I was drawn to the stage by a force akin to that which propelled me to pen my hits "In the air tonight", and "Another day in paradise", which I'm sure you'll remember featured my good friend David Crosby.

I guess one could say, lan, that I'd not come across since I first jammed with Pete and the Genesis lads. To borrow a line from The Cars, Ashes were "just what I needed". I heartily encourage you all to get a long to a show and check them out for yourselves.
