A luxury speedboat was available to help ferry the band to the VIP area, but Pete - wHO was late released from jail after a string of do drugs offences�- decided to arrange his possess travel.
Hunter added to Scotland�s Daily Record newspaper: �We were waiting for the official sauceboat when we saw this old guy with a rowing boat and decided to take that or else. It was more fun.
�Halfway to set ashore we lost an oar so the boat was drifting to the other side, but we didn�t really mind.
�Then we realized it had sprung a leak and water was coming in fast. We were about 30 metres from prop � it was actually cold and the water was selfsame deep.
"Pete kept our hopes up by singing ocean shanties."
