hawkwind name/flatulant as it may be

[Bob Lennon]

<< I received this from a member of the AC list I'm on.
 Has anybody ever heard this story before:
 > I've got this book about how rock bands got their names. Saw Hawkwind and
I
 > thought of you. (I hardly knew there was a band called Hawkwind until you
mentioned
 > it on SickThings.)
  > Anyway, you probably already know this but ...
 > Lemmy says they got the name because the sax and flute player, Nick
Turner, had
 > a big nose and he farted alot. It was Hawkwind Zoo before that but he says
it
 > was still for the same reason. He says there is no such place as Hwakwind
Zoo in
 > London.
 > Anyway, that's what Lemmy say.

<<Sounds like just a myth to me, but I don't how they got the name.
