    I wonder how many in the rather bemused audience realised they were seeing a recreation of one of rock music's most iconic moments. Chapeau! to all involved

    Well, looking at this again, I have to thank our British brothers and sisters for giving so much support to The Captain and the Magic Band, because they were pretty much unknown in the US except for San Fran and L.A. They were living off their moms for many years, and of course their moms aren't gonna let 'em starve.
