Oh my, my deepest heartfelt thanks! What a fantastic interview! I really really appreciate that you took the time to record it! I will post it on the gear list page.

I don't know what it sounds like enough to know whether Paul omitted one of the synths from his list.

Are you sure this is 1995? I saw them at Ally Pally and it was the New Year's Eve between 96 and 97.

The played Chime at midnight and mixed it in with Big Ben.

(Of course, they may have played there in 1995 too.)
