Cristopher Hedge (which is his real name) has been with the band for many
years and he takes care of the sound at concerts (at the mixing table) and
also in the studio. There is an interview in Fanzine 2 of the Dutch Marillion
Fanclub (spring '92). It is mainly about the kind of equipment he uses.

Privet is an actual word and it is a small shrub or bush that is used for
hedges around yards.  Not surprisingly it's mainly a british word.

     PRIVET n. any of a genus of shrubs or trees of the olive family, with
     bluish-black berries and spikes of white flowers, often grown for
     hedges.  Also called Lingustrum vulgare (the common privet).

So the name Privet is a nickname given jokingly because of the guy's
surname.
