I think the info's on the website. I don't know who the drummer is but the keyboardist is quite new, a guy called Dave Bainbridge who played in some prog groups.

Yes! I'll be honest, I didn't like the choice of keyboard he used throughout the tour. His imitation of the mellotron sound was pale by comparison to the original. It was difficult to judge his abilities as a keyboard player because of that fact.. He was a great guy though, all smiles and enthusiasm, he really set a good vibe
