John Wetton and Eddie Jobson had performed three concerts in Poland in November 2009, as documented by the live album Ultimate Zero Tour – Live, released in November 2010. Afterwards, both Jobson and Wetton talked about a possible UK reunion tour in the first months of 2010. The first tour was finally announced in February 2011, with a line-up consisting of Jobson, Wetton, Alex Machacek and Marco Minnemann. Three performances at Club Città in Tokyo in April 2011 were professionally recorded and filmed and subsequently released as a double CD, DVD and DVD + CD.
The set list noticeably included a performance of the song "Nevermore", which was played live for the first time in the band's history, and two King Crimson Wetton-era tunes.
