Hi Jackeen/Patrick

Nice to hear from you. Sorry the Verner family was unable to make it to one of the East Coast shows as planned - maybe next time. Regards to Angela - I think I met her at the hospital the day Paul died - she so resembled him that I did not even need an introduction to know who she was! I haven't seen Robbie McGrath since, oh, it must be since Self Aid in 1986. I believe he's been working with the Stones since then, God help them.

I miss PV all the time. Everytime I hear a great new record on the radio, I automatically think "Paul would have loved this!" I have been hanging out with Brendan Bowyer recently, and I know Paul would've got a kick out of that, too. I am, after all, the man who introduced Paul to Cliff Richard (in New Zealand).

Go well, go safely.

Philip

I remember Paul telling me about the time he was in the VIP lounge (don't ask) at Wembley stadium at a Prince concert.
He was gazing through the optimum positioned window down onto the stage.
He was standing alone, but he soon became aware of bodies on either side of him.
He slowly turned and peeked to the right "Jaysus, it's Eric Clapton" he thought, then he slowly turned to the left
"Jesus, it's George Michael". At that moment Prince let loose with a blistering solo to which Mr Clapton burst into laughter whilst George rubbed his chin and pronounced (think camp) "Mmmm, he's good isn't he"
