After the show singer Deerfrance got abducted by some morons, who intended to rape her. From an interview with Pop Insider:
"We were in Houston, Texas and had finished our show and were back at our hotels[. I took off towards the fast food place down the road around 3 a.m. in fuck-me-heels, a leather jacket, latex pants, and an orange crew cut. In 1979. A pickup truck slowed down long enough to pull me in and drove off into a field. Thanks to my stiletto heels I broke the window and attacked my attacker and got free. When I returned back to the hotel the guys were so cool. The police came and they defended and supported me and we got out of town without me being arrested. The song was a healing part of the tour for me, and John put beautiful music to it. John was very open to input and we all contributed to songs and covers, with John at the helm and editing table. Really, there was never a need for anyone but John, him being so very capable. He did write a song for me to sing, Only Time Will Tell."
