And Phil was supposed to make it there in time, at least he stated so in an interview. Can't remember the full details, but they either got stuck in traffic and couldn't make to the plance in time or the plance couldn't take off for some reason. It was one of those two, but he was supposed to actually leave the plane and jump right on stage in Calgary that night.
