When King Crimson mastermind Robert Fripp leaked curious details of BEAT in spring 2024, more than a few eyebrows were raised. The project celebrates King Crimson’s 80s albums Discipline (1981), Beat (1982) and Three Of A Perfect Pair (1984). It found Adrian Belew and Tony Levin reconnecting for a very special North American tour, with guitar god Steve Vai and Tool drummer Danny Carey. Prog caught up with Belew and Levin before just before the quartet gathered for their first rehearsal.
