HW: Gig sources for Stonehenge (This is Hawkwind, Do Not Panic)?

[david hall]

Stonehenge 84 eh!
That would be the evening gig of 20.6 and the sunrise of 21.6. If I remember
correctly Huw thought somebody had knicked his e-bow and due to resulting
"bad karma" decided to hang around. The Snorkwind gigs were great too - in a
large marquee with acrobats and trapeze artist overhead. I have in the past
posted about Henge 84...everyone was in fine form. Dozens of bands all over
the site doing HW covers, usually badly. Two bands stick out in the old
memory: Karma Kanix and Earthbound (Earth Band), the latter had a chinese
singer/guitar player, awesome, he had those Steve Hillage chops to a tee!
Was anyone else there?
