Yeah, that quote made me laugh too
Also the bit where he knew he should have been on stage with the band but just didn't bother - "By rights I really should have phoned" duh...
It does sound like he was there with Peter in Munich when that bad acid was taken. It's not 100% clear, and maybe he wasn't clear on it anyway in his mind - but it's another person's angle we can put with the other versions of the story!
Glad you guys enjoyed it - I was really happy to find it
