The Tithe Barn, Bishop's
Cleeve, Gloucestershire Sunday, 17th January 2016 This was the night that Colin returned
to the stage for the second half to find that his beloved Martin guitar had
taken a backward somersault (with tuck) from off its stand, taking the neck
violently away from the body and raising the action by some two inches.
Colin's reaction was somewhat similar (without the tuck) and the rest of the
night was spent with the guit/voc section of the band staring blindly into
space wondering how he was going to complete the rest of the tour with only
one guitar. |
