Is BEAT at Virgin Hotels Worth It? The King Crimson Night, Honestly

BEAT brings the music of King Crimson to The Theater at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, doors 7:30 p.m. Adrian Belew (guitar, vocals) and Tony Levin (bass, Chapman Stick) are the actual Crimson alumni; Steve Vai (guitar) and Terry Bozzio (drums) complete the quartet. The lineup has changed since the 2024 tour: Bozzio, best known for his Frank Zappa years, replaces founding BEAT drummer Danny Carey, who is tied up with Tool. Belew has said the fall run adds 1990s Crimson material to the 1980s "Discipline" era songs the project was formed around.

Las Vegas is the fourth stop of a 40-date run that opens October 9 in Santa Cruz and closes December 3 in Riverside, after San Diego and before Phoenix. It's a Tuesday in a market that lives on weekends, which makes flights and rooms cheap and the 4,600-capacity room quieter. The venue publishes doors only; the one listing that shows a time repeats 7:30, so the actual curtain is unconfirmed. Some trade coverage called this a "final" BEAT tour and other outlets didn't, so don't buy on that basis. No face price is published; the bag rule is one small personal item; self-parking is free; the house admits children from 4 on a full-price ticket.

It's a repertory show of other people's catalog, played by four virtuosos: Vai and Bozzio fans get almost none of their own material. The October calendar lists the rest of the month.

Insider tipThe Theater's mezzanine center is the seat for this band: the Levin-Bozzio interplay is a stereo event, and the floor near the stage collapses it into one guitar. Tuesday pricing means the mezzanine rarely sells out.
