Alan is the original grumpy old man of rock. He can be.. let's say 
'dificult' tho there IS a way to handle him. There are far worse than 
him tho.

btw, I was out with Wishbone Ash again last weekend, they are all on 
IEM`s now, a system called HearBack, each has his own little digital 
mixer, all connected together by cat5.  The system seems to work well, 
tho I`ve noticed that a lot of bands, once they get used to in ears, 
play far louder on stage than before. WA certainly do!
