Returned the long way round via family and some archaeology. Both Astoria and Bristol have been fully covered but, nonetheless, here are some personal comments. First thanks to the band for keeping the tour going despite difficult conditions. I think everyone had gone down with flu by the time they got to Bristol and I noticed that Kris came onstage before the show distributing huge bottles of water to keep everyone going. Checked out the venue early and found it without too much trouble thanks to the directions on the web page. In fact I arrived there more or less as the bus did and walked past in time to see Alan and Arthur being led away up some mysterious Bristolian backstreets - I assume to find some accommodation! Bristol is a nice venue - smaller than I expected and with too many steps to trip you up at the bar but a tall ceiling so the light show came over well. The sound desk appeared to be round the side of the stage behind the speakers so there was definitely more white noise than at London, however a couple of quickly contrived ear plugs took care of that and I got a good position in the centre. Time Captains is a good track to start with - Hawkwind enough and with Arthur Brown's presence to immediately grab the audience attention. Most people round me didn't recognise it but clearly felt they should and with the light show it has quite an audience wake up effect . Followed with Master of the Universe which almost everybody knows and the reaction is "Hey, wow, yeah". It really is - honest! Gremlin was fantastic - especially the Astoria version and Time is - well, different. Almost a ballad but strangely compelling because of its difference - slightly alien in a way and Watcher expands on this with a Hawkwind track that most people realise they know and had completely forgotten about! Out of the Shadows I particularly enjoyed at Bristol and I liked the middle section (has it been adjusted? I heard no techno!) - just a rather nice electronic sequence that could perhaps have done with an underlying layer to hook into (I love multiple layers of sound - you can choose which bit you want to listen to while the rest just gets on with creating the effect). Chronoglide Skyway doesn't go on long enough IMO - the glorious sweeping melody gets played once and then stops abruptly when you want it to keep going! Steppenwolf is mesmorising and was particularly good at the Astoria. Arthur dresses the part and although there is something OTT in the howling this is unquestionably redeemed by his truly powerful spoken rendition of "a wolf man who walks alone in the gas lamp shadows of the streets at night". Curiously I find his presence more compelling when he is standing still than when moving - you watch him and it's very difficult to look away! I was also pleased that not having to read the lines gave him more of a chance to perform. Thoroughly enjoyable and I have to say that this is one of the tracks where I'll feel deep regret if this version were never to be seen or heard again. For the rest - the new tracks were interesting though I felt that Sun Ray was everyone playing exactly the same beat and there needed some variety - but maybe this is just me. Assassins of Allah was terrific in London with the additional keyboards but lost momentum rather in Bristol however Assault and Battery/Golden Void with light show is always something to enjoy and Where Are They Now has an extraordinary choral almost nostalgic feel to end the set on. Angela Android is an oddity - the band seem to enjoy it - it's fast and there's plenty of variety - it's fine but I'd like to hear it again. Silvery Machine was pretty chaotic at Bristol but it really didn't matter since everyone on stage seemed happy to have made it through the evening and even to have recovered somewhat - certainly enough to be laughing around each other. Which was good and I was glad to see it! I'm sorry I only managed two gigs - but it was definitely worth doing and while Bristol probably wasn't as polished and smooth a performance as London the variety not only of the new tracks but the way the older material is finding a new presentation is very interesting. Thanks to the band and everyone else involved! Greetings to everyone I met! jill ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jill Strobridge ----------------------------------------------------------------- From IainFerguson at AOL.COM Mon Jun 2 05:08:13 2003 From: IainFerguson at AOL.COM (Iain Ferguson) Date: Mon, 2 Jun 2003 05:08:13 EDT Subject: BOC-L Digest - 31 May 2003 Death Of Band Message-ID: I know, I was pissed when I wrote it... emotionally charged at the time... best suggestion is basically dont write anyting until much later......

(which Pearlman produced for Blue Oyster Cult). " While Pearlman was BOC's producer at the time of Reaper, the SNL skit was not portraying him - rather they were portraying producer Bruce Dickinson (not to be confused with Iron Maiden's lead singer). The page has several interesting, and seemingly self-serving statements. Here's an interesting one: " As songwriter he is best known for his association with the Blue Oyster Cult, with whom he virtually defined the whole Heavy Metal genre, writing about half of their catalog, culminating in their 1989 conceptual song-cycle, Imaginos: An album, which has, according to Google, launched 3 new religions and more than 4,500 obsessive ?All About Imaginos? Web Sites. Ironically enough (for a founder of EMusic), Metallica recently recorded "Astronomy," one of Pearlman's Imaginos songs, for their notoriously ultra-Napsterized, Garage Inc." Gee, I wonder if any of the MUSICIANS involved with BOC had anything to do with it's success...

We have installed the new mailing list server at listserv.ispnetinc.net to handle this (and some other) mailing lists. The BOC-L mailing list will be migrated from listserv.spc.edu to listserv.ispnetinc.net. We're expecting to make the move this Friday (Jun 6, 2003) between 10 PM and 12 AM (EDT). [Yes, that's a 2 hour window, not a 14 hour one. :-)] Mail sent to the various boc-l email aliases on listserv.spc.edu will be automatically forwarded to listserv.ispnetinc.net for a period of time. However, email commands sent to listserv at listserv.spc.edu (for example, to unsubscribe or to change your user options) will need to be sent to to the new listserv at listserv.ispnetinc.net address. In addition, the web-searchable archives of the boc-l list will move to http://listserv.ispnetinc.net/archives. You'll also be able to manage your subscription options from that web page as well. I know that the BOC-L list address (and archive address) is published on some web sites that some of you have control over. Could you please ensure that those sites are updated with the new list subscription and archive details? If you experience any difficulties related to this conversion, feel free to contact either myself (ben at tmk.com) or Terry Kennedy (terry at tmk.com) at the address below. Terry's the one who's going to be making the actual move, so something that looks like it's an abject failure might want to go to him with a CC to me. If there are any questions about this pending move, please contact me (off-list). Similarly, questions after the list is moved and don't be shy about sending a "Thank you, kind sir" to Terry once the move is complete. :-) Ben Cohen moderator, BOC-L From keithb at CINESITE.CO.UK Thu Jun 5 04:37:32 2003 From: keithb at CINESITE.CO.UK (Keith Barton) Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2003 09:37:32 +0100 Subject: OFF: Re: OFF Message-ID: "Captain Bl at ck" wrote: > Testing 2.......................?

I do, of course, refer to the mighty Blue Oyster Cult. Hmm... They're my favourite band ever, so I hate to write this... For all you BOC fans, you know that track that Bonnie Tyler covered? Hmm.. That's right... "Goin' through the motions" Great song isn't it? Off "Spectres" I believe. WHY THE HELL DIDN'T THEY PLAY IT? TONIGHT, THEY MAY AS WELL HAVE DONE. They played all the songs you'd like them to do - the big three, Harvester, Career of Evil, Joan Crawford (Alan looked like he was playing in a pub in East London somewhere), and encored with Astronomy. Well, whoopee ****ing do. They were just going through the motions tonight. Dull as arse. Watching the audience was more entertaining - throughout every song, they all stood there, just watching. No involvement at all. Then cheered for the end of each song. And I don't blame them. Tonight was rubbish. I've seen BOC every time they've played the UK since (about) 1983, and this was the worst I've seen them - worse than the Club Ninja tour whan Girlschool blew them away at Newcastle City Hall. (admittedly Girlschool were taller...) :-) Fantastic songs, played badly tonight - and when they played well they played like they didn't give a rat's arse. "Hey, we're at the end of the tour, so we'll get the notes in the right order and then bugger off home to the good ol' US of A". (Buck didn't even have the decency to hit a bum note during Buck's Boogie!) I'm very disappointed. Particularly as I pointed this out to a couple of people who just said "Yes, but I've never seen them before and I've wanted to for ages, I thought they were fantastic!" No "Last Days Of May", no "In Thee", and the classics were done by rote. Yes, I bought the T-shirt, yes it was better than, erm, something... Richard's verdict? One out of five. V. poor. And I'll go to bed crying, because they're the greatest band in the world and they can do so much better than that. :-( Cheers, Rich.

I've seen them 13 times before then (every UK tour bar the '75 one, my first time in '78) and this was up there with the best of them to me. I was up near the front and the band were clearly into it and enjoying themselves, as were the crowd - most of whom seemed to be singing along to most songs (or was that just me??? ahem!). Setlist was good (Subhuman or Tattoo Vampire would have been welcome but I'm hoping for those at my other 2 gigs this tour - tomorrow & Wednesday) and Career of Evil was a nice surprise! I guess my only real criticism (as usual) was the ever-present drum solo - at least there's an opportunity to head to the bar/bog!

First off, and i am not a doctor so don't take this as fact, but the band were obviously jet lagged, NYC to Mk in under 48 hours and then playing a gig, i know i would be F#%*d, and that's without having to do a gig. However like troupers they gave a good performance, but it was always on auto pilot, i thought that there were to many empty seats, ( i strolled down to a seat in the second row that had not been sold no problem), the evening just did not get going, the support even said that he thought that he would be performing to a set of furniture. If anyone is interested, the set was Dr. Music ETI Stilts Harvester Burnin Shooting Shark Tattoo Vampire Divine Wind Cities In Flame I Love The Night Godzilla Reaper Red & the Black Graham P.S.

I take that as a sign they'll get better as the tour progresses. I'm seeing them in Manchester on Wed. Remember when US bands always used to start their UK tours at the Cornwall Colosseum in St Austell? Because it was too far for any London-based music journalists to get to. >However like troupers they gave a good performance, but it was always on auto >pilot, i thought that there were to many empty seats, Empty seats is a worry; if not enough punters turn up, might be longer before they tour here again. >Dr. Music >ETI >Stilts >Harvester >Burnin >Shooting Shark >Tattoo Vampire >Divine Wind >Cities In Flame >I Love The Night >Godzilla >Reaper >Red & the Black Interestingly different setlist to the last tour. Divine Wind is appropriate post 9/11 (The lyrics could easily be about Osama) Nice to see Shooting Shark (one of my favourite later BOC) songs *and* I Love the Night. They had better do Astronomy in Manchester on Wednesday.

First time seeing the Surgeons as a power trio, first time at the Baggot Inn, first time at a club gig since the NYC smoking ban went into effect, and probably a couple more firsts if I wanted to think about it a bit more. The Baggot Inn is a cozy little place, and since I don't smoke, made all the more pleasant by the smoke-free atmosphere. Pleasant enough, in fact, that I might make more of an effort to overcome my usual disinclination to go to bars to see bands. The setlist was nice mix of old and new (and available on the Cellsum website): Dr. Music, Name Your Monster, Cities On Flame , Il Duce, State of Emergency, Time Will Take of You, Language of Love, Godzilla Overall the show was pretty good. There were a few rocky moments - starting with Dr. Music when Albert's mike stand kept falling over forcing him to grab it and reset it while playing and singing or sing with his chin on his chest. That got sorted out by the end of the song, though. There was a false start on one song somewhere as well, and in a few places a little rust showed through. Then, of course, there was the anti-climax of what I think was a bass drum-pedal giving way on the intro to Godzilla making the question, "What is it, what does it sound like?' have an answer of a sort of muffled thwack. However, such minor bits of equipment failure pale next to the legendary Pyramid Club gig of '95. That aside, though, the show was quite good. I was interested in seeing how they worked as a trio, and the answer is very well, thank you very much. Deb turned in a more than creditable job on guitar, no mean feat since she's filling two complete sets of shoes. David was as always a pleasure to hear and Albert remains a joy to watch in action. One of the high points of the evening was Il Duce, a song which was new to me and which I believe I heard Albert say that BOC had recorded for the Fire of Unkown Origin album, but which wasn't released. Il Duce is a David Roter song, and I was sorry to hear that he was no longer with us - the latest in a list of BOC/BS/Bouchard collaboraters to pass away. Here's hoping the Brain Surgeons record this track for their next album. This was the first show in the latest tour, and it promises to be a good one. With just another couple shows under their belts, the rust will be knocked away leaving nothing but the steel beneath. Jeff-Bob says check it out.

What happened at the Pyramid Club? That was the gig where the power went out completely, what, 2 or 3 times? And the last time they couldn't seem to get it back on. So I seem to remember Albert just playing an extended drum solo, since you could hear the drums, while Deb gave a virtuoso air-guitar performance in which the rest of the band joined in. To add to the effect, the drag-queen (no, really) in charge kept running back and forth trying to get the power back on and the sound going again. IIRC, the set was pretty much abandoned at that point. It's a memory I will always treasure, since I had moved to NYC in Jan. of 95 and that was one of the first times, if no the first, I had gone to see a club gig.

I wonder if Al had ever contemplated adding Dr. Music to the Surgeons' sets back then? My only problem with the song is that it sounds so pop metal. And I can't help lumping "Going down to Nassau Coliseum...we're gonna kick some booty" in with the rest of the lyrics. Heh. Imagine if it were played on acoustic, slow and sinister, with "Feel the rhythm in the sound of her pain" delivered by Deb's threatening whisper. Kind of like the acoustic "Name Your Monster" (which I actually think works better as a rocker.) How. Peace.

T.V. version of the underground music magazine. Haven't seen a copy for years and thought it had fallen by the wayside, obviously not.... Why's it Hawkwind-related? They've reviewed and interviewed the band several times over the years and were/are staunch supporters of the psych/underground/free festival music scene, championing bands such as the Ozrics, Bevis Frond, The Cardiacs, Omnia Opera, Poisoned Electrick Head and many others when nobody else in the music press gave a stuff. They had the refreshingly positive policy of only reviewing demo tapes if they liked them, but often more critical of established acts, may of the recommendations I followed up from there proved very worthwhile. The comic strip adventures of Wiggle in earlier issues even featured a cartoon Dave Brock piloting a traveller's bus to a free festival in outer space. With a talking hamburger as a passenger.

These systems are clever enough to generate the messages but not flexible enough to add extra tags to subject lines. Usually, the user gets an option to exclude certain recipients from the automated reply. Its one of the dangers of using your work email to subscribe to mailing lists - you get discovered when somebody complains about unsolicited emails while you are on holiday.

Astralwerks/EMI will release the single "Tour De France 03" July 8, with the album "Tour De France" due to follow on July 22. The German group is working on the final mix of the new album at its own Kling Klang studios in Dusseldorf, according to a statement. The album will be the band's first all-new full-length since 1986's "Electric Cafe" (Elektra), and only its second in more than 20 years. The group's most recent release was the 1999 single "Expo 2000," inspired by the German Exposition of that year. Kraftwerk has also made music for the Tour de France before -- an EP of that name was released on vinyl in 1983, featuring the title track and three others. -- www.billboard.com From jkranitz at AURAL-INNOVATIONS.COM Sat Jun 14 05:44:06 2003 From: jkranitz at AURAL-INNOVATIONS.COM (Jerry Kranitz) Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2003 05:44:06 -0400 Subject: OFF: Aural Innovations Radio: New Space Rock and Alchemical Radio shows Message-ID: http://Aural-Innovations.com Announcements (June 7, 2003): We've just uploaded new shows from Aural Innovations Space Rock Radio (show #80) and Alchemical Radio (show #40).

ARCHITECTURAL METAPHOR news: [from Greg Kozlowski] We are in the process of releasing a new live CD. It features our new drummer Pat Murphy (from Dinosaur Jr) and is all instrumental. It includes new songs, old classics, a cover tune or two and some improv jams. We will be pressing up a limited number of CDR's w/full color covers. We intend to send this out to labels to see if there is any interest. If you are interested in getting an advance copy of the CDR, please mail me at arcmetgreg at yahoo.com. Price to be determined.

Intersting venue, too -- stage was under an overpass. Cling's set of covers and original ripped along nicely, although pweople bailed when the fireworks went off ahead of schedule. The Brain Surgeons took to the stage around 11 o'clock and played a healthy mix of tBS and BOC, in non-sequential order: State of Emergency, Krakatoa, Il Duce (a lost Roter/BOC tune), Frankenstein, Astronomy, "acoustic" the red and the black, Name your Monster, Vera Gemini, Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll, Time Will Take Care of You, Godzilla, with the help of Ace Bouchard and the Ace-ettes (really 2 boys standing right next to the stage through the set, and thoroughly bewildered by God... zilla), and for a special treat, the surgeons were joined by static cling to stomp through Dominance and Submission and One more Cup of Coffee (with al on mandocaster). A rough set due to microphones not workign and working at will esp. on Deborah's nubmers and Cities on Flame (whcih for the first time had an impromptu drum solo due to mic problems). "Il Duce" features the first number where David H. took the main vocals! and it's a fun lil' stomper that even my sister enjoyed. I dug it and my family, who came along to check out the canaldays, didnt entirely mind the rock and roll (both mom and dad said they enjoyed Albert's drumming... it's a start!)

I used that because he likes powermetal and LC seems to have a good power-metal sound.

"Palace Springs was a major part of reviving my interest in HW and bridges the old & new quite well; thus, probably a good choice for either lapsed veterans or others who have a more "vintage" aesthetic. However the number that made my 16yo daughter prick her ears up was the title track of QS&C.

Doug thought that this was a good idea and, in a sense, that's partially what "Ambient Annarchists" was - one vocal CD, one instrumental CD although without the US material,it wasn;t quite what I envisaged. I suppose, to get Hawkwind across to this audience you'd have to cite the "White Zone" album, which they called a chill-out album, and maybe that would be the ley to open the door, although I think something more electronic would be better. Which of course takes us neatly onto the "UK Electronica '83" performance which was meant to be exactly that - an electronic set by Hawkwind for an electronic music audience - only the PA blew up and that was the end of that idea. We sold loads of Harvey's "Red Shift" to the synth music audience - which says something. Have I rambled on too long - sorry, folks.

Uh huh. Ideally, of course, the guitar would be played by Dave :-) Back on the topic of the thread: I typically use Warrior and It Is The Business -- I can never guess which one's going to appeal. Except when I know the person's a rocker or a Motorhead fan, in which case it's gotta be Space Ritual. (For a hard-core 80's electrobeat fan, I'd probably try Quark -- but I don't tend to travel in the same circles as them :-) I did work with someone in about '89-'90, who was a rabid Depeche-Mode fan.

Ideally, of course, the guitar would be played by Dave :-) Hmm ... two thoughts on that: It seems to me now that both "rock" people and "techno" people are much more into freely mixing the genres (and instrumentation) than they were in the 90's (try a google search on the term "electroclash"), so this might be a good time for just that (although the currently-trendy stuff is all done with either [yuck] laptops or cheapo Casios & grooveboxes which aren't really my style [gimme *real* analog - EMS, Oberheim, ARP, EML, modulars, blah blah]). And ... does anyone else here have an opinion on the Hawkwind (Brock/Davey/Chadwick) track on 'Family Tree' (can't remember the title, sorry)? To me, it sounds like a 100% laptop creation (of the "no real instruments were abused in the recording of this track" variety), and really doesn't do much for me (I'd prefer IitBotFtbD, and I'm not even much of a fan of that album). Maybe a good guitar overdub would turn my opinion on that one around :^). >Back on the topic of the thread: I typically use Warrior and It >Is The Business -- I can never guess which one's going to appeal. Like someone else said, "horses for courses". I think the divergence of opinions of "favorite HW albums" on this list is enough to prove that it might be a different album for each potential fan. Still, I'd think that it would be hard to go wrong with a good compilation of the UA material, be it 'Roadhawks' (one of the 3 HW albums I bought the day after I first heard them on the radio!), 'Stasis', Cleopatra's 'Psychedelic Warlords', 'Sonic Boom Killers', etc. >I did work with someone in about '89-'90, who was a rabid >Depeche-Mode fan. He didn't take to HW at all ... but oddly >enough, he quite liked Hype. I can easily believe that. 'Hype' is *totally* a new wave pop album, even moreso than 'Hawklords/25 Years On'. (Although I don't quite see a DM connection since it doesn't have any weepy ballads for depressed, "oh I'm so misunderstood", 14-year-old girls.) I had a similar experience when I was listening to the excellent John Cale / Brian Eno album, 'Wrong Way Up'. When my flatmate got home, the first words out of her mouth were, "WHAT are you listening to? I thought you hated Depeche Mode!". -Doug jasret at mindspring.com P.S.

I just found out last night that my father in law, will be requiring an invasive surgery on August 5th which will require a stay in hospital of at least 3-5 days. I can not in good faith leave my wife at such a critical time when she will be needing me most, as this is not just a 'routine' procedure. I have been practicing the Alien Dream, Assassins of Silence stuff as well as preparing what I had hoped would be the best ever Sloterdijk along with Jay Adcock. I can not tell you how much I wanted to play this festival. Jay in particular has invested a tremendous amount of time and money into the preparations for our trip, and for this I feel very uncomfortable, because I know he arranged his vacation time around the festival. I also apologize to Michael Blackman ( Alien Dream), and to The Assassins of Silence. To Phil Smith, I hope you understand. I wish Jayl could go and perform as Sloterdijk without me, but i know he won't, and I feel upset even though I know I am doing the right thing. Thanks for supporting Sloterdijk. I hope this won't cause any sour feelings in the band either.

I was squatting in an empty apartment flat and selling a certain indole based hallucinogen. These were simpler times ? I got by with a few changes of clothes, a mattress, a stereo, and some lp records. The few folks I was dealing with would come by we?d do a hit (as we called it then) and I would put my newest musical find Hawkwind ? X in Search of Space (again, as we called it then) and by the start of the second side, the curious effects of the drug and the music would be playing together quite nicely. Those sessions made some strong converts I don?t do much proselytizing these later years. I found Electric Teepee was easily appreciated by a wide variety of non-initiates. For me, its balance of the more modern davey-spacey synth stuff and reworked guitar power-chords of old Hawkwind classics made it very approachable. But hey, that was ten years ago. If I have a sci-fi geek or literati in the house I hit them with the 1-2 punch of Astounding Sounds and Quark. Who can resist Spirit of the Age? or Steppinwolf? But is that representative Hawkwind? As I approach the 30th anniversary of my first hawkwind show (11/26/73) I have found that to fulfill my needs for fresh space rock I have had to turn to the younger 3rd gen artists. If you were to hang at my place now-a-days, you?d be hearing much more of Anubian Lights, Farflung, and Starfield; and I?d mix in In Search of Space here and there, pointing Hawkwind out as the progenitors.

Pretty neat that he kept the Hawkwind track until the last play of his stint - leaving his audience with that memory. I suppose that the BBC (who own Radio2 for those outside the UK) stipulated Silver Machine because it would be a track that at least some of the general audience might recognise. All we need now is a new studio album for him to publicise.

It's the Chris Columbo Jazz Festival and the stage will be righton the boardwalk betweeen Trump & The Convention Center. The whole set will be 20 minutes. I have the setlist, which is primarily all blues and R&B. This is a paying gig and I can offer some decent pay to anyone interested in backing me up. There will be quite a bit of press etc, so this is a good gig, I can assure you. Here are the instruments I am seeking: djembe or bongos, conga etc. ( hand held percussion ) Bass & drumkit: If a trap drummer is interested in doing this, then I will need a bassist as well. A kit will be provided by the festival, however you will require you own cymbals, snare etc. Contact me off list if interested at: sloterdijk at msn.com may of the tunes can be heard at: http://theoneeyedbishops.iuma.com _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail From dplaw at IC24.NET Mon Jun 23 07:18:19 2003 From: dplaw at IC24.NET (Dave Law) Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2003 07:18:19 -0400 Subject: HW: my nane is D.D.D.Dave Brock Message-ID: hi there, don't know whether other group members are aware of this but i just found this very interesting remix at http://b00mb0x.org/front/2003_04.html and click on the hawkslimmed link on the right hand side of the page! regards dave From eddiejobson at HOTMAIL.COM Mon Jun 23 07:32:26 2003 From: eddiejobson at HOTMAIL.COM (eddie jobson) Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2003 11:32:26 +0000 Subject: HW: my nane is D.D.D.Dave Brock Message-ID: Take away the vocals and I love it.

Its out there on the edge of the cosmos, real space rock da house stuff. Actually, Eminem's strange rap style - almost singing - fits very well with lots of different music. The challenge is now there for those people who have the tools and technology to do this sort of thing. What other amazing mixes can people come up with - its the new rock 'n roll.

I can't plausibly claim the talent to describe just how much fun it was and so I hope you folks will indulge me: We arrived at Newquay in the early afternoon and after a quick trip back into town for suntan lotion lest radiation burns strip our skin from our bones and destroy the mood. Courtesy of Nick Lee's savage approach to road sense, we made it to Boots, or some facsimile thereof. This guy really doesn't deserve to be in the dungeon, but he's readheaded, and we can't make exceptions. We got changed for the wedding. I have to say that I never really expected to see Hawkwind wearing a kilt (and I still haven't, but I wore one) but there was a certain atavistic aura on the day and this Solstice was always destined to be different. Slightly late to the ceremony we discovered that the man in the cassock marrying the clearly preternaturally happy couple was none other than a certain Mr. Brown. After a savage indictment of modern mores (well, OK, in fact a very amusing speech) Rich and Arin took turns to make their own declarations to each other with the exchange of rings, and it was very moving. It was good to see some of the other hardcore again, although their foul flesh-eating habits became all too apparent during the main course when whole herds of buffalo had apparently been slaughtered for their slightest whim. The beef and Yorkshire pudding was rather nice too. Only a swim with the sharks (and Chris W.) in the pools of the Hotel California managed to ease the pull of gravity after Cornish ice cream, the production of which undoubtedly required cows to be tortured for weeks. We then gathered downstairs. Things were very relaxed and laidback and ably assisted by Merrick and Julie's Rocket Ship, a wine fermented apparently for special occasions. A bottle seemed to be under every table, or certainly the ones I fell under. I guess I'd better try to remember the setlist for Bernhard's archives though so over to Gig Report Mode: Nope, failed, but with a bit of prompting from Colin and a memory reboot, the lights start flashing once more: At the special request of the Bride and Groom they opened with Love in Space with Rich and Arin trying out an, errrr, new dance for this out there on the floor. This was followed by You Shouldn't do That which sounded much more like the Roadhawks version than the one from Tiz the Biz days and this was confirmed by the Seeing It As You Really Are encore, right down to the whooshy seque that marks the intro to Silver Machine on that album. Lighthouse came next, a Timless version, this time sung by Richard and it worked just fine without Tim, though I hope we'll see him back there soon. The venerable Mr.Brown then entered to much cheering and the band launched into the beat for Time Captains. The drumbeat was held for at least the length of time on Arthur's album and probably longer, allowing for the usual time/space distortion on the M&J Rocketship. An excellent rendering of the song followed with folks edging up towards the dance floor. Take Me To Your Leader mellowed things out again and was followed by Assassins of Allah. The timorous encroachment onto the dancefloor became a full scale invasion at this point with the dancefloor covered (well, OK, the band already had half of it) by the time the Space Is Their Palestine techno riff got into its stride. There were a few variations and some playing with the toys during this which kept it going. Rich's relatives were up for a bop and his mother confided to me that she "thought they'd be much noisier". Then back into the Hassan riff. By this point the dancers were melting and the band had gone into the red on the heat down there, so everyone took a break for a drink and some cool. When they came back, Arthur was in full Steppenwolf regalia and they proceeded to do an amazing rendering of the song. If Calvert's ghost was there he'd see that his work goes on. I'd never quite got the German "I don't know what it is that I'm saying" lyric in the middle but Arthur's acting of a drunk German finally closed the connection for me. Some impressive wolf-howling got in there too. If there is a tape, then I guess it'll sound like the Glastonbury dogs were at it again. No seagulls made it past the door though. Then into Angela's Android. The start of this reminds me a little of a much older song (Rock and Roll Disgrace I keep thinking) and it does sound a little like a speeded up 50's riff. This was an awesomely blanga version though and the dancefloor took another pounding, and a little beer spillage. We were cheering the end when the band looked around and saw the vibe took off again into an impromptu jam based on the riff from the song, with Simon, Alan and Dave taking turns playing around with it. The blanga level went up to eleven and a half and it let Alan let rip the way he does on LSD from Business Trip only more so. If the new album has anything like this on it, some of us are going to wear out our CD players. Assault and Battery and Golden void were next with the latest variation on Void's End segued on. Always great to hear these. Finally, one I'd waited a long long time to see live: Where Are They Now? Well OK, I was at the Astoria, but it's been a long time. I've run out of superlatives but you get the picture. I hope this one gets extended too and an appearance on the album certainly wouldn't go amiss from where I was standing. Truly a great day and night and something I'll remember when I'm down to my final brain cell. Everyone I saw or spoke to was having a great time. Thanks Arin and Rich for putting it all together. Best wishes for that joint timetrip into the future. As for the rest of you: if you haven't seen and heard the latest lineup and setlist then you'd be better cutting off your own heads with a buzzsaw than missing the Hawkwind Festival this year (don't try this at home) - book your tickets now or we skewer the seagull. Hunter.S.Timpson (Shoe providers to the Royal Family since at least last week) P.S Bernhard: the lineup was Barton, Brock, Brown, Chadwick, Davey, House, in no particular order except alphabetical. Personally, I think the new guy shows promise.

And on today's other subject, a few off the top of my head: "Brainstorm" - Lime-flavor "energy drink" (of the Red Bull variety, I think Hansen's makes one in that flavor) & Tequila. "Uncle Sam's On Mars" - Southern Comfort & Grenadine with a splash of cream soda, garnished with a marischino cherry with an american flag poked through it (instead of the traditional tropical-drink umbrella). "Aubergine that Ate Rangoon" - Sake infused with eggplant juice (can you get juice from an eggplant?!?) and/or garnished with an eggplant sliver. "Jack of Shadows" - Jack Daniels and cola (preferably shoplifted rather than purchased). "Flying Doctor" - Foster's served in prescription bottles (or better yet, Foster's with the *contents* of random prescription bottles dissolved into it). "Levitation" - Blue Curaco (to match the limited-edition vinyl) floating (layered, like a black & tan) over light rum. "Elric the Enchanter" - Vodka (preferably thousand-year-old), brandy & dragon's milk (cream will work if the dragon cannot be safely milked). "Secret Agent" - Martini, shaken not stirred. Do they make an equivalent of Goldenschlager (the schnapps that has gold flakes in it) with the less-expensive precious metal that could be used to mix a "Silver Machine"? I assume that folks ordering Seagrams & 7-Up at the Hawkfest will have to order it as a "Seven BY Seven", not a "Seven AND Seven" ...

Great to hear about the Hawkwedding and congrats to the honoured couple. Thanks for the report Mike. I hope the security there was better than at the Prince's birthday party. Although if Mike had worn his Urban Guerilla outfit, then an Osama costume might not have been so out of place there either. So, Hawkwind is now listed as headliner at the Herzberg Classics fest in central Germany Aug. 15-17...which is also mentioned casually on hawkwind.com without details. This fest is a 'make-up' for last year's cancelled Kloster Cornberg festival. Of course, Kalle Becker (Think Progressive) is also running the last (sadly) of a long line of Burg Herzberg fests this summer, with Nektar, Man, Caravan and a couple other Classic Rock acts from the equally-distant past. Question: what will be the nature of CD sales at the Summer HW- fest?...will Voiceprint have a booth including all their releases, and will AndyGee be offering things of similar, but non-HW- specific, ilk? A quick note...in the upcoming Farflung reissue box (is it?), I think I remember reading that their studio rendition of "Robot" is to be included (originally intended for The Myth of Solid Ground official release, which never happened), so that patient folks can wait a bit and not have to scour the blackmarket for said track. Did anyone see the article about how somebody has theorized that the Stonehenge circle, as well as being astronomically-aligned, is also a representation of the female genitalia? Stonehenge Decoded indeed. Uf Wiiderluege...Grakkl (FAA) P.S. The Golden Void: Tequila, Metamucil and prune juice? (although maybe Assault & Battery would be even more appropriate a name?) (P.P.S. For the German speakers, a hint...to void = den Darm entleeren; Metamucil = ein Getraenk gegen Verstopfung) P.P.P.S. Wow...Big Amongst Sheep will play at Summerfest?! Have they existed in the recent past, or is this just a one-off reunion after nearly 20 years of hiatus? I'm looking forward to the Big Night Out in the Big, Bad Universe anyway!

As Mike pointed out it does seem odd trying to write a review of a wedding, but here goes... We arrived Friday evening after a not-too-bad drive with only minor delays caused by holiday makers flooding into Cornwall. We quickly found Arin and Rich sat in the hotel bar/lobby area sorting out some of the final details for the following day and in a state of calm panic. Arthur was to perform the ceremony but had to come down from Oxfordshire the next morning. Was the PA going to be ok? We had a quiet evening meeting a few of the other revellers in the hotel's bowling alley/bar downstairs after a quiet walk to a nearby pub. Next morning we had a pleasant coastal walk in Newquay town centre before returning to the hotel to find a few more arrivals - Dave & Kris, and shortly thereafter some of the road crew with the rest of the band following. Having changed we sat outside on the terrace for a drink by the mini bowlerama and were shortly joined briefly by Dave & Kris who were checking out the adjoining function room where the band would be playing that evening. Dave even managed to persuade the young assistant to let him have a quick crack at the old tenpins. Wandering upstairs we found Jill and Mike who was in need of some sunblock from a chemist. Taking pity on the poor man's pallid Scottish complexion, a most leisurely drive to a local apothecary followed. Shortly after our return the proceedings got underway out on the hotel terrace in the glorious, if windy, weather. As reported Arthur presided over the fairly brief and very informal ceremony, starting with an amusing and informative history of marriage. Arin and Rich's heartfelt vows followed then we all retreated inside for drinks followed by some group photos. After dinner, speeches and cake cutting (someone suggested Dave should make a speech as it was 'all his fault, after all'!) we all dispersed until the evening party started. The set was as Mike listed, and one of the most laid-back performances I've seen from the band, but not without some great rocking moments. Dave was seated for some of the gig and looking very comfortable, suggesting that he might do this more often! Everyone seemed to be having a whale of a time (possibly assisted in many cases by the unmarked bottles of wine mentioned by Mike, courtesy of Julie & Merrick, most of the band were seen clutching bottles as they left the next day!) and seeing so many of Rich's relatives bopping away to Assassins of Allah was a truly memorable sight! Becky, my girlfriend, a Hawkwind newbie, really rather enjoyed the show too. I'm currently trying to persuade her that she can put Hawkfest before work. Following the gig was a disco with much chatting and banter, but pretty much no dancing, until the hotel staff had finally had enough. Dave led a few brave souls off on a moonlit walk on the beach while the rest of us departed to our rooms after a wonderful day. After breakfast and some fond farewells to those who were leaving Mike, Jill, Becky and I had a very pleasant lunch in Newquay before they got their train. The afternoon was marred a little by the poor weather, maybe we should have gone to the Eden Project afterall! After quiet meal in a very nice restaurant in Newquay we attempted to go to the advertised Reggae night at a bar round the corner from the hotel. No such luck - it was dead as a doornail. Following breakfast and another lovely coastal walk we set off for home, basking in the memory of a truly lovely weekend to which this meagre write-up scarcely does justice. Thanks once again to Rich and Arin for letting us be part of such a unique wedding and we wish you all the best in your life together. A big hello goes out to everybody we met, old friends and new. Look forward to seeing you all at Pentrich and/or Hawkfest. From Deadearnest at BTOPENWORLD.COM Wed Jun 25 16:33:04 2003 From: Deadearnest at BTOPENWORLD.COM (Andrew Garibaldi) Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2003 21:33:04 +0100 Subject: HW various Message-ID: In the past we have wanted sales stands at various Hawkwind tours/events but it was always construed by the powers that be, that sales of our items actually took money away from sales relating directly to the band which, when you think about it dispassionately, is fair enough. So we've not been present when you think we might be. While I have a living to maintain, so has the band - and I am going to be the last person to conflict with that, when all is said and done. However, I have applied for a Dead Earnest stand so you never know, although I am now getting a sinking feeling that I may just be on holiday that weekend, so it may well be immaterial. But I will,of course let you know. In many ways, it's like a nut still to be cracked in that I've been selling and promoting Hawkwind-related music for a staggering 24 years now, and have still to do such a stand at a festival or tour. One day, perhaps. However, one thing that is pretty well in the bag, for those that are in an area that matters, is that CD Services is about to join the record fair circuit. We kick off at Dundee on 31st August (to be confirmed) and then hopefully move through Scotland, and, with luck into England later on in the year. My congrats also to the happy Hawkcouple - may you have the 24 years of married bliss that - somehow - I've managed, and more. According to Tommy, the Farflung stuff is still in the "to be decided stages". Paul from Arc Metaphor tells me that the relaunch of Bionaut may well be imminent. Right now,there are loads of things for CD release, "in the pipeline", so expect a plethora (great word, that) of issues sometime soon - and look out for the flag I'll be flying when Martin is finally happy with the Krel artwork and text!!! Look forward to seeing you.

Message-ID: What can I say? Everything's been said, the joy, the laughter, happiness as Arin and Richard, lovebound, sharing vows and wedding rings while Arthur Brown resplendent in a flowing gown of darkest hue upon a terraced stage with backdrop of the finest view of Cornwall's landscape urged us all to recognise the love that stirs our deepest soul. And so we shared the ceremony privileged and honoured friends we laughed and talked and ate and cut the cake then afterwards we walked or swam or simply in a lazy way sat back absorbing all the moments of the day. Eventually we gathered all of us into an underground environment and there with Hawkwind in control we danced or flew or simply stayed still and let the memories of all that day drift and fill and echo back to us in dreams the themes of friendship, love and sharing all as one. And so to Arin and to Richard now I come to offer you my gratitude and thanks and best endeavour and most of all the wish that all your love will last.

I am afraid I was too busy bopping. Here is my account: The proceedings started convivially with a wine reception. I can personally vouch for the quality of both the red and white wines offered. Both bride and groom were resplendent in multi-coloured outfits, a reflection of the colurful guests, no doubt. The wedding ceremony took place on an extensive veranda overlooking the Atlantic. Arthur was the officiator, and his theme was the history of marriage. We were treated to an account of marriage's pagan origins, an explanation that the ring represented the joining of the male and female dichotomies into a unified whole, an account of the Synod of Whitby in 664 where the church in these islands resolved to take the Roman rather than the Celtic route, some musings on the "rule of thumb" and finally eloquent good wishes for Arin and Rich. The happy couple then exchanged personalised vows, supported by a good natured and stoical best man who was outrageously dressed in a 3 piece suit. Drinks followed and then dinner and speeches - all very well received. As for the evening entertainment, I can't fault Mike's list - I will only add that when Hawkwind sang "Where Are They Now" - it was obvious - they were all on the dance floor bopping. Congratulations to Colin Allen to pristine sound qulaity. The delivery of all the songs was crisp and tight. Arthur has blended well into the band; an excellent front-man. Many photographs were taken and will shortly be on the net, including (if she doesn't hide it first) the wife dancing vigorously to "Assault and Battery". I can't tell you too much about the end of the evening, because I don't remember it terribly well, apart from the fact that trying to find an open take-away in Newquay after midnight is as lonely as any nocturnal walk Harry Haller ever made. In fact, the wolf in me would have been happy with a plate of chips, but remained unsatisfied. What lingers after the event is the sense of everyone's bubbling good nature.

Prior to the festivities we started the day with a leisurely splosh around and "getting to know" session in the hotel pool and then had a frantic morning trip to Truro to find a wedding present, life having been too hectic in the preceding couple of weeks. It seems our last minute choice was serendipitous - especially since it involved defeating Ottakars' stock control system and battling our way through the hordes of pre-teen Potterists!!! The other up-side was meeting the lady from the "Screech Owl Sanctuary" who had two owls with her in the shop to help promote the book, so we got their details and paid a visit on the journey home. A better local attraction than Perranporth (though that benighted place does have a fascinating giant size sundial on the southern headland over the beach!) The ceremony and the show have been more than adequately described by others - definitely the best wedding I've ever attended! So, my thanks and best wishes for the future to Arin & Rich from Helen & myself. T'riffik t-shirts too! Hope everything goes smoothly with the relocation and that you'll be properly united in connubial bliss ASAP.

I just wanted to make the announcement that I am now seeking to put together an all new U.S. lineup of SLOTERDIJK and will be building the new incarnation from the ground up. Instrumentation sought includes: drums, percussion ( an electronic kit would be preferable, but not neccessary). Trap kits are fine for live gigs bass synth player: ( basically needed for oscillations, string sweeps etc) and or organist ( farfisa etc), mellotron Now of course, SLOTERDIJK's existance does not depend on the aquisition of these musicians, as it always exists as long as I'm around. As many of you know I have toured and appeared as SLOTERDIJK alone on many occaisions. Until just recently I was trying out live drums, and it was working very well. I'd like to continue in this vein if possible. I am based in the state of southern New Jersey, so you would have to be within driving distance ot make it viable, however practices will be few and far between.

THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN - South Parade Pier, Southsea, , England, Friday, July 11th. Ex Led Zeppelin Robert Plant's 2002 tour featured a very impressive support set from Arthur Brown, "The God Of Hellfire", who burst on the scene with his hit single "Fire" back in 1968. Since then Arthur has continued to be busy and has just finished a tour as guest vocalist with Hawkwind. Friends and inhabitants of The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown can see Arthur headlining his own concert at South Parade Pier, Southsea, Hants, U.K. on Friday July 11th. Arthur confirmed the concert on Saturday at The Isle Of Wight Festival - 35 years after he caused a sensation at the first Isle Of Wight Festival in 1968, appearing in flaming headgear! This promises to be an evening of unhinged madness, and Arthur will be supported by The Magick Cat, Kev Ellis' new psychedelic blues band, which features Kev on wailing harmonica and vocals, Chris Hopgood on lead guitar, Russ Brookes on drums & Ben Smith on bass guitar. This promises to be an evening of psychedelic madness, and will be on Friday 11th July, doors opening at 8.p.m. Tickets are ?8.50, and will be on sale from tomorrow at the usual outlets, Wedgewood Rooms Box Office, Reflex Records, and South Parade Pier. Arthur will be supported by The Magick Cat. For more information visit http://www.barkingspider.abelgratis.com Improvijazzation Nation #63 is online now.

This was a free festival, and I amusingly shared the bill with the likes of Cuba Gooding senior etc. It was a beautiful day, with the sea right behind me. Chris Columbo was the most famous drummer ( of any type) to come out of Atlantic City, and he worked professionally til age 92. He was present at the first Columbo Jazz fest, where he celebrated his centennial, then passed away shortly afterward. setlist: Smokestack Lightning The Red Rooster London Rocker Hymie The Winey Sloop John B * Hurry On Sundown PS: The encore reflects the fact that tyhe music of Hawkwind was blending in with the bizaare sights and sounds of this gamblong mecca. The place is a stark contrast between wealth and poverty, and I'm happy to say that the people in the audience for my show, represented both sides of that coin. Cheers!

We aimed to throw a good party, and judging by reviews, it looks like we succeeded ;-) Just a quick thanks....without this list, I doubt I would have had my interest in the band resparked (sometimes to obsessive levels ;-) ), and I really doubt that I would have started my record of running over the pond to see the band ;-) ...and, of course, without that, I'd never have met Rich IRL and gotten together. So it's all your (collective) fault ;-) Thx to all the Hawkfolk who made it to the wedding! I'm just sorry I couldn't invite more....... See you all at the Hawkfest!
