2011-09-28 by Nick Hewitt
I'm fairly sure it was NEITHER!
If you look on Andy's website, at...http://www.planetmellotron.com/news.htm and scroll down to the April 2008 entry, he says..."Highlight? Walking into the theatre and seeing an M400 on stage!" - not 'His' or 'Gary's', but 'an' M400.

Not us... I thought Mr. Argent had his own machine - I heard a report that he used it at some regional gig, possibly even at a holiday camp (!), where no-one would give a shit. We supplied two M400s for the Strawbs' 40th anniversary bash, which is prob.what Martin's thinking of.

Assuming Argent doesn't own his own M400 (you'd think Martin would know), my guess is that they hired it from John Henrys, London's main hire co. I was lucky enough to have a guided tour around the place from John himself earlier this year - a full-on vintage kit drool-fest, although most of their gear (all types) is more current.
