Reorganizing of the King Crimson Releases pages is underway thanks to the herculean efforts of Jonathan who has been better "wikifying" the content, using templates, moving each track to a page of its own. If you'd like to help out let us.

After months of slowly converting content ETWiki goes live!
ET Web has become your new ETWiki. No more ET Webmaster controlling all the content here - most of it can be edited by anyone with an account, so please establish an account and login and participate in growing this site as a wiki should be: collectively!
First order of business: can you create a better ETWiki logo? Submit your suggestions here and we'll find a way to vote on them.
Enjoy the new site!

Ian Wallace passed away today following a tough battle with esophageal cancer. He was only 60. Our thoughts go out to his family, and especially to Margie at this difficult time.
Rest in peace Ian, and thank you for the all the music and good humor you brought to this world - we will miss you.

ET the Newsletter has closed. Its time is over.
In 1991, terribly frustrated Fripp-fan Toby Howard started ET to fill an information gap for fans -- questions like: Where and when was RF playing? What releases were coming out? What was the League Of Crafty Guitarists up to? And news began to circulate... hooray!
As time went on, however, Web interfaces to information began to appear, the most important of which, of course, was the fantastic DGM site. And there were other fan sites.
Posts to ET have declined, because enthusiasts prefer faster and more responsive interfaces than a weekly (if you're lucky!) moderated email newsletter.
The final edition of ET, Digest #1251, features a comment from Robert Fripp on the legacy of ET, as well as notes from ET staff Toby Howard, Mike Dickson and Dan Kirkdorffer.
The ET archives will remain (for now) at ET Web.
We at ET thank all the fans for their input and support over the years. You all helped to make ET what it was -- a groundbreaking independent Internet music fan resource.
Thanks to everyone!
Toby
