Drummer extraordinaire Bill Bruford (who has played with groups as Yes, King Crimson and Genesis) will not play live gigs anymore. The news is published on Bruford's own website http://www.billbruford.com/news.asp

"After 41 years of moving the percussive pulse in music and raising people's pulses in general, Bill Bruford has announced his retirement from public performance, effective from January 1st 2009.
Bill's contribution to music is celebrated by the release of two new anthologies covering his solo career."

Oh no, I never got the opportunity to see him live on stage! Let's hope Bill will change his mind some day.
