I was surprised to see an article yesterday talking about a tour called Welcome Back My Friends – The Return Of Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Considering that Keith Emerson and Greg Lake have been dead for about six years, I dreaded reading further on how they were planning to pull this off, hoping beyond hope that it would not be with the use of holograms. Thankfully, despite saying that the hologram option was explored, this was abandoned in favor of using past video footage. This still seems a little hokey to me, though, particularly for an entire show as opposed to a song or two, but to each their own.
