Yeah i agree, i think i heard PJ describe him as "a jolly singing man" or something like that. So for the sake of Tom's reputaion i think it was a good idea not having him in the movie. I also think that had he been in the movie it would be too long and it would slow the story down considerably. I think he would be cool in a short film though!
