You have semi-solved a mystery for me. I saw you and Peter Combe in Newcastle - I recall the wait for Peter, but had no idea what the hold-up was. Napping upstairs, aha! I ran into him backstage on my way back from the toilets (you're right, that venue isn't well equipped for live gigs). He looked a bit out of it, but at the time I had attributed that to the fact that he had aged 18 years or so since I'd last seen him - and that he was concerned about his missing keyboard player. That was the extra delay... I was sent on a mission to find him, but the description of Phil didn't help me enough to spot him amongst all the punters. I ended up manning the CD stall while the lady normally manning the stall went to find Phil, who was outside, chatting with a bunch of smokers. Gig saved! Haha!
