1973.09.15 Swedish television filmed a Peace and Love festival in
Scandinavium, Gothenburg, where the Hawks was one of 6-8 bands playing all
night.

It was broadcasted almost a year later - 1974.07.26 - in our second
uncommercial channel TV2, local time 21:35.

The Hawkwind shot was well cut down - only a 2 mins passage of the second
verse of Master of the Universe was there - but "it was HEAVY" claims
hawkfriend K.Sören Bengtsson of darXtar, who is remembering Seeing It As It
Really Were in his parents telly.

I got paper clips that's confirming this, but they're written in Swedish
language.
Unfortunally the Royal Swedish Television have erased all tapes from this
event to save Space on their shelves.
Pity.

and no, the VCR's was not too common in the year of 1974, there's no copies
on the loose...
