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. "
