Pablo Cordero asistió al primer recital de grupo en México.
Como tenía un Royal Package asistió a la charla que dieron Davidd Singleton y Tony Levin.
Está en Facebook, así que extracto lo siguiente:


-The next box set will focus on expanded versions of the three studio albums featuring Mel Collins, as well as live recordings from the Islands era.
La próxima caja estará enfocada en los tres álbumes de estudio que incluyen a Mel Collins (In the Wake of Poseidon, Lizard e Islands) en versiones extendidas y con grabaciones en directo de la era Islands.


-Pat Mastelotto is re-recording drums for an upcoming rerelease of TCOL, which David referred to as "The ReconstruKction of Light".
Pat Mastelotto está regrabando la batería para una reedición de The ConstruKction of Light a la que David [Singleton] se refierió como The ReconstuKction of Light.


-There are no plans for a studio album that David knows of, but he pointed out the band has written roughly 50 minutes of new material. If they do go into the studio, it will not be before 2019 as they have a pretty tight schedule until then.
Que David [Singleton] sepa no hay planes para un álbum de estudio pero señalo que la banda ha escrito aproximadamente 50 minutos de nuevo material. Si fueran al estudio no sería antes de 2019 ya que tienen una agenda mu apretada hasta entonces.

Desde mi punto de vista es lo más relevante.

Copio y pego el texto entero, en inglés.

I had the opportunity to get the Royal Package treatment for the first concert in King Crimson's Mexico City residency (five dates).
We were welcomed by Robert, who thanked us for attending and introduced David Singleton by pointing out KC would not be here today without him. David in turn pointed out this is the first time Robert has come out to address the Royal Package crowd.
David's talk was extremely interesting, and I would like to start by sharing some news which I know will be of interest to you guys.
-The next box set will focus on expanded versions of the three studio albums featuring Mel Collins, as well as live recordings from the Islands era. (Kurt Hoffman, what's the weather like in Galapagos this time of the year?)
-Pat Mastelotto is re-recording drums for an upcoming rerelease of TCOL, which David referred to as "The ReconstruKction of Light".
-There are no plans for a studio album that David knows of, but he pointed out the band has written roughly 50 minutes of new material. If they do go into the studio, it will not be before 2019 as they have a pretty tight schedule until then.
David's talk started by addressing his view of DGM as an ethical record label operating in the business world and yet outside of it. He demonstrated his "sonic necromancy" rites by showing how he salvaged a live recording from 1974- it was a soundboard recording which, because of the soundman attempting to save tape by shutting off the recorder during applause, was lacking the intros and outros to all of the songs. Furthermore, since Wetton's bass and Fripp's guitar were so loud in live performance, they were mixed out of the PA, so the tape actually had only drums and vocals on it (David played "Lament" from this tape to demonstrate). By mixing this tape with a hissy bootleg from the same show, David was able to achieve an impressive-sounding result. We were then played an extremely beautiful recording of Orchestral soundscapes and told the story behind the recording.
Tony Levin then came out, a charming and commanding man. Some of the questions raised were whether he would ever release a second volume of the Crimson Chronicles photography book (he will when he has time to seriously devote himself to it, which may be never), whether there are plans for the Tony Levin Band to do something again (nope) and whether Jerry Marotta was ever considered to be a KC member (he did not recall). My question was whether, playing bass in KC, he found himself locking to one drummer at a time or to all three. He replied by saying "You are a bass player yourself, aren't you?" and then said his in-ear monitor system allows him to control the mix on the fly. When he needs to lock in to a specific drummer's pulse he will raise his volume, but he will often leave a balanced mix given that the drummers have arranged their parts so carefully.
Overall it was a special and lovingly presented event. My review of the show is forthcoming.

Para mi, que me importan un pito las cajotas, lo mas llamativo es ls regrabación de la bateria para Reconstraktion of Ligth.
Ciertamente, esto de las regrabaciones es alco qje me gusta poco. Si ya  una excesiva licencia en las mezclas del material original me puede plsntear slgunss dudas, la regrabación es algo que me echa para atras.
En todo caso, si el disco se enmarca en las reediciones del 40 aniversario, es de esperar que aparezca en el formsto habitual, lo que incluiria l grabación original.
En mi opinión es obligatorio que completen  la serie, al menos con TCOL y TPTB

Recordarás que el sonido de la batería -puramente electrónica- fue algo muy criticado cuando salió The ConstruKction of Light.
La caja que se menciona es la que llevo años esperando, igual que no esperaba ni deseaba la de THRAK.

Si, ya lo se, y seguramente el resultado será bueno, pero considero que los discos son como son y el resultado de una serie de decisiones (equivocadas o no)
No quiero ni pensar la via que abriria eso. Ahora volvemos a grabar el disco con nueva bateria. Ahora cambiando el cantante, luego modificando las guitarras, mas tarde sustituyendo uno o dos temas por otros que quedaron fuera y que ahora creen que pegarian mejor, etc.
Lo de las cajas, si no tuviera los discos del KCCC me resultarian muy atractivas, pero teniéndolos....no llego a tanto

Yo nunca he tenido "problemas" con este disco. Es fruto de su propio momento.
