HW: Bizaare gig experiences

[eddie jobson]

Bit boring this one, but the only incident I can think of off of the top of
my head. On the 1982 tour we traveled down to Tunbridge Wells in thick snow,
went into a pub before the gig and Harvey and Martin Griffin were on the
table next to us. We had only been there a few minutes when for a reason
that escapes me, Martin had an argument with the Bar Manager where he
eventually stormed out of the pub calling it a 'shabby provincial pub' and
later signed our programs with the same comment.

My twopenneth.
