Thread: tu:NER Plays ProgDay 2023!

    tu:NER Plays ProgDay 2023!

    tu:NER Plays ProgDay 2023!

    tu:NER is a musical trio comprised of TREY GUNN, MARKUS REUTER, and PAT MASTELOTTO, that celebrates the music of King Crimson’s Double Duo era (1998 to 2003), and the bands TU (Mastelotto and Gunn), KTU (Mastelotto, Gunn, and accordionist Kimmo Pohjonnen), TUNER (Mastelotto and Reuter), TUNISIA (Mastelotto and thereminist Pamelia Stickney), The ProjeKcts (featuring Gunn and Mastelotto as well as other KC members) and Stick Men (Mastelotto, Reuter and Tony Levin).

    All the different influences coming together through these three artists are notable for their endlessly creative approach to*music, and for the highly skilled musicianship of the players involved. Of course, the creative impulse of these three musos would never be fully satisfied by simply revisiting their back catalogues. Audiences will be treated to new pieces, as well as their characteristic improvisations or "instant compositions" where the three musicians listen to each other with their ears and souls, creating magic musical concoctions on the spot, away from the traditional rules of rock or jazz improvisation.

    Twenty years since the disbanding of the Double Duo, the spirit of the ProjeKcts is finally back on the road with Gunn, Reuter and Mastelotto.

    ————————

    Nice.

    Not to distract from the point of this thread, but is Tuner touring outside of this date?
    Please don't ask questions, just use google.

    Never let good music get in the way of making a profit.

    This is a great score! I remember seeing a one-off TU show at a hotel ballroom somewhere in LA about 20 years ago. Just two guys having fun and making one hell of a racket. They rocked my socks off. I would love to see them again, and a bonus with Reuter on-board.

    Great thanks!

    Sadly no frownland performances, but glad they are continuing to be a thing.

    Benton Harbor is only about 45 minutes from me. Might have to try to fit that one in if I am not already travelling to ProgDay by then.

    The venue is a craft brewery, and a pretty good one at that. I would recommend attending, if it's possible to do so.

    Yes, I have been there several times. All depends on when we leave for ProgDay.

    I noticed on the Progday page that tickets will only be available at Storybook.
    Is this the new way?

    That album cover looks like AI-generated artwork was used.

    Hey hey!

    I'll be at the Tu-Ner show tonight. Feel free to say "hi" if you see me. I'll be the slightly overweight, balding middle-aged guy wearing a black band t-shirt and drinking a beer.

    Wait a sec . . .
