Sometimes it's impossible to guess what Peter's going to play next! He sure goes
out of his way to pick a song that hasn't been requested at the QEH in 1991.

Someone had the novel idea of getting an artist to interview another. Edward
Ka-Spel singer of the Legendary Pink Dots interviews Peter hammill but seems
almost too interested the recording of Gog/Magog for Peter's tastes. BTW those
of you who don't know the Legendary Pink Dots, they are well worth the listen.
They write beautiful and yet very frightful music. Check out their 40+ CD
catalogue. Peter also performs live in studio.
