Although Fidler had been advocating for the group to reform for years, his work commitments with ABC Radio prevented him from participating and Livingston again filled his place as the group's guitarist. In 2016, Livingston wrote a memoir titled D.A.A.S.: Their Part in My Downfall, which chronicled his association with the group in the 1980s and 1990s as a support act and collaborator, and then as a member of the reformed group.
