked a significant revival for the band, as they had reformed in 2013 and were busy touring with a lineup that showcased their remarkable evolution. Just prior to this live recording, they released the album *Radical Action to Unseat the Hold of Monkey Mind* in 2016, which captured the experimental prowess they’ve always been known for. The live shows during this time were particularly electric, blending intricate musical arrangements with a fierce energy that made every performance feel unique. It’s fascinating how this group's longevity and willingness to push boundaries resonate with audiences decades after their inception. Performing a classic like "21st Century Schizoid Man" live not only pays homage to their roots but also demonstrates their continuing relevance in progressive rock.
