Read an interview with him recently. He's bipolar, but on happy pills now. So maybe he'll crack a smile during the L.A. show.

Just back from the Specials. Fantastic show!

I think I saw a hint of a smile from Terry. He seemed pretty relaxed and happy to be there. Was tossing bottles of water into the crowd ...
