Sweet show. Special for me, because I've been a fan since Patience, having seen them manymany times...and I was one of those horns. I played trumpet (flugelhorn actually) on Trumpet Child, and I was the one who transcribed the horn parts from the record. I can say without bias that everybody was genuinely warm and kind throughout the whole thing - Linford in particular seemed thrilled to have horns and was happy with how they sounded, and Juicy and Mickey both went out of their way to express their appreciation too. And of course, it was a huge thrill for me to (gulp) play on stage with one of my favorite bands of all time.
...though it should be said I've seen em in better venues...
P.S. I gave Linford a copy of the horn parts, which I did on a computer
so they would look as good as possible. Dunno if they'll every line up
horns again, but they now have that possibility at least, so here's hoping.
