For what you'd pay for one of those, you'd be able to find a well-made new import model that would likely perform better.

I go to Europe every year or so, and I'm still afraid to drive there! Streets are tiny, and the traffic rules are different, even though I've only been to places where they drive on the same side as us. But then, maybe I'm not a good barometer, 'cause I hate driving HERE! Don't know about the UK, but on the continent, public transport is so good that I don't generally regret not driving... theo From akomins at MIDWAY.UCHICAGO.EDU Wed May 1 12:38:02 2002 From: akomins at MIDWAY.UCHICAGO.EDU (Arin Komins) Date: Wed, 1 May 2002 11:38:02 -0500 Subject: OFF: UK travel tips?

I'm still trying to find a reasonable rate to get over there. (hey boc-l'ers. chime in with what airlines you are flying, and what price you managed to get.) As for transportation, well, I think it depends on how close your flights are to the fest itself. When I went over to the UK and did the "drooling fangirl follow the band around" thing, I rented a car, mostly because I didn't trust pubtrans to get me where I needed to go in the short period of time I had to travel. Although Rich managed to get around ok by train when he did his week. That said, a couple of caveats about renting a car over there: 1) If you don't drive a manual, you may find that most rental agencies don't have automatics available, and if they do, then they are more expensive.... 2) Make sure you familiarize yourself with road regulations before renting the car. The agency I rented from didn't give me any of that, and I was very confused at first. 3) The slow lane is the left lane, not the right. This is probably self-evident to everyone but me, but hey.... 4) Street signs are frequently somewhat lower to the ground, then they are in the states. 5) watch out for really narrow roads. 6) Take extra time. Whenever I got stressed out (as Mike, Jill, and Rich can attest ;-) ), I fell back into drifting to the wrong side of the road. 7) When planning routes, Motorways and A roads are decent in size, but the others can be iffy. ....that said, of course, I'm sure there are going to be a bunch of us flying into London and needing to get out to the fest site. We should rent a coach or something, if we can all coordinate times.

Hawkwind - 'Masters of Rock' CD EMI 5377652 A compilation covering the UA era, culled entirely from the EMI remasters except for two more recent bonus tracks. Interestingly, this seems to be a "replacement" for the 'Masters of the Universe' compilation - it includes 5 out of 6 cuts from that one (only "It's So Easy" is omitted), plus 3 cuts from the 'Roadhawks' compilation ("Hurry on Sundown", "Silver Machine", "Urban Guerilla" ... it would have been nice to have the edited version of "Paranoia" (parts 1 & 2) and the "Space Is Deep"/"Wind of Change"/"Golden Void" medley from that comp on CD ... oh well ...). The other UA-era tracks are "Mirror of Illusion", "Lord of Light" (single version), and "Paradox". Nothing from 'Warrior' (and only two songs from HotMG). Of the new tracks, the first is mis-titled AND mis-credited! Although the title is "Love in Space", you only get one verse and one chorus from that song, followed by four minutes of Capt. Rizz doing "Rat Race" (which fades out before the transition back to "Love in Space"). And then the songwriting credit reads "Davey" (since this is a live version from 1997, Alan/Ali doesn't even play on it)! Pretty un-essential if you already have 'In Your Area' or 'Hawkwind 1997'. "Lighthouse", from last October's Royal Festival Hall show, is actually fairly different from the 'Yule Ritual' version (in more than just the different lead guitarist). Pretty good, as long as you can tolerate Tim's vocals (of course). So now we get to the fun part of the review - savaging the liner notes! While the sentiment of the notes (basically, "Dave Brock wants you to open your mind") is entirely worthy, the usual amusing inaccuracies are present. Although there are no track credits, the notes list the musicians as Brock / Lloyd-Langton / Turner / Lemmy / DikMik / House / Dettmar / King & Calvert ... even though Huw & Simon House each appear on only 3 tracks (same as Terry Ollis, who isn't mentioned), one of which is the new "Lighthouse". More amusingly, the notes list some quotes "from Dave Brock" supporting the "open your mind" thesis ... the only problem is that the quotes are from "Coded Languages" (lyrics by Moorcock) and "Aerospaceage Inferno" (lyrics by Calvert) - neither one a Brock composition (not even the music). And even though the lyrics to "Urban Guerilla" are (unfortunately) as topical as they ever were, I'm not really sure that that's something you'd want to brag about (especially when plenty of Dave's & Bob's other songs are still equally topical) ... ... and did Hawkwind REALLY play for five hours at Stonehenge in 1977 (at which the summer solstice is the LONGEST day of the year, not the shortest)?!? VERDICT: As good an introductory compilation as any (unless you want a career-spanning one, in which case 'Epoch Eclipse' would be the right purchase). But of little use to fans unless you're a hardkore kollektor, or you just gotta have the new version of "Lighthouse". And the credit for the two new songs is very telling ... -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From mikemont at NYCAP.RR.COM Wed May 1 15:56:40 2002 From: mikemont at NYCAP.RR.COM (Le Duc de Montfort) Date: Wed, 1 May 2002 15:56:40 -0400 Subject: don't like chain letters, but this one is an exception: Message-ID: I don't like chain letters, but this one is an exception: This has been kept alive and moving since 9/11. In memory of all those who perished this morning; the passengers and the pilots on the United Air and AA flights, the workers in the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, and all the innocent bystanders. Our prayers go out to the friends and families of the deceased. IF I KNEW If I knew it would be the last time That I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep. If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more. If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day. If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming you would KNOW I do. If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day, Well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away. For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything just right. There will always be another day to say "I love you," And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do?" But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight. So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day, That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish. So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear, Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear Take time to say "I'm sorry," "Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay." And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today. Send this to at least 10 people to show your support.

That’s pretty much the way it is. An air travel courier is someone who carries shipping documents on international flights for a courier company in exchange for a discounted air ticket. You don’t get paid much – the reward is the cheap flight, normally 50%-85% off the full fare. Sometimes courier companies do offer free flights, but this is only when they are in dire need of a last minute courier. Freight companies need couriers because it’s often cheaper for a courier company to have a person check freight through as luggage than it is for them to ship freight as air cargo. Clearing customs is a lot quicker too, as cargo can often sit for days. It is for this reason you are not allowed to take luggage – just a carry-on bag so that the shipping material becomes your check-in bags. Most trips require that you return with 7, 14 or 21 days, most companies insist that you don’t drink “on-the-job” and you must dress appropriately – that can mean a suit. Accommodation at your destination is your own responsibility. Virtually anyone can be a courier, but some companies require couriers to be at least 21 years old. Usually in Australia courier flights operate from Sydney to London, but some flights from New York, Los Angeles and Hong Kong do round trips to Sydney. Some flights out of London do round trips to Melbourne and Adelaide and there is one out of New York that does a round trip to Brisbane. The busiest cities with the greatest demand and biggest variety of destinations are New York and London. Airlines used by companies include United, American, British Airways and you fly economy and the ticket is always return. Companies such as FedEx and UPS have their own aircraft so do not need the services of casual couriers, but if you want to be put on the books of IAATC – International Association of Air Couriers – who look after companies needing one-off couriers, you should contact them at Box 1349, Lake Worth, Florida 33460 USA, phone them on 0011 1 561 582 8320, Fax 0011 1 561 582 1581 or visit their website - www.courier org.

Message-ID: I can identify with your concern. Being a Brit, the US roads used to scare me to death. It wasn't just driving on the wrong side of the road, there were other aspects, like being able to turn right at a red light. Pedestrian walkways were also a problem, when the green man was indicating walk it would also be green for traffic. In the UK when its green for pedestrians its red for traffic. The first time I drove in the states (in Los Angeles) I was waiting to turn right at a junction. There was traffic crossing in all directions and the guy behind was honking the horn to get me to hurry up. So after carefully looking left, right, and straight over, and making sure there was no other cars around, I set off and turned right. Just as some people stepped of the sidewalk right into my part. How I didn't take them out I'll never know. So in the UK we have our revenge. Hire a car at Heathrow airport. Its the best way to get around the UK. Remember to drive on the left. Remember most UK cars are not automatics (use the clutch and gear lever). And the first obstacle you will come to is a roundabout. As most Americans are not familiar with this road concept it can be quite daunting and a challenge. Basically, put your right foot to the floor, close your eyes, and hope for the best. If your religious, praying is also an option worth considering. Oh and another tip. Don't turn left until the light changes from red to green.

Dan Ductor (Recently married and soon to be a father of another HW fan....) -----Original Message----- From: Doug Pearson [SMTP:jasret at MINDSPRING.COM] Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 1:05 PM To: BOC-L at LISTSERV.SPC.EDU Subject: HW: the new compilation Nobody seems to have mentioned it on-list yet, so here's some info / opinions ... Hawkwind - 'Masters of Rock' CD EMI 5377652 A compilation covering the UA era, culled entirely from the EMI remasters except for two more recent bonus tracks. Interestingly, this seems to be a "replacement" for the 'Masters of the Universe' compilation - it includes 5 out of 6 cuts from that one (only "It's So Easy" is omitted), plus 3 cuts from the 'Roadhawks' compilation ("Hurry on Sundown", "Silver Machine", "Urban Guerilla" ... it would have been nice to have the edited version of "Paranoia" (parts 1 & 2) and the "Space Is Deep"/"Wind of Change"/"Golden Void" medley from that comp on CD ... oh well ...). The other UA-era tracks are "Mirror of Illusion", "Lord of Light" (single version), and "Paradox". Nothing from 'Warrior' (and only two songs from HotMG). Of the new tracks, the first is mis-titled AND mis-credited! Although the title is "Love in Space", you only get one verse and one chorus from that song, followed by four minutes of Capt. Rizz doing "Rat Race" (which fades out before the transition back to "Love in Space"). And then the songwriting credit reads "Davey" (since this is a live version from 1997, Alan/Ali doesn't even play on it)! Pretty un-essential if you already have 'In Your Area' or 'Hawkwind 1997'. "Lighthouse", from last October's Royal Festival Hall show, is actually fairly different from the 'Yule Ritual' version (in more than just the different lead guitarist). Pretty good, as long as you can tolerate Tim's vocals (of course). So now we get to the fun part of the review - savaging the liner notes! While the sentiment of the notes (basically, "Dave Brock wants you to open your mind") is entirely worthy, the usual amusing inaccuracies are present. Although there are no track credits, the notes list the musicians as Brock / Lloyd-Langton / Turner / Lemmy / DikMik / House / Dettmar / King & Calvert ... even though Huw & Simon House each appear on only 3 tracks (same as Terry Ollis, who isn't mentioned), one of which is the new "Lighthouse". More amusingly, the notes list some quotes "from Dave Brock" supporting the "open your mind" thesis ... the only problem is that the quotes are from "Coded Languages" (lyrics by Moorcock) and "Aerospaceage Inferno" (lyrics by Calvert) - neither one a Brock composition (not even the music). And even though the lyrics to "Urban Guerilla" are (unfortunately) as topical as they ever were, I'm not really sure that that's something you'd want to brag about (especially when plenty of Dave's & Bob's other songs are still equally topical) ... ... and did Hawkwind REALLY play for five hours at Stonehenge in 1977 (at which the summer solstice is the LONGEST day of the year, not the shortest)?!? VERDICT: As good an introductory compilation as any (unless you want a career-spanning one, in which case 'Epoch Eclipse' would be the right purchase). But of little use to fans unless you're a hardkore kollektor, or you just gotta have the new version of "Lighthouse". And the credit for the two new songs is very telling ... -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From Michaelangelo68 at AOL.COM Thu May 2 11:38:00 2002 From: Michaelangelo68 at AOL.COM (Michael W Blackman) Date: Thu, 2 May 2002 11:38:00 EDT Subject: UK travel tips?

Vocally, the delivery is very much in the stye of Jim Dandy. These new OEB's tunes, reflect a completely different side of my music and production techniques. With Sloterdijk I constantly strive for perfection, layering, texture etc, With 'The One Eyed Bishops', I take a much more laid back approach to everything. These tunes were recorded in a relatively 'raw' way, and it is precisely this rawness, which I find appealing. It is nice to be able to work without such tremendous attention to detail. This is also the type of project wherein which I can just show up with a guitar, and a few mates and jam. No need for loads of synths, rack effects, and the lot. I have been heavily influenced by The Downliners Sect, Yardbirds, Animals etc. There is also a bit of southern rock influence, which has surfaced in the past, via 'White Rhino' In future days more tunes will appear. I am working on a One Eyed Bishops/White Rhino page, but for now the material will be on the sloterdijk site. Also all new spacerock tunes will appear there; taken from the forthcoming Sloterdijk cd, "Beware The Charlatans' ( I am the fourth beast). For now, I give you 'The One Eyed Bishops'......Peace, MIke Burro www.mp3.com/sloterdijk From deltawave at METRONET.COM Thu May 2 13:48:42 2002 From: deltawave at METRONET.COM (mike c) Date: Thu, 2 May 2002 11:48:42 -0600 Subject: HW:xenon codex In-Reply-To: <4.3.1.0.20020502182633.00a80b90@laatikko.saunalahti.fi> Message-ID: Mikka with regards to Korean Xenon which few men will even see in more than one lifetime much less own: >Yes!

It is probably still of major interest to those last remaining few survivors here who still truly walk among us... stay dead or just enjoy at your own risk. Yes, I used to be John Bonham, you know... but then I have to be Rob Halford all over again... fucking Discharge... dead Iron Maiden! "Harvest Of The Innocent" - Cleopatra records and why they are scum The frequently rather flimsy and somewhat unserious reputation of the American Cleopatra label continues to disgust fans and insult artists alike with unbeleivably crap artwork, but they may be getting better, according to some fans and random eyewitnesses alike... With their unforgivably shoddy and generally nauseating habit of releasing and packaging so many of their CD's in crap computer artwork so laughably ugly and so unforgivably cheap and tacky looking that their otherwise generally unedible obsession with sleazy gothic script or primitive science fiction fonts still clash and blur in spindly digital collages, their trademarked computer generated style lending their many releases the unique Cleopatra look. Often mixing random or obscure biblical or mythological imagery to create images of some kind of cosmic or profound interest or value, the typically spidery line artwork and uniquely artificial color schemes on many Cleopatra releases are easily considered just as tacky and substandard to the gifted as to the mad, as many of their generally far simpler outer space type covers prove, often being just a crazy looking collage with a big floating head somewhere, or just some kind of clunky spaceship image or a stupid computer generated robot motif, or even some kind of big empty meteorite storm type thing, a decent composition seems to equal some kind of blurry inertia on most of their cheaper looking releases. The US label first reared their head in the early 90's with Hawkwind founder Nik Turner's rerecorded "Sphynx" album, also housing industrial hardcore pioneers Pressurehed for their three classic and well packaged albums, and while Cleopatra's frontier attitude to the mass market and in-house approach to their product admirably being as DIY as anything else equally mainstream existing in the industrial, psychedelic and gothic underground at the time, their independent role in the record industry certainly lending the label an extent of credit and credibility with such a star roster of artists such as Nik Turner, Psychic TV or Chrome. Despite their otherwise interesting reputation as a label in all their healthy and crass commercialism, promoting their broadened and streamlined genre of industrial rock and beyond to a market so ready for their product and vision that there is no way they can fail, while the underbelly of Cleopatra's otherwise visionary role in the US record industry and the underground music scene in general remains reflected in their blatantly tasteless sleaze machine recycling of the underground just to line their pockets in a quick fix off a commercially marketable chunk of modern underground as some kind of subculture to be cynically and cheaply exploited in the wake of mass marketing like a bunch of fucking jews in buddhism, their otherwise reputable and adult product being continuously packaged and repackaged in pitiful and cheap artwork to an increasingly thriving juvenile market eating out of their hands much to the disgust of an older or wiser group of fans and artists, and as with so many of Cleopatra's numerous dodgy cash-in compilations and crappy reissues floating around in stores as some kind of indication of their real intentions as a ripoff operation of profiteers appearing as something of an amateur phenomena when it boils down to the bare facts, as a label catering so much of their potentially interesting quality product to the less gifted of music fans with alot of cheap looking garbage not only insulting the standard intelligence level of the average connisseur or collector of quality music with flimsy looking reissues and cheap compilations, but as a label Cleopatra openly catering most of their trash product to this kind of low brow high school halloween scene and down to a gutless idiot level of parody of the cutting edge culture which they claim to promote, and as if such a shamelessly cheap and rickety looking underground scene really exists or ever has existed, then it looks like Cleopatra seem to make some kind of bizarre or drunken claim to it in the mass clearance bins of shopping malls and second-hand record stores across America. While Cleopatra as a label still demonstrate their otherwise misplaced intentions and dishonest interest with an attitude of record disregard of integrity so staggering in its mass harvest of the innocent which still demonstrates that this still reluctantly respected and increasingly celebrated label's ceckered past and rather flimsy reputation and rank amateur attitude still remains rooted in some kind of perverted or polluted ideals still somehow rooted in an almost childlike artistic innocence and interest in quality music, Cleopatra's original vision of course founded in a very narrow cultural segment of the music market which still only speaks for the label with some amounts of respect still intact in the wake of all their shoddy rip-offs and bum deals, their otherwise disrespectable record of terrible taste and unfashionable tendencies ever present since their conception, Cleopatra at their worst reaching record highs of disgust and disrespect, cheapening not only the industry in general but also so many of their artists with their somewhat laughable and dodgy reputation, a label known to fleece the underground music scene as often as they can and in as many ways as possible and without any regard to common human decency or real interest of the fans, they sure run their operation as best they can without a shred of honesty, but as we all know, with such a ragtag roster of artists and such an array of completely crap releases under their belt, inetween the odd artistic gem or the rare shimmering demonstration of genius, they still fucking suck like the maggot infested pile of dead idiot liar goths from America they truly seem to be to most of us who still like a bit of fucking music. article (c) 2002, Christian Mumford -Chr. aka 'Big Hairy Dad' ObCD: The Screaming Trees - Anthology: The SST Years 1985 - 1989 --- "A 'Bowie-Shag' is when you miss your vein." - Dr. Crabstix, Nazi Deadhead Commando And Paramedic Hippy Emergency General "You can take the Beatle out of Uncle Charlie, but you can't take Uncle Charlie out of The Beatles!" - Bastard Ceremonial Proverb Of The Immortal Blasphemers Of Sodom "There remains nothing but juggernauting the Apocalypse ?bersoul through the constant avalanche of dying bodies!" - Tubrok The Alterer, Paramilitary Ascendant Archangel Of Christ And Avenging Jehovah Of The Revalations "I actually saw Mot?rhead play at least seven fucking times, right, but I only remembered to bring my fucking woman along just once!" - The Cannibal Swinger, King Of Romania "Mahatma please go die of AIDS or something, you are a disgusting little man dreaming about the world like a filthy little kike, you are so queer, you're a flaming homosexual, you're a sissy, a liar and a thief.

"Harvest Of The Innocent" - Cleopatra records and why they are scum The frequently rather flimsy and somewhat unserious reputation of the American Cleopatra label continues to disgust fans and insult artists alike with unbeleivably crap artwork, but they may be getting better, according to some fans and random eyewitnesses alike... With their unforgivably shoddy and generally nauseating habit of releasing and packaging so many of their CD's in crap computer artwork so laughably ugly and so unforgivably cheap and tacky looking that their otherwise generally unedible obsession with sleazy gothic script or primitive science fiction fonts still clash and blur in spindly digital collages, their trademarked computer generated style lending their many releases the unique Cleopatra look. Often mixing random or obscure biblical or mythological imagery to create images of some kind of cosmic or profound interest or value, the typically spidery line artwork and uniquely artificial color schemes on many Cleopatra releases are easily considered just as tacky and substandard to the gifted as to the mad, as many of their generally far simpler outer space type covers prove, often being just a crazy looking collage with a big floating head somewhere, or just some kind of clunky spaceship image or a stupid computer generated robot motif, or even some kind of big empty meteorite storm type thing, a decent composition seems to equal some kind of blurry inertia on most of their cheaper looking releases. The US label first reared their head in the early 90's with Hawkwind founder Nik Turner's rerecorded "Sphynx" album, also housing industrial hardcore pioneers Pressurehed for their three classic and well packaged albums, and while Cleopatra's frontier attitude to the mass market and in-house approach to their product admirably being as DIY as anything else equally mainstream existing in the industrial, psychedelic and gothic underground at the time, their independent role in the record industry certainly lending the label an extent of credit and credibility with such a star roster of artists such as Nik Turner, Psychic TV or Chrome. Despite their otherwise interesting reputation as a label in all their healthy and crass commercialism, promoting their broadened and streamlined genre of industrial rock and beyond to a market so ready for their product and vision that there is no way they can fail, while the underbelly of Cleopatra's otherwise visionary role in the US record industry and the underground music scene in general remains reflected in their blatantly tasteless sleaze machine recycling of the underground just to line their pockets in a quick fix off a commercially marketable chunk of modern underground as some kind of subculture to be cynically and cheaply exploited in the wake of mass marketing like a bunch of fucking jews in buddhism, their otherwise reputable and adult product being continuously packaged and repackaged in pitiful and cheap artwork to an increasingly thriving juvenile market eating out of their hands much to the disgust of an older or wiser group of fans and artists, and as with so many of Cleopatra's numerous dodgy cash-in compilations and crappy reissues floating around in stores as some kind of indication of their real intentions as a ripoff operation of profiteers appearing as something of an amateur phenomena when it boils down to the bare facts, as a label catering so much of their potentially interesting quality product to the less gifted of music fans with alot of cheap looking garbage not only insulting the standard intelligence level of the average connisseur or collector of quality music with flimsy looking reissues and cheap compilations, but as a label Cleopatra openly catering most of their trash product to this kind of low brow high school halloween scene and down to a gutless idiot level of parody of the cutting edge culture which they claim to promote, and as if such a shamelessly cheap and rickety looking underground scene really exists or ever has existed, then it looks like Cleopatra seem to make some kind of bizarre or drunken claim to it in the mass clearance bins of shopping malls and second-hand record stores across America. While Cleopatra as a label still demonstrate their otherwise misplaced intentions and dishonest interest with an attitude of record disregard of integrity so staggering in its mass harvest of the innocent which still demonstrates that this still reluctantly respected and increasingly celebrated label's ceckered past and rather flimsy reputation and rank amateur attitude still remains rooted in some kind of perverted or polluted ideals still somehow rooted in an almost childlike artistic innocence and interest in quality music, Cleopatra's original vision of course founded in a very narrow cultural segment of the music market which still only speaks for the label with some amounts of respect still intact in the wake of all their shoddy rip-offs and bum deals, their otherwise disrespectable record of terrible taste and unfashionable tendencies ever present since their conception, Cleopatra at their worst reaching record highs of disgust and disrespect, cheapening not only the industry in general but also so many of their artists with their somewhat laughable and dodgy reputation, a label known to fleece the underground music scene as often as they can and in as many ways as possible and without any regard to common human decency or real interest of the fans, they sure run their operation as best they can without a shred of honesty, but as we all know, with such a ragtag roster of artists and such an array of completely crap releases under their belt, inetween the odd artistic gem or the rare shimmering demonstration of genius, they still fucking suck like the maggot infested pile of dead idiot liar goths from America they truly seem to be to most of us who still like a bit of fucking music. article (c) 2002, Christian Mumford -Chr. aka 'Big Hairy Dad' ObCD: The Screaming Trees - Anthology: The SST Years 1985 - 1989 --- "A 'Bowie-Shag' is when you miss your vein." - Dr. Crabstix, Nazi Deadhead Commando And Paramedic Hippy Emergency General "You can take the Beatle out of Uncle Charlie, but you can't take Uncle Charlie out of The Beatles!" - Bastard Ceremonial Proverb Of The Immortal Blasphemers Of Sodom "There remains nothing but juggernauting the Apocalypse ?bersoul through the constant avalanche of dying bodies!" - Tubrok The Alterer, Paramilitary Ascendant Archangel Of Christ And Avenging Jehovah Of The Revalations "I actually saw Mot?rhead play at least seven fucking times, right, but I only remembered to bring my fucking woman along just once!" - The Cannibal Swinger, King Of Romania "Mahatma please go die of AIDS or something, you are a disgusting little man dreaming about the world like a filthy little kike, you are so queer, you're a flaming homosexual, you're a sissy, a liar and a thief.

Just go for a big old helping off that massive mouth watering roasted leg of lamb stuffed with all that fresh garlic clove and parsley, or at least just pull yourself together like a man of common royalty during this sort of irritangly late easter season celebration. "NOBODY CAN EAT SUPERMAN" 'a true Hawkwind autobigraphy from 1994 and 1995 served up like the kind of porkchop you only cook by yourself' ...presenting my own story of women and drugs and rock music and things like that as presented in the name of jesus christ and the devil in two a part live action expose... 'one dollar hot dog' I just stuck my hand down her beautiful shaven crotch when I undressed her and unbuckled her overalls and said she was just a beautiful naked girl I had never met. She had a Danzig skull tattoo over her ass. After many adventures together we eventually wound up spending alot of time together either just hanging out together to get away from roomates and even getting naked together after escaping a party or two we just had to do it anyway. I loved licking her in the face, sucking on her chin and her crazy old wart and just cleaning her entire mouth with my tongue and digging her missing tooth while fingering her ass from behind as we fucked in intimate extatacy for hours on end to not only satisfy myself but also to please my woman during all those many long and draining hours we spent screwing like that we became so dry in our mouths and so comfortably fatigued that we sometimes suffered together while laying together talking and touching eacother in the secret campfire setting on the floor of the trip room being so in love you think are so engulfed in Krsna death and forever so deeply in love you never think a human body was even made for such intensely painful states of unbearable pleasure and longing for closeness. Eventually we moved in together and by that time she had dyed her hair black and turned desperately macho, running around with some kind of butch heavy metal attitude and stuff and I figured she was going through some kind of gothic kind of obsession or even a crazy kind of insane hippy phase wearing those stylih little flares I liked so much, and seeing her getting fucked up on dope and being really pissed off. I let her run loose at night like some kind of crazy animal anyway if she really thought she had to get out of the house or whatever between our long and healthy sessions of Krsna intercourse. I even sometimes tried to cook up something light and for me and her with her being a chicken vegetarian and everything making her little tummy so much harder to please, I just wanted to make to make my old honey happy again after all this time. I eventually just gave her a silver Jormundgandr serpent arm bracelet, seeing as she occasionally wore a slave bracelet which she talked about once or twice to me, and since she liked silver, and as I had always too, I simply tried saying I still loved her as like the day we first met, as if we had gotten older together, keeping a Mj?lne Thor's hammer for myself. We had actually had a great time once tripping on mescaline together and fucking in total ecstacy to Hawkwind's "Electric Tepee" album on my bed during a trip at our old house before we had moved in together, and I wanted to commemorate the occasion as some kind of ancient Hawkwind deadhead. I suppose I somehow own a girl with a Danzig tattoo over her ass because I still do anything for her sorry ass go-go dancing heavy metal fallout biker casualty any time, and I damn well do what I want to do with my old lady anyway because own her sorry heroin loser ass until the day I die in bed painfully spanking my sorry old Nazarene warrior self to its final throes of death in Krsna extacy as someting along those lines just to commemorate my old lady. 'hundred dollar paella' I had done Jenny only once because I had to. I almost forced her after our pleasantly intimate and otherwise memorable moments together and I didn't understand why she was so afraid of me. She had even told me once that she had been abused by an older cousin as a child and I didn't understand what she was talking about. She had scars all over her body from some kind of bone operation as a child. It was just kind of weird. I didn't even know she was a virgin until she told me and then I thought if that should even matter to any of us or then I guess she has to accept some kind of fact that if she's so serious with me then she has to at least say she is open to things. I'd never really told her about Dorothea because it was weird to talk about things like heavy metal or hardcore to a nice little Swedish girl like Jenny. I just thought she was some kind of weird new age earth spirit or something like that inside because she was Swedish. She pretty much knew I was some kind of crazy guy who had had some kind of previous sexual affairs or had done alot of crazy drugs or whatever she thought I was in her different kind of world she came from. I was actually a pretty hardcore psychopath inside in the company of her friends. From the very start I had pretty much said that if she hangs with me then she better take some kind of message unless she is an idiot or something. Sometimes she could look so damn stupid I swore she was a little bit retarded or something. Years later I just had pretty much already decided she had to die in Buddhism because she was a liar to my face about even remotely liking me as a person despite her constant interest in e after I pretty much left her thinking her some kind of crazy little idiot trying to drive me insane, and because I already had wanted to trash her anyway from day one because she was some kind of stupid virgin cow at some point and a just some kind of whore anyway in my presence, and even though she was a sweet girl, she really just asked me to die or something. So I did her once and trashed her years later with an unstamped FedEx envelope marked "LSD" containing all her completely uninteresting and sickening little love letters. I had been some kind of hippy for years anyway.

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade but nothing sounds like a Jazzmaster but a Jazzmaster. Yes, the Japanese ones are nice if you don't mind thick chunky necks but the USA reissue is almost exactly like the original, in both feel and sound. If you're looking for something kind of like it then the Mexican Strat is the closest thing. Having played in a band with two guitarists, one using a Melody Maker (brother Joe) and the other a Jazzmaster (cousin Ted), the Melody Maker lasted about a month (Joe got a Strat). I've tried the Jagstang and the Jagmaster and they both fall into the category of OK alternative guitars but the magic of a Jazzmaster is almost completely absent from them. Jazzmasters have the most deep, rich, sustaining twang of any electric guitar. There is simply no guitar like it. Probably because of that damn bridge! ;-) Al From rich at BEERPOWEREDNOISEFRENZY.CO.UK Fri May 3 19:58:10 2002 From: rich at BEERPOWEREDNOISEFRENZY.CO.UK (Richard Lockwood) Date: Sat, 4 May 2002 00:58:10 +0100 Subject: Warning Message-ID: I've sent this message to a load of people - you who were in the pub this eveing already know this, you who weren't, please read and be careful.

Unfortunately no-one was in, and neither were the neighbours. However, with a bit of detective work (nothing illegal!), I managed to find out that the mail at the property was not addressed to Adrian, but to someone else. That doesn't mean he's no longer there, of course, but I think it's extremely unlikely. I'll write to the occupier in the next week or two to see if he can shed any light on Adrian's disappearance (and not least to point out that his address is still being publicised on websites, etc.), and report back to you all if/when I hear anything. Incidentally, I later went up to Portobello Road and can confirm that No. 275 is now called "George's Famous Mountain Grill" (it had been "George's Fish Bar" for many years). By the way, does anyone know the whereabouts of a guy from London called Scruff, who used to work on Hawkwind's mixing desk some 20 years ago? He used to live on Wandsworth Road in south London. I became friends with him and he helped me out once when I had a bit of trouble with the law (nuff said!). But I lost touch with him in the mid-80s, and it would be great to get back in touch with him. And finally ... I'm still trying to obtain a Hawkwind / Pink Fairies poster advertising a gig at London's Roundhouse in February 1975. It was green and pink/orange, with a picture of an American Indian's head in the middle. A member of this group very kindly produced a colour photocopy of it for me earlier this year (thanks again - you know who you are!), but if anyone has one, I would pay serious money for it.

If you can stomach this insane editing, it's a good disc. The editing is criminal on this disc! I'm not sure I attribute it to radio station editing more to crappy bootlegging. I have _The Thing!_, which is the same show, and so when I bought this two-disc set, expected _The Thing!_, but mastered from the original source tapes, and not from a vinyl pressing (transcription disc?) like _The Thing!_ is. So, as well as the crappy fades, they also omit some songs from _The Thing!_ (I don't have my copies to hand, so I can't list them). Why they did this, I'm not sure, as there is space on the CD. The between-song fades not only kill the live atmosphere, but they also omit some priceless banter. For instance, the banter from Eric before "Heavy Metal," where Buck is trying to get his amp's feedback just right for the intro is funny and shouldn't have been left off. My advice is to skip this one and look for _The Thing!_. => The second disc, 'Pasadena Perkins Palace 1983,' is pretty good => stuff. I think I've encountered it on some footwear of the past. => It's interesting for the inclusion of Workshop of the Telescopes, and => Born To Rock, from BD's Flat Out. The second disc seems to be a straight boot of _Nail You Down_.

If you like => 'em so much, why did you drop them in the first place? I got the feeling that this was not being put out by Sony, but by someone else with the ostensible permission of Sony. But, like I said, I think it's a bootleg: mutton dressed up as lamb. If you have _The Thing!_ and _Nail You Down_ then skip this release, as it offers nothing over them, and subtracts a lot. It's particularly heinous that the same company have decided to release a limited edition vinyl pressing of this package, too. Beat the boots!!

Hmm...could be this theory makes sense. Maybe the ommited tunes were ones Sony doesn't own? Anyone got Cult Classic around? Those are the songs that BD,AL and EB control the rights to. Nah, that can't be it, too much 'classic' B?C material here. I understand AB cut a separate deal with Sony, so all his stuff is, I believe, subject to their at-will defilement! But, considering the proliferation of compilations, I guess Sony must have pretty much carte-blanche with the B?C oeuvre. Maybe the Cult Classic stuff is okay for 3?C to use on their own without Sony's permission?

They played selections from their three classic 70's albums, most of the new one ('DFFD'), and several selections from the Manitoba's Wild Kingdom album (kicking off the set with, "The Party Starts Now"). No covers (not even "Slow Death", whose original author/singer, ex-Flamin' Groovie Roy Loney, was in the house), but with a songwriter as good as Andy Shernoff, who needs 'em? You got your odes to wrestling ("Two Tub Man"), carnivorism ("Burn Baby" - OF COURSE we ate cheeseburgers before the show, even though there's no White Castles in northern CA!), the local 'hood ("Avenue A" - where the hippies/punks used to play), watching tv, etc. And the recent single, "Who Will Save Rock And Roll," is easily one of the all-time great rock anthems. Of course, Handsome Dick Manitoba's song introductions were vastly entertaining throughout, although (to his credit) he didn't repeat the ones he used for the albums - so no Eric Bloom reference before "Two Tub Man". However, introducing another song, he told the audience that after this song, "You'll be truly enlightened! You won't need to go to no church or synagogue or mosque or nothing," then added, "unless you're Sandy Pearlman who's already enlightened" (or something to that extent about SP ... who he seemed to imply might be in the audience that night ... there were certaily enough guys in the audience who looked old enough to be SP, but I wouldn't recognize the guy if he was walking around with a quaalude on his tongue while calling out for, "Susie dear..."). (The song in question was "Pussy and Money" - the two things that make the world go 'round - co-written by David Roter.) One big difference between the Dictators and BOC (as if there weren't enough already) - the 'Tators must be about a foot taller on the average (bassist Shernoff is something like 6'4" - way over 2 meters). And for the HW camp (or the Nik/ICU camp of the HW camp, at least), lead guitarist Ross the Boss bore a *frighteningly* close resemblance to Judge Trev. And, of course, Handsome Dick Manitoba is the same kind of high- energy give-it-all-up-for-the-fans compelling rock frontman that Uncle Nik is. Finally, at 5 minutes before 2AM, the house lights came on and the set ended. Amazingly enough, the club let the band come back on for a two-song encore (they certainly would have had a pissed-off audience otherwise), which wound up several minutes after "closing time". If you like rock and roll, see them when they come to your town! -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From mikemont at NYCAP.RR.COM Tue May 7 20:42:12 2002 From: mikemont at NYCAP.RR.COM (Duc De Montfort) Date: Tue, 7 May 2002 20:42:12 -0400 Subject: From the May New Releases VoicePrint email newsletter Message-ID: Artist: HAWKWIND Title: "LIVE '90" Price: ?15.99 (2CD) LABEL: HAWK RECORDS CAT.

Not only does this double CD contain the whole Nottingham 1990 show but also a unique TV broadcast. Hawkwind made the rare TV appearance on a music show called "Bedrock". It was a strange affair, as although it was filmed live the set was interrupted a few times for the Bedrock team to make adjustments. Equally as strange, was that the lighting levels were unusually high (for a Hawkwind concert at least), this was so that viewers had something to watch, as the show was to be screened across all the ITV regions. Hawkwind's screen projections, because of the high lighting levels, had to be filmed the following day, and placed over the footage. The show was a real stormer. For the first time it was possible to see the band clearly, rather than shadowy figures on stage. Bridgett Wishart (Hippy Slags) guested on vocals. Shortly after the TV event Simon House left the band and Bridgett Wishart, who'd been guesting with the band for some months, joined on a full-time basis. Bridgett was the first female vocalist for Hawkwind. Packed with great pictures and sleeve notes full of anecdotes this long awaited release. Will be in great demand. Hawkwind continue to keep their profile high with extensive Tours adding to their fanbase continuously.

Since you ask me. In a public forum and all. The polite and tactful answer would be that though I have some time for _Of Stars and Time_, I think that the loss of Phil H. deprives Spacehead of an important texture and subtlety that made its impact more solemn and deep, and that the more basic and high-speed version that exists now lacks the appeal that that solemnity gave it. The tactless and impolite version would be to refer you to these older postings of mine on the subject. And before you look at them, if you can honestly be bothered, I should stress that I'm not a musician, couldn't do what they do [1] and that you should probably impute any difference in our perspectives to my deviant taste rather than their output. But, I can be found putting in the boot in: Though I even found some nice things to say about them while attempting not to start a flamewar with Andy Garibaldi over my suggesting Krel were a touch imitative, in: But what, as Bernard Shaw said, are you and I against so many? Hopefully you will be happy to discount me as a madman. Yours, Jon Jarrett [1] Now I scout through them I notice I said I could write better lyrics. But I've only got _Of Stars and Time_ so yours may have outstripped mine in quality since then, and in any case the fundamental thing would be that none of mine have been recorded.

Yes, stage lights will make a big difference ('Space Ritual' cover photos are proof of this, regarding Lemmy's bass!). The carved top looks very cool, I can't wait to see what that looks like in-the-flesh (in-the- wood?). My only complaint is that I don't like gold hardware on musical instruments.

Was it first-come, >first-served, or was there a lottery? Or are they *really* steep?! And >then, how could you afford it? :) Actually, the edition was originally 50, announced in late December 2000. It took about 3 months for the edition to sell out via dealer advance orders (I just called up one of the best-known Rickenbacker dealers in the USA, asked him to get one for me, and gave him my credit card# for the 20% deposit ... I also asked him to try to get my a specific number of the edition; any Hawkwind fan ought to be able to figure out what number [obviously between 1 and 50] that is, although you DO have to do the math). So during that window of opportunity (jan-mar '01), anyone who could put down a depost could order one. Things got complicated in march or april, when Rickenbacker "fired" one of their dealers, and invalidated all advance orders that dealer had taken. Obviously, people who had ordered a 4004LK bass through that dealer were rather upset, so Rickenbacker added 10 more basses to the limited edition for their benefit. As for the price, it's a bit less than I paid for my 1968 Rickenbacker bass, and considerably less than the Wiard modular or Alesis Andromeda (both analog synths). >>>--------------------------------------------------------- >>>PRIMORDIAL UNDERMIND >>>(cool guitar-psych rock band now with Tom Carter from Mike Gunn) >> >>The other band in this tour is the Davis Redford Triad, psychedelic rock >>of a somewhat more experimental variety than the 'Undermind, led by Faust >>guitarist Steven Wray Lobdell. > >What label are these guys on?

I don't know that we have anybody here down in that part of the country (Houston TX) but if anyone wants to plan a fun 'psychedelic trip' for this summer, given that a pilgrimage to Ohio (for Strange Daze, RIP?) seems unlikely this year, perhaps this would make a nice replacement? Isn't there also another plan for a PT (Terrastock) weekend up in the northeast? I remember there was one, was it Providence?, like 4 years ago....I thought I remember reading they were going to do another up there. Last year's was in Seattle IIRC. If anyone knows, could you post details? Grakkl (FAA) PTOLEMAIC TERRASCOPE PRESENTS... - Friday, July 26 and Saturday, July 27 @ Rudyards -- two nights featuring the best of this state's psychedelic music scene, all in tribute to the wonderful British music magazine Ptolemaic Terrascope. The Terrascope has been called "the bible of psychedelic music" and has spawned a much (deservedly) hyped semi-annual music festival (Terrastock) as well as a planet of loyal fanatics (The Terrastock Nation). Editors Phil McMullen and Nick Saloman (of The Bevis Frond), while definitely rooted in the music of the sixties (man), have a decidedly non-stodgy defintion of the term "psychedelic," so it's not unusual to read features praising the virtues of bands like Moby Grape and Nurse With Wound in the same issue. Since its inception, the Terrascope has given heavy coverage to bands from Texas, in particular bands who call Houston home. Since this type of music has received little to no coverage in the local music press, at least a few Houstonians first heard of local bands like The Mike Gunn, Charalambides, and The Dunlavy in the pages of the Terrascope. In an effort to "give a little something back", local labels Worship Guitars and Fleece Records, along with Eric Arn of Austin's Primordial Undermind, have set up a series of shows in Houston and Austin (the following weekend) to showcase some great Texas psych bands with all proceeds going to Ptolemaic Terrascope. These shows have the full blessing of the magazine. Confirmed to play the Houston dates are ST-37 (Austin), Crevice (San Antonio), Winslow (Denton), Primordial Undermind (Austin), Linus Pauling Quartet (Houston), The Mirrors (Houston), the first ever live show by The Dunlavy (Houston...ex-The Mike Gunn members Scott Grimm and John Cramer), and a very special reunion show by The Golden Dawn, whose 1968 album "Power Plant" on the revered International Artists label remains a classic of Texas psych. There will also be films by Shaun Kelly and Atton Paul plus the requisite merch booths.

Tuesday, "the red and the black" with an organ (+ no guitar) courtesy of Mike Watt and the Secondmen. A BOC anecdote to prove how it unifies the world: Albany Tupil festival was this weekend, and some guy was getting a guitar out of his car near my apartment, but he left his case on the trunk. SO I take it into my buildings foyer, since im sitting out reading philosophy, its a nice day, and hope to give it back to him later. He does show up eventually, give him the case back and he's stunned someone did not steal it. Talk a bit, and it turns out his band opened for 3OC in 97 or so. and he gives me a fiscal reward for my non-theiving. how's that for tyranny and mutation?

Not a HW-cover band -- most of their songs were originals -- but definitely a tribute in the broader sense, what with that name, a song called "Radio Calvert", and a 20-minute blistering cover of "Orgone Accumulator" (complete with spoken-word rant on Wilhelm Reich and the way he was railroaded).

Of course there was the Cleveland-area band called "Sun Machine" that was more-or-less active in the period from about 1996-98. These were among Jim Lascko's first attempts at putting together space rock events with light shows and such. Most gigs were at the Phantasy Night Club (or the Symposium next door) in western suburban Cleveland. The lineup was fluid and unpredictable. Here are some of the names... Dann Diefer - vocals, acoustic guitar Mark (?) Marianetti - vocals, poetry Steve Taylor - guitar (mainly?), sometimes bass (?) Steve Hayes (?) - keyboards (this is a guess...I'm not sure he was really with them, but seems logical to assume he was) ??? - bass (I can't remember who played bass for them) Thom Marianetti - drums (like Steve Taylor, a Nick Riff band alum) Jim Lascko - lightshow Scott Kuti - lights, occasionally vocals, Spaceman suit Doug Walker - synthesizer, flute/sax - One-time special guest There were tapes of their debut performance at the Phantasy floating around boc-l before they were known as Sun Machine. The tapes usually credited them as the "Angels of Death" band. I don't know who was responsible for that moniker.

Message-ID: While visiting some friends with a huge collection of rock-star-bios in their library this weekend, I was thumbing through Aerosmith's autobiography (90% quotes from band, managers, wives, crew, etc.), and it mentions that very early in their career, they opened for Hawkwind for five dates in (I think) late '73 or early '74 (damn! I can't even remember which bandmember the quote came from ... maybe even their then-tour manager or agent). The book seems to imply that this was in the south (Richmond, Virginia?), which is odd, since I'm not aware of HW ever having played south of the Mason-Dixon line (except Baltimore/DC and southern CA ... oops! I stand corrected: the March/April '74 US tour included at least Atlanta 29 March & Nashville 3 April, and since there are no gigs listed between those dates, it's likely that there were some other southern US gigs in there ... the closest dates on the next tour, Sept/Oct '74, are Memphis 16 Oct & Oklahoma City 20 Oct ... neither one remotely close to Richmond, and the only gap in that tour seems to be after the Hammond, Indiana show 21 sept., which is [IIRC] the one after which their equipment was impounded over back taxes, delaying the tour for 3 weeks). It definitely said five dates, though. And any later than '74, Hawkwind probably would have been opening for Aerosmith. (An archive search turned up a question from Dan Ductor after he'd seen HW mentioned on the Aerosmith website, and verification from Larry Boyd that the timing was definitely correct, but no firm answers.) Anyone wanna look through old newspapers from spring '74 in the Richmond public library? ;^) -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From Michaelangelo68 at AOL.COM Mon May 13 21:07:19 2002 From: Michaelangelo68 at AOL.COM (Michael W Blackman) Date: Mon, 13 May 2002 21:07:19 EDT Subject: HW: tribute bands info wanted Message-ID: Great place to get a rush tho and if you're a carnivore someone will chuck a shrimp on the barbe for ya mate In a message dated Mon, 13 May 2002 10:15:34 AEDT, Jill Strobridge writes: > There was the OzHawks from that part of the globe where everyone walks > around upside down but I haven't heard from them for a while so they > might have disbanded now. > jill > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > Jill Strobridge > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Moonglum . > To: > Sent: Sunday, May 12, 2002 9:36 PM > Subject: HW: tribute bands info wanted > > > > Hi > > > > I am seeking information on Hawkwind tribute bands.

And as far as tracks like 'The Demented Man' and such go, it was the specialty of Dann Diefer (who when playing solo usu. billed himself as Diefer Dann) to do these old Hawkwind acoustic tracks. He also had The Watcher and We Took The Wrong Step Years Ago in his repertoire. I first saw him play as a solo artist (a mixture of original tunes and covers) years before Sun Machine formed, when he opened for Tim Blake at the Gallery Cafe (east suburban Cleveland) on his Magick tour. When would that have been? 1990 or so? Anybody ever know what happened to him? I've never seen him at any subsequent Cleveland space-rock gigs, so I imagine he moved away some time ago.

Free listening and/or downloading Message-ID: I have uploaded track 1 from the soon to be released "Beware The Charlatans" ( "I am the fourth beast ) CD see URL below> This album will continue the 'Uranium Zone" theme which began on the previous disc. For the most part it will be quite heavy, with occaissional dips into acoustic and synth oriented psychedelia. Even love is touched upon in this batch of material. Track 1 entitled 'Circle of Eternity', pays homage to philosophers from ancient times, and the never ending, ever pervading questions which they, and we still, try to answer. In the coming days I will be adding additional tracks. We are still finalizing the artwork, and so the complete CD as a package will not be available until about early to mid July.

First time I'd seen them since Imaginos (89?), but worth the wait. They took a packed Opera House apart. Excellent sound, superb musicianship. Just a shame it had to come to an end. Erics voice seemed ok and the band were obviously enjoying themselves. Heard a rumour that Allen had hurt his hand so couldn't do Joan Crawford, although how much credence should be given to that I wouldn't like to say. He did play a lot of guitar though. Anyway. If you have a chance of seeing them this week but haven't decided, make the effort. On this showing you won't be disappointed. Set List (can't remember the exact order): Burnin' For You OD'd On Life ETI Harvester of Eyes Pocket Cities On Flame Teen Archer Quicklime Girl Perfect Water See You In Black Golden Age of Leather ---- Would have been the highlight of the night for me except for : Last Days Of May (Absolutely superb. Best I've ever seen them do it. Lasted best part of 15 minutes. Allens solo was good, but Buck's was something else completely. He just gets better.) Godzilla (Only minor grumble was that the bass and drum solos checked the momentum of the gig a bit, and caused half the audience to shoot to the bar/netty!)

Entombed/New Bomb Turks - Night Of The Vampire/I Hate People split 7" (Swedish rock'n'roll deathers Entombed cover Roky Erickson & The Aliens' classic track, being a gloomy and foreboding statement of vampiric lust, fear of death seemingly closing in with each violent act of doom and despair... Crunching guitars with punk production makes this a classic version in the blackmetal dept! US garage hardcore and rock'n'roll punkband The New Bomb Turks do their own song, "I Hate People", a fast, short and violent statement of hate and utter human disgust, a raw slab of sheer noise and certainly a glorious chunk of man-hatin' punkrock! On the UK Earache label, 1995.) Cro-Mags - The Age Of Quarrel (Seminal 80's NYC hardcore band, having moved quite irregularly through a string of albums of varying degrees and lineups, 1986's "The Age Of Quarrel" along with 1992's "Alpha Omega" remain their probably two best known albums, the latter being an epic metal masterpiece mixing hinduist enlightenment, political protest and social awareness, whereas the former being an early, raw hardcore album with a far more gritty political and social stance and undertow. Tracks like "We Gotta Know", "Survival On The Streets" and "Don't Tread On Me" defined the Cro-Mags' militant and inner city survivalist stance in the harsh US political climate of the 80's and early 90's, still remaining a classic hardcore band to this day, having found more universal social concerns and religious convictions since.) Alan Davey - Chaos Delight (Black Widow, 2000, Davey's energetic and hard driven instrumental guitar-psychedelia veers towards science fiction soundtracks and souped up garage spacerock brimming with 'tronics, it should appeal to fans of Helios Creed or F/i. Coming with a Heavy Metal-style comic book with an intricately illustrated Conan-type story, the album is a nice addition for fans of Hawkwind, spacerock and psychedelia in general, though not gaining any extra points for creeping musical monotony.) Discharge - Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing (Most excellent early 80's UK punk, the raw anger and sheer brutality of tracks like "Protest And Survive" remain violent punk statements on this first album, a brutally aggressive slab of extreme hardcore dissent and hatred, of bare survival in the streets, of hatred of stupidity and idiots, and the immediate threat of nuclear holocaust killing millions of people during the blast, apocalypse warfare and raw survival driven by human disgust leaves little room for anything but the primal instinct to survive no matter what in the wake of suffering excruciating agony and pain... witnessing the inhuman butchery of heavy metal hell without an end to the madness of war and human extinction... Yes, millions of years ago you were a fucking ape... but, Discharge are still fucking excellent!) Captain Jesus And The Sunray Dream - All Thanks To The Lord Jesus Christ Amen (with Ron Bastard of Hawkwind on vocals and bass, it is rabid and deranged acid fuelled raw garage punkrock mostly involving the miraculous Christ himself, the band covering the oldie "I Wanna Be Me" along with several of their original numbers like "Number One", in addition to exploiting the classic MC5 song "Starship", as well as covering and retitling the infamous Sex Pistols' hit to "Anarchy In The USA" against all enforced regulations of Christ. Jumpin' Jehovah! This remains the better of their two LP's, however.) Chameleons - Strange Times (2CD, this classic Chameleons album, also being their final studio album, was released in 1985. Containing more anthemic and subtly sinister slices of psychedelia, highlighted by songs like the soaring "Mad Jack", and the creeping melodic and atmospheric mystery of "Swamp Thing". The bonus disc includes a cover of The Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows". Fans of the sweeping gothic psychedelia of Siouxie And The Banshees' mid-80's period, or even the more antique sounding acidpsych of early Screaming Trees, would fall for The Chameleons' original, heady and ethereal, and essentially British psychedelic sound emerging from the 80's "paisley" underground...) F/i - Five Crowns Of The Saxon King/From Poppy With Love 7" (A mindaltering and brutal avalanche of industrial punkrock, this 1995 RRR release sounds like a sinister and souped up "Interstellar Overdrive" or "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" as jammed out in a basement by a bunch of speedfreaks, building violently beyond Hawkwind speed and dangerously beyond the laws of boogie, so wear a crash helmet if you are high! Lots of crazy 'tronics, loadsa deafening guitar fuzz feedback, a rumbling punk bass, the B-side track also with distorted and spooky gothic vocals.) Gong - Planet Gong: Live Floating Anarchy '77 (Daevid Allen & Co. team up with the Here & Now band and produce a classic and scorching punkrock album with some great acid jams. Anthemic punk has never been as true as "Floatin' Anarchy" and "Opium For The People"... Probably along with "You" and "Angel's Egg", this record remains the creative and quality peak of Allen's classic 70's Gong output.) Blue ?yster Cult - Live 1976 (Closing with a killer version of Steppenwolf's "Born To Be Wild", and aside from including other classic B?C songs like "Stairway To The Stars", "Cities On Flame", "Astronomy", "Dominance And Submission" and "Don't Fear The Reaper", this somewhat raw quality performance contains lots of funny political stage banter from a very stoned Eric Bloom throughout the set, the band here captured at their peak, carrying the torch of MC5 and their ilk, it certainly is a well preserved 70's relic and a drunken yet spirited call to revolution...) Ant-Bee - Lunar Muzik (Master psychedelia by Billy James with a star studded crew of Glenn Buxton (Alice Cooper), Daevid Allen (Gong), Harvey Bainbridge (Hawkwind) & Jimmy Carl Black. Aside from an excellent Rolling Stones cover, the always wonderful "Child Of The Moon", "Lunar Muzik" is mostly dangerously drippy, wacky and goopy grade A psychedelia... Hell, "Return Of The Titanic Overture" is a bona fide masterpiece, and I'd sell you my grandmother if it wasn't so! Cover artwork by Syd Barrett himself, nonetheless... you've been warned!) H?sker D? - Everything Falls Apart And More (H?sker D?'s first album from 1980 is a definite hardcore classic, and the CD version comes with several bonus tracks. Uncompromisingly political and brutal in their early days, Bob Mould, Grant Hart and Greg Norton blasted through angry and brutally heavy hardcore punk 100 mph workouts like "From The Gut", "Signals From Above", "M.I.C." and "Lets Go Die", yet they shone through with the melancholy pop sensibilies of songs like "Do You Remember?" and "Everything Falls Apart", finely crafted pop something the band would later be swallowed by on albums like their final effort "Warehouse,Songs And Stories" from 1987, which recognized Mould & co. as forefathers of US indierock, as well as being remembered as hardcore pioneers.) -Charlie Yuga http://bloomingdales.dreamstation.com/pulp/ --- "A 'Bowie-Shag' is when you miss your vein." - Dr. Crabstix, Nazi Deadhead Commando And Paramedic Hippy Emergency General "You can take the Beatle out of Uncle Charlie, but you can't take Uncle Charlie out of The Beatles!" - Bastard Ceremonial Proverb Of The Immortal Blasphemers Of Sodom "There remains nothing but juggernauting the Apocalypse ?bersoul through the constant avalanche of dying bodies!" - Tubrok The Alterer, Paramilitary Ascendant Archangel Of Christ And Avenging Jehovah Of The Revalations "I actually saw Mot?rhead play at least seven fucking times, right, but I only remembered to bring my fucking woman along just once!" - The Cannibal Swinger, King Of Romania "Mahatma please go die of AIDS or something, you are a disgusting little man dreaming about the world like a filthy little kike, you are so queer, you're a flaming homosexual, you're a sissy, a liar and a thief.

Yep, an early-70s EML101. Alan Ravenstine of Pere Ubu used the same model (as did Ian MacDonald with Foreigner, but you didn't really want to know that, did you?). There's also a track on the F/i box set 'Out of Space / Out of Time' called "EML" which consists entirely of bandmembers noodling around with Grant's EML collection (in addition to the 100/101 monosynths, there was also an EML200 "expander module", EML300 programmable control-voltage source, EML400/401 analog sequencer, and a bizarre critter called the "Poly- Box" which would convert a monophonic synth sound into a polyphonic chord ... sort of ... Robin used one to great effect with his early-80s new wave band, the Girls). > It makes great spacy sounds :-) ... and does so better than any other (non-modular) vintage synth (IMO) except the Korg MS-20 and (of course!) EMS VCS3/Synthi. Robin is a very talented EML101 user (I own one, and it's not quite as easy, although it sure is equally rewarding, to coax those kind of sounds out of it, as the other two examples). -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From gordonreid9 at HOTMAIL.COM Fri May 17 16:17:09 2002 From: gordonreid9 at HOTMAIL.COM (Gordon Reid) Date: Fri, 17 May 2002 16:17:09 -0400 Subject: HW/Festival Tickets for Family & Freinds Message-ID: Hopefully someone from Hawkwind or someone to do with Hawkwind can help.

If the next Hawkwind album consists of: Dave song / Alan Song / Simon Song / Huw song / etc., it will probably be their most disappointing ever (not *worst*, but most disappointing - the current lineup leads to high expectations - flame away if you disagree!). However (yeah, I know I've said this before), if those guys are writing *together*, cross- fertilizing and warping/manipulating each others songs and ideas, it should easily be their best album since the 1970's. >Captain Jesus And The Sunray Dream - All Thanks To The >Lord Jesus Christ Amen >(with Ron Bastard of Hawkwind on vocals and bass, it I think that the lead singer for this band was the guitarist, not Ron.

Sadly, the long version of "Poppy" was only released on the now-vanished (master tapes & everything, apparently), German-only 'Paradise Out Here' LP.

Unfortunately I only caught the last part of Carl Palmer's set, but the guitar-driven versions of ELP's 'Toccata' and 'Fanfare for the Common Man' were impressive. Were they support for the whole tour or just a one-off for the London show? Blue ?yster Cult's show was a big improvement from their slightly lacklustre performance four years before. Allen Lanier no longer looks on death's door.. The sound was slightly muddy at the bottom-end, but no bad enough to spoil the gig - there were none of equipment problems that plagued the last show at this venue. Setlist had a couple of changes from the list John posted from Newcastle - we didn't get Teen Archer or See You In Black, but we did get Buck's Boogie and The Vigil.

And they did, on friday night! Great set (20 songs, plus "Ace of Spades" & "Overkill" encore). Lemmy's looking/sounding great. Normally, hearing a band cover "God Save the Queen" seems a bit overdone, like hearing a bar band cover of "Satisfaction" or something. But when you realize that it was Lemmy influencing Lydon, and (mostly) NOT the other way around, it makes a lot of sense. Phil Campbell's Line 6 stacks gain points for the blinky lights, but lose points for the thin sound and cheesy digital flanger (but this is Motorhead we're talking about ... who CARES what the guitar sounds like?). Keith Graakl is completely correct that Lemmy's 4004LK signature bass looks more burgundy than walnut under stage lights. At a couple times, at the right angle, I could make out the carved top, but only for a brief moment (my bandmates had to put up with me whining, "but I want miiiiine!"). And some older guy behind me yelled, "Play some Hawkwind!" ;^) (At least I thought I heard that ... if you're a listmember, I was the skinny longhaired guy bobbing [not quite harsh enough to be banging - my neck wasn't sore the next day] his head in front of you.) And yesterday evening, I went to check out a couple of local bands I'm friends with at the Hemlock Tavern, the coolest new bar in SF. Mike Desert, guitarst/singer of former Man's Ruin recording artists, the Jack Saints, paid tribute to the fact that 'Doremi Fasol Latido' is on the jukebox by throwing in Nik's "Watching The Grass Grow" intro ("We are the survivors ... the eternal survivors ...") before one of their songs (they also covered Radio Birdman's "What Gives" and "The Wind And More" by Roky Erickson). -Doug jasret at mindspring.com P.S. And on a completely unrelated subject, DON'T buy the 'Pink Jacket Required' Shagrat LP on Arkama. Paul Rudolph is NOT on it. If Twink is really on it, it's only because he dubbed himself on 30 years after the fact. The Shagrat album to get is the CD on Captain Trip, and the non- Shagrat tracks on the Arkama LP are the same as on 'Think Pink'. It takes a lot for me to say I was ripped off (I'm *glad* I shelled out the cash for 'Glastonbury 90', 'Text of Festival', even the pretty-awful 'Pinkwind' album), but in buying this album ... I was ripped off (see http://www.pinkfairies.fsnet.co.uk/twank.html and http://www.arsydd.btinternet.co.uk/lazfe.html).

The only Pink Fairies T-shirts I've ever seen on sale were at a 1986 gig in London, at the very start of the "Kill 'Em And Eat 'Em" re-re-re-re- reunion period. They weren't great (the T-shirts that is, the band were shit-hot) : a black shirt with a *tiny* pink logo saying "Pink Fairies Over London" over the heart area, and "Kill 'Em And Eat 'Em" in red on the back.

This is the band?s first tour outside North America, and it is an absolute MUST-SEE if you are a fan of Gabriel-era Genesis. The Musical Box re-creates original Genesis tours with incredible detail, both visually and sonically, and has developed a following of tremendously loyal fans who travel from around the world to see them perform. But The Musical Box is way beyond tribute ? this is time travel! After a limited tour of Quebec and Ontario with the Lamb show last year, The Musical Box is back with the Selling England tour. Denis Gagne, who performs as Peter Gabriel, has perfected Peter?s mannerisms and vocal styles to the point where one can easily believe that the audience has been transported back to 1974. His stories are repeated as Peter presented them, with identical inflections and gestures, and every costume and visual special effect have been painstakingly recreated. The band are incredible musicians who faithfully duplicate the original material without the technical problems that plagued the elaborate Genesis shows in the ?70?s. Words cannot describe the amazing experience of seeing The Musical Box. This is a truly mesmerizing concert! If you missed Peter with Genesis this is your best (and perhaps final) chance to re-live the Genesis experience. If you were fortunate to see Peter with Genesis, then you have a sense of how amazing this Musical Box show is. I guarantee that you will not regret bringing your friends who also loved classic Genesis to see The Musical Box in the following halls: May 26 in Bristol - Colston Halls May 27 in Wolverhampton - Civic Hall May 28 in Newcastle - City Hall May 29 in Sheffield - City Hall May 30 in Manchester - Apollo May 31 in Nottingham - Royal Centrel June 1 in London - Royal Albert Hall Good tickets remain for most shows. I am among many, many fans in the US who travel a fair distance to see The Musical Box perform in Canada. I regret that I cannot travel from the states to see The Musical Box re-create the amazing Selling England show in the same halls where Genesis performed with Peter, with many of the same fans who knew enough in 1973 to see Genesis at their best. Rumors persist that some original members of Genesis will attend some shows.

Lemmy Kilmister, lead singer and bassist for the 27-year-old British hard rock band Motorhead, reported his lucky hat missing after the band's concert Friday at San Francisco's Club Townsend. The hat, a hybrid pirate and cowboy hat the singer bought at a truck stop some years ago, was last seen backstage during the band's encore. Information concerning the whereabouts of the hat can be directed to Ace Trump, Web master of the official Motorhead Web site, www.imotorhead.com. Mr. Trump can be reached at acetrump at bigfoot.com. An unspecified reward is being offered. Kilmister went into mourning for the hat immediately following the band's last U.S. tour date Monday in Los Angeles and could not be reached for comment." -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From jkranitz at AURAL-INNOVATIONS.COM Sun May 26 07:45:20 2002 From: jkranitz at AURAL-INNOVATIONS.COM (Jerry Kranitz) Date: Sun, 26 May 2002 07:45:20 -0400 Subject: OFF: Aural Innovations Radio: New Kozmik Ken and Alchemical Radio shows Message-ID: http://Aural-Innovations.com Announcements (May 26, 2002): We've just uploaded new shows from The Kozmik Ken Experience and Alchemical Radio.

Some years ago I heard a great song on a John Peel radio show called "We're Old, We're Fat And We're Slow" by a band called My Dog Popper. (Blessings be upon John Peel, who tells you what the things he plays actually are.) I taped it and that's why it's stayed around.. Every now and then I try and find out some more about them, see if I can find more of their stuff, because the few bits I'v heard I think are great. There's a small handful of songs available on mp3 sites, and tracking them through the wilds of the Internet I've found that there's at least three albums knocking around, they have covered some Zappa songs, that they're Canadian, and that's about it.

Starting on disc 2, track 4, and continuing to the end, is the 1990-01-25 Nottingham (Live Legends) gig, the Bedrock show described in the liner notes. These tracks constitute one of the finest releases EVER from Dave Brock and company and you are required to go out and buy it now. Amazing stuff. To nitpick a bit, the sound does not seem to be much different from the *ahem* unofficial 'Temporal Adventures' disc, and it is missing the closing track 'Wind of Change' that appeared on 'TA' and the video (but which apparently also does not appear on the recent DVD release, as per previous posts by others here), but that is small stuff. All of disc 1 and the first 3 tracks of disc 2 seem to comprise a full concert from another date - it does not sound like the Leicester 1990-11-05 'Live in Space - The NeverEnding Story of the Psychedelic Warlords' gig as has been surmised here, but I suspect it is from the immediately following US tour, and the track list matches that for 1990-11-28 or one of the shows between 1990-12-02 and 1990-12-05, although the closer 'Reefer Madness' has again been lopped off. I am sure Bernhard will be letting us know the actual facts as soon as he listens to it. This gig is not quite as great as the Live Legends set (the recently departed Simon House being the big difference) but it is still very good and a worthy companion to the Nottingham show.

Cheers STEPHE Here's more info: it's on Hawkwind (Hawk) Records and is distributed by Voiceprint, catalog is HAWKVP12, the front artwork says 'Live 1990 Hawkwind', the spine says 'Hawkwind Live in Nottingham 1990'. Since it's Voiceprint the USA is stuck with the import version, your usual source for Voiceprint releases will undoubtedly come through. I got mine from AndyG at CDServices so I guess I got a head start - Amazon UK lists 'Hawkwind Live 1990' as due out on June 3, and Tower Records UK lists 'Nottingham Live 1990' as due out on June 10. The US branches of those sites don't even seem to have this on the radar yet.

Check In Time: From 15:00hrs on Friday 21st June 2002. Your journey will be navigated by our in flight DJs - Kozmik Ken and Satan?s Brew, who will guide you as we pass through the cosmos, by undiscovered - planets, and beyond!!!!! Fasten your seatbelts as we take flight: - Star-date Friday 21st June 2002 - Departure time: - 18:00 hrs Earth time. To start your journey you will experience Gun Law, who, perform the finest rock covers on planet Earth. Thundering through their set we will gain momentum, bringing you up to speed for the onset of Spacehead (piloted by "Mr. Dibs" Hawkwind's No1 back-line roadie). Mr. Dibs and his warriors of time will navigate your journey as we "Explode Into Space" with stage lighting and effects supplied by Neil Ward - Chaos Illumination, who recently travelled onboard the Hawkwind mother-ship. You will then be welcomed back to Earth by one of our in flight DJs where you can rock into the night before resting at your tents whilst time stands still ready for the second leg of your journey. Star-date Saturday 22nd June 2002 - Departure time - 11:OOhrs Earth time. One of our in flight DJs will welcome you onboard with some Earth sounds before you receive your injection of Stereovaccine, administered by Dr Cameron Seddon and partners, refreshing the parts other vaccines can not reach. After this you will be given a tonic of some of Earth's finest Street Legal rock covers, with Martin Harvey's drum solo to work you up to a frenzy. This will land you in the Doghouse where we will "See What `Appens", with ex Dumpy's Rusty Nuts bass player Robin and his crew leading the way. Will this be a rocky ride on their normal set or a guided tour of their new album .. ? Your seatbelts will now be checked by one of our in flight DJs prior to take off. From here on in Chaos Illumination will light the way as we go "Out There" onboard Mr Quimby's Beard. Who have recently returned from "Strange-trips" after, touring the U.S.A with Harvey Bainbridge, and Europe supporting Uriah Heep and Ozric Tentacles. You will discover "The Definitive Unsolved Mysteries" and experience "The Perplexity of Infinity". If you think you can continue your journey through time ex Hawkwind space bandit Harvey Bainbridge will pilot us single handed through "The Black Hole" to emerge the other side to "Free Fall" through "The Mutation Zone" to the "DNA Lounge" where you can do "Long Lines at the Double Helix Bar" maybe discovering a "1000% Solution", "Who's To Say"???? Now we dock with Bedouin to be taken on a "Vision Quest" piloted by Alan Davey, Danny Thompson (current Hawkwind members) and Glenn Povey, who knows we may even find inter-stellar time traveller Simon House smuggled onboard. Piloted by these "Masters of the Universe" you may encounter "Demons in Denial" whilst "Chasing the Dragon" through "Air Space" to the gates of the "Rock Palace". Who knows ???? Your E.T.A back on Earth is OO:OOhrs where one of our in flight DJs will rock the night away. Extra Features: St Johns Ambulance, C.M.A Tent, Band Merchandise, Tequila Tarts, Tattooist, Record Fair, Various Stalls, Raffle, M.A.G Stall, etc....... The aim of this psychedelic mind storm is to raise a donation for N.A.B.D. to enable disabled bikers to enjoy the freedom they deserve. We hope you join us on this inter-stellar journey and return home safely. The Sonic Rock Festival, Hamilton House Farm, Near Blackpool.

My wife had never heard of Hawkwind when we first met. Now we seem to discuss them every day (well I do anyway. She just listens LOL) . Hurry On Sundown is in her top 5 songs. Not bad for someone who loves Boney M. A good plug for the versatility of Hawkwind. Hawkwind has been an integral part of my life since I first heard them in the early 70's. It's amazing that I feel the same way about this band after so many years.

Sort of a power ballad genre for the 90s. Bad Religion are an old- school band that wound up being grandfathers of emo. >>(now YOU tell me who Pete Zorn is ... >>the only Zorn I know of is saxophonist/bandleader John) > >He's a sax player (isn't John Zorn also a sax player?)

Message-ID: Pete Zorn, is a well respected Sax player. especially round the folk folk/rock circuit. Must say I've seen him 3 times in the Richard Thompson band ( R.Thompson,D Thompson,D Mattocks & P Zorn) and they were fooking brilliant.... especially at Guildford festival where they ripped the stage apart thanks to Richard Thompson being on particularly good form that night.

He even >played on the Raphael Ravenscroft album! (Not that I've actually heard any >of that stuff.) Funny...I just went to allmusicguide.com to look up Raphael and this is what I found....so P. Zorn *could* have been famous! :) Of course, R.R. is more notable to me for his association with Pink Floyd and Robert Plant, although I was well aware he played on Baker Street. Grakkl (FAA) Raphael Ravenscroft has played saxophone (and sometimes French horn and winds) for artists ranging from Marvin Gaye to Pink Floyd, but he will likely be remembered best for just one song -- Gerry Rafferty's late '70s mega-hit "Baker Street," on which he played what was probably the most well-known saxophone part in an entire decade of popular music. Ironically, his work on that session came about by sheer chance. Gerry Rafferty had written "Baker Street" with the long instrumental break in mind, but without a specific instrument to play it, and he and producer Hugh Murphy experimented with different sounds before Murphy suggested a sax -- their first choice for the session was, however, was Pete Zorn, a British session musician who had played with Andy Bown and other artists. Zorn was no longer playing much sax and suggested a list of other players, and Raphael Ravenscroft's name was distinctive enough to get him the call. Ravenscroft turned the break into a long, moody vignette that just hung there on the radio, and was as responsible as the song's lead guitar part and melody for making it into an international hit, and Rafferty into a star.
