I've created a view 'principals' that gives me this output:

pgslekt=> select * from principals where event=15821;
 person | event | place | sort_date  | tag_type
--------+-------+-------+------------+----------
      2 | 15821 |  1152 | 1999-09-17 |        4
      3 | 15821 |  1152 | 1999-09-17 |        4
(2 rows)

How do I go about selecting the "other" person of this event, given that 
I have one of them and the event number? 

I'd also like a view that gives me the two rows combined into one, with 
"person" replaced by p1 and p2.
