Ashcroft made peace with him and bassist Simon Jones and the band reformed.

He filled in on a UK/EU tour in 2002, when their original drummer Nick Jago could not get a working visa[citation needed] for BRMC's British gigs.

Salisbury owned and ran a drum shop, "Drummin", in Stockport, England.

[citation needed] Following the Verve's third demise in 2008, in October 2010, Salisbury played drums on The Charlatans UK tour, while their regular drummer Jon Brookes was undergoing treatment for a brain tumour.

Brookes died in 2013, and Salisbury has continued to work as The Charlatans drummer since then, though he has not been made a full member of the band.
