Emerson Lake and Palmer abandon orchestra tour due to costs
James Simon reports that Emerson Lake and Palmer will keep to a three man format after a comeback tour with a 70 piece orchestra proved financially unviable. The group spent about 250000 dollars weekly and limited travel to 150 miles daily, leading to early cancellation of orchestra-backed dates. Palmer says fans can see the Montreal concert film later this summer. The trio faces tougher economics in Britain, blamed on punk sentiment and lack of large venues. The band had returned to the U S after 22 years with a high profile revival timed with their supergroup era past. The lineup includes Keith Emerson Greg Lake and Carl Palmer, with a history tied to Nice and King Crimson.
