UK

When the punk movement tried to kill prog, prog fought back in the only way it knew how: by consolidating its powers. UK were one of the many supergroups that formed in the late 1970s, roping together musicians who'd done time with such notable acts as King Crimson, Frank Zappa and Soft Machine. Though they only lasted a few years, the group evidently spawned a strong following: tickets for these reunion shows sold out well in advance, leading the promoters to schedule an extra date on June 21. The gigs feature the final trio line-up of singer/bassist John Wetton, keyboardist/violinist Eddie Jobson and drummer Terry Bozzio, who played on 1979's Danger Money and Night After Night albums.
