It implies a subservient role, I think. A secondary role.

This is getting ridiculous. We put the question to Mr Peter "Gryphon" Green. A man who has worked with Split Enz/CH/everything........ for some 30 years. Gryphon has stated Peter Jones was a band member. And I'd say that Gryphon would be closer to the band and know better than us. But rather than backing down graciously your trying to put your own slant onsomething Neil said. Could it be that your just taking Neil's words a bit to literally.

And like Gryphon said, just like with Tim at the farewell show CH had Peter get up on stage. So clearly Nick, Mark, Neil and even Paul wanted Peter to be part of what was at the time the final chapter of their career.
