I know it's not the current tour, but I'm listening to 2005 stuff these days.

what a surprise when I heard the band's introduction form Mark on 31.05.2005 at RAH :

usual quotes : "Gut will fixed your watch, multi-instrumentalist Richard, Danny from DS days, etc..."

BUT :
" another multi-instrumentalist, he plays guitar, he plays pedal steel guitar, and he brought his largest intsrument with him : GLENN WORF !"  :o ???

I had to listen again, but I clearly heard these words. Never heard that before.
did I misunderstand someting ? Was he talking about someone else ?
Does Glenn play guitar and pedal steel ?
Has someone heard this on another gig ?

I don't recall this but I generally don't listen to the band intro's.  Interesting info though.

Or maybe Mark mixed it up with Richard's description. ;)

Absolutely, the day before  30th May 2005, Mark introduced Glenn as "another multi instrumentalist , pedal steel guitar player, guitar player, KEYBOARD PLAYER!!,and the best bass player on earth , brings his large instruments to England..Glenn Worf"


so he is a keyboard player as well, otherwise you wouldn't be a multi instrumentalist   ;D

I recall that in certains shows that MK introduced Glenn Worf, I think that it was in Nashville, telling that he (Glenn) arrived to Nashville playing his steel guitar but after meeting Paul Franklin he changed to the bass.

I could play Jingle Bells on a Bontempi keyboard when I was about 6 or 7 and I can play the triangle part to the live version of OES!  Does that mean I'm a multi-instumentalist too? :think
