At a Ian and Sylvia concert in the Gaslight in Washington D.C., 1966, Ian was noticeably of high blood alcohol content, and Sylvia seemed ticked off about something. These two facts may not have been related. You could feel the tension between them growing, and suddenly in the middle of a song, Sylvia stormed off the stage and out the front door of the little club. Ian sang toward the end of the song, winding down and finally petering out before the end. He hemmed and hawed uncomfortably and said "Sylvia's just gone out to...umm..errr...get her autoharp!!...and she'll be back soon." About a song and a half later, she returned, gave him kind of a glare and joined in the song.
