Sadly, it's not that he wasn't allowed to play, but that he wasn't capable of playing, due to his condition. At least he came out and gave his all on the encore...
Yes, absolutely, he IS a top guy. Without his efforts, there likely would never have been a reunion. I'm absolutely not trying to start a war of words with you here, but watching him play on the encore each of the five nights in London, it was obvious he hadn't the energy to have played even one show full on. I hate that as much as anyone who was there, and can only hope that he'll be able to play the rumoured US dates to come next year.
someone fire that guitarist, oh dear. ropey as fuck!

@TeleCustom72 I believe the guitarist is Mick Ralphs!

@fanofprotopic: he's fallen a LONG way if thats the case - used to be a cracking guitarist did Mick Ralphs.
