I believe this was their final performance together. Greg commented shortly after this that he had a hard time listening to the monitors and thought it would not be a good show. It came out fine.
Not long after this their reunion tour was cancelled. Greg made a comment that there would be no more tours. I thought it odd at the time.
After his passing it was revealed he had fought cancer for the last few years and that was why I felt the tour was cancelled.
He , with Palmer an Emerson, were Giants in the prog world. He really was a good bassist, not flashy but played what the song needed and was tastily done. It is a shame he never finished his last two albums, one of new material and another a Christmas album, but the body of work he left us was amazing. Emerson, Lake and Powell was my favorite.
