Seattle didn’t happen last night for Sasha and John Digweed, thanks to the bęte noire of travelers’ woes – food poisoning and flight delays.
Whilst John Digweed sat paralyzed in a hotel bathroom in Seattle a few hours before the gig, simultaneously Sasha was pacing a departure lounge in Heathrow watching his flight get pushed back and back.
It was a classic double dose of globetrotting helplessness and for everyone involved it was a case of hope and pray.
In Seattle, John Digweed’s situation was so severe, he had no choice but to request the hotel call a doctor.
“They said one wasn’t available, and they asked if I wanted a paramedic,” explains John.
“I couldn’t move, I couldn’t go anywhere, so I said ‘yes’, and the next minute five firefighters turned up.
“Somebody must have told them my sphincter was on fire.”
One of the firefighters turned out to be a paramedic, and after taking John’s blood pressure suggested he call an ambulance to take him to hospital.
But John didn’t want to leave the comfort of his hotel bathroom stool.
OMG...poor John Digweed but the "my sphincter was on fire" made me lol!
