Q. Hi Oracle,
Why does Phil Harvey play in the back and not on stage?
Thanks,
Angela

The Oracle replies:

Phil doesn't actually play in the band on or off the stage. He's referred to as the 5th member but not in terms of being a musician. Matt McGinn is the only person outside of the band to have done that during live shows. For example he played guitar offstage on Yellow during the Twisted Logic tour.
