I believe he only gave one tour of any of his music.

There are times when the music is in sync to what we're seeing. But, other times it's not.
Right about 5 minutes they have an acoustic guitar player that is definitely not playing what we're gearing.
Happens a lot of times later too.
I wonder if the editor felt they needed to show a guy playing a part but didn't have tape from that particular moment & figured nobody would notice.

From his wiki page

In 2017, Oldfield expressed support for then US President Donald Trump and said he would have played at Trump's inauguration if he had been invited to do so. In the same interview, he also stated that he was in favour of Brexit.[92][93]
