Here is matt's update diary on the rehearsals, b4 the first show tonite:

Diary 2. LA 30th June 2002
Even though I was only at rehearsals to photograph the proceedings I really 
feel drained. God knows how it must have felt to those in the band. Yesterday 
in particular was difficult, today things eased a bit.
Pino, being the guy he is, slipped into his groove early on and is 
undoubtedly a good choice. It felt strange early on but the magic in the 
songs is still there. Pete and Roger are still there. Zak and Rabbit are 
still there. 
It's difficult to describe my feelings and I hoped that I could upload some 
photos tonight from the last two days but, for some reason, I'm having a 
problem getting them onto the server. Nothing's going right!
Have had loads of emails from people. Thanks. Sorry if they don't get 
answered but it's been an incredibly busy couple of days leading up to 
tomorrow nights show.
I'll try and get some shots up in the morning before I leave for the gig. 
If you're going along tomorrow I hope you're able to enjoy it. It IS good to 
hear the music played. I've heard it over the past two days and it has helped 
me, particularly today.
