HW: Hawkestra

[Thomas, Guy]

The lightshow was operated by Jasper (of Fruit Salad Lights fame).  As seen
at plenty of Porcy's gigs too! I had a long chat with him before the show.

                No, I think it was Keith Hale...I think he was introduced as
such.  And I'm
                pretty sure that Liquid Len pulled out (too much money I
heard), and that it
                was Jen and Pogle (Fruit Salad, or whatever they're called)
of Ozrics' fame.
                Sure looked familiar to me from the first US Ozrics tour of
the early 90s.

                As far as DikMik is concerned, I clearly heard some '6
million dollar man'
                type choppy synth effects that I've only ever heard on Space
Ritual, so his
                presence was pretty obvious to me.  Del I never knew was up
there until the
                very end, as I couldn't see behind the PA on stage right,
due to where I was
                standing.

                Did Mick Slattery actually play?  I only saw him come out
for a bow.  And
                did Terry Ollis only play on the Hurry On Sundown/Dreaming
piece?  I
                couldn't see who was playing Richard's kit most of the time,
'cause the
                person's face was entirely covered by a large crash cymbal.
