Quote from P.J. Padilla (The Santanamigos Group on Facebook Jan 29, 2023): I flew to San Francisco to attend the Kabuki show. Contrary to lineup I now read online, I distinctly remember being surprised Chester Thompson (not 'CT') was on drums that night, my thought at the time being Lear was no longer in band. Perhaps, it was just a one-off night Lear couldn't be there.
