<p>&#34;Correct! I actually performed on The Totally Tubular Festival two years ago. I was playing solo that night and they asked me to come back, so I thought I'd do something a bit different and so I decided to reform my backing band from 1988, The Lost Toy People. The last show we played together was with Depeche Mode and OMD at the Rose Bowl for  the legendary 101 Concert and the other night in Phoenix was our first show in 38 years; how about that?&#34;</p>
