Hey kiffa May you please clarify who the band were, Tony and Andy obviously & I imagine Robert and Bernard? I'm wondering, was anyone else playing on stage with them? Robert was with them, yes. Sadly, Bernard (even though he played on the 'Living In Fear' album) had already passed away by the time the tour got going. My memory for things like this is horrible, I'm afraid, but Wikipedia says that the tour began with Guy Pratt on bass and at some point Manny Yanes took over. If the info at duranduran.fandom.com/wiki/The_Power_Station_-_(1996)_-_The_Living_In_Fear_Tour is correct, Boston was the next to last date on the tour. That points to the likelihood of Manny Yanes, although I cannot confirm this. Wikipedia also says that Andy's frequent collaborator Luke Morley joined the tour as a second guitarist. Listening to the recording, I hear what sounds like a small brass section-- although no brass players are listed on the above linked page, so I'm not even sure if they were really there, or whether their parts were on tape. My suspicion is for the latter. I was working for Tower Records at the time, and a co-worker who had some music industry connections was also at the show, and that's how I managed to get backstage afterward (thanks J.M.!). Robert had supposedly left the building as soon as the show ended, but I got to meet Andy and Tony briefly (I got a picture with Tony too and I have the print somewhere, but I've never digitized it). I wasn't expecting this and scrambled for something to say to Andy, and I thought that it might be better if it wasn't Duran Duran-related. So I told him that I loved his "Thunder" album and still listened to it a lot. He seemed appreciative of that, and told me that he was (or soon would be) working on another album. I don't think that ever materialized, though.

If I'm not mistaken that album he was referring to was his 3rd solo album - I think it was entitled Nobody's Business which was finished but not released.
