We where [sic] told we could return on a date of our choice. We went back on Wednesday 20th October. After the first set, we were invited by EMI to hospitality. In there we were gathered around in a circle talking to other members if the music industry. A man was going around the outside of us trying to get in.

He got behind me and under my arm I had a concert program and a book out of my box set, which had been given to me by Sony in the USA. He took the book from under my arm and swiftly left, I asked Paul who it was, and that he had taken my books Paul said dont worry it was Steve ORourke and that he would return them. A short while later Steve ORourke came up behind my seat and gave me back my book, along with some t-shirts, it wasnt until we got back to Pauls place that I saw that the members of Pink Floyd had signed the books.
