HW: Strange Days 2000

[dhuggins]

Yikes,

        "News just coming in about various Hawkwind members pencilled in for
                    the Strange Daze 2000 festival - Richard Chadwick and Jerry
Richards,
                    together in a new band with Steve Earl Taylor and Steve
Hayes from
                    Cleveland, with all new music...  Simon House and Spiral
Realms... plus
                    Harvey Bainbridge and Interstellar Chaos."

        All new music usually means they have to spend a wee little time
together.  Does this mean they are going to write cross the pond via the
internet or actually co-locate?  If so, which side of the pond?

        btw, I assume one of the Steves is on the NZ/AU tour playing bass?
What
does the other steve play (please say keyboards!!).

        Does this mean that Dave sold his guitar again at the last gig?  I sure
hope not.  Does this mean the end of a viable, recording and touring,
Hawkwind.  I sure hope not.

        I am a bit puzzled by the Simon House involvement, I thought he
couldn't
get into the US.  But this is on the official HW Website, so must at least be
true in thought, if not in fact.


                                        Somewhat Puzzled, Excited, and Sad,

                                                Dave
