Scott was a last minute replacement for famous roadie Dave Harvey ("Doive") who left the group right at the start of the January 1980 US tour (maybe even before the first concert).
Jeff Seitz: "I picked up Dave and the equipment at JFK. Drove him to the Iroqouis Hotel in Manhattan and the next day he told Kim Turner "oim leevin the groop" He flew home that day. Dano called up his friend Scott Giaquinto to be guitar tech for the two week US tour. "

Quotations and trivia
In his book Wild Thing Ian Copeland mentions that he booked The Police for three shows at the China Sports and Cultural Center in Taipei, Taiwan. These shows were cancelled due to Sting's throat infection. There's no place in the concert timeline for these shows, but it looks like the booking process was always a work in progress...
The Kit Kat Club in Bangkok and another club in Singapore were considered for concerts as well - probably for 1980-03-22 and 1980-03-23 respectively. These concerts were not played, probably because the rescheduled Australian dates were considered more important.
