[Keith Henderson]

Technicians of Cyberspace Hawkwind!  This is your Captain speaking!  Your
Captain is undesirable!  Your Captain is undesirable!  :)

>We have had such a shit time you would not believe.

Ughhhh...now I feel guilty for having such a great time.

>There was supposed to be a phone link to the gig so I could directly
>address the fans, also I was going to sing a number down the phone, we sat
>in the hotel room all evening and no call came, we phoned the festival 3
>times, eventually we were told that they had not got it together.

Now this woulda been the coolest Hawkwind experience of my life.  Could you
imagine hearing a disembodied Brockian voice emanating from Strange Daze
speakers??

"I am a clone, I am quite alone...
every fibre of my flesh and bone is
holed up in this damn hotel in Canada."

>You can imagine how it felt to come home to all of this.....

Awright...WHO was it!?!?!  :)

Goddamn Ken Starr, it's all his fault.  (Yer off the hook *this* time, Swann.)

P.S.  In the photo of HW fans, I think Mark Marianetti (sp?) is in there
(perhaps his brother is one of the others?), and the guy with no shirt's
name is John I think.  I remember talking to him, anyway.
