This is a common misunderstanding as he is included in the official tour video, but he was only a special guest for the encores at that show in Sydney. I think he might have been supporting act in some shows in the States, but he never played with Bowie at Montreal or any other shows apart from Sydney. Source: listen to the band introduction from the Montreal recording and you’ll hear all the band members and no Charlie.

Ps. Thanks for a great website.

Charlie came out for the encore. I believe this was the first concert ever to use radio mics and they had only five channels so 5 mics. Every single show was different which you wouldn’t know unless you saw them all but it was due to theatrical issues, early shows just had numbers left out and about show 4 on there were delays as they tried to fix it often more than 10 minutes. I hear the set was meant for Stadiums and the Sydney Entertainment centre at the time was too small for the set. At this time he still had his apartment in Elizabeth Bay a Sydney suburb and I’m sure he stayed there. He lived in Sydney on and off. At the time there was no online at all and I and others slept outside the Entertainment Centre to get front row tickets for the first 2 concerts that went on sale. So worth it and he was so good and we didn’t see him again until he played 2 concerts at the same venue with the reality tour where I think he was at his best.
