Just came here to post that, Ned.

A tough read at points. Obviously something happened on the flight back, but I feel knowing any more than that won't help.

Is there a source for the full live version of "Can't Find Water"?
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Saturday, 20 September 2014 23:30 (nine years ago) link
Here's the Radio NZ segement; can d/l as an mp3 or ogg.

Some of the people who'd been playing/jamming with Peter have been putting some tracks online, e.g.

Oh, that track via Danny was linked in the Ian Henderson blog post.

Very curious about what happened on that flight. Not sure why this wasn't included in that article. Sort of irresponsible.

There could be a variety of reasons. Possibly having to do with NZ law?
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 22 September 2014 02:05 (nine years ago) link
True Ned. But I would love to know those reasons. That article is a big tease.

Saw the Axemen on the weekend; they covered "Point That Thing..." as a tribute to Peter.
For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure "Buddy" is the most-covered Flying Nun song post-2000 - probably seen a dozen different bands cover it live over the years, from garage rock to country to electroclash to goth &c&c.
