Here's a question I've meant to ask for ages. At the
all-nighter in '91 (may have been '90) at Brixton Academy,
there was busker playing guitar outside the gig using an
amp on a shopping trolley powered by a car battery.
Anyway, at the end of Hawkwind's set (may have been a 2nd
set that evening), Hawkwind finished with a lot of sounds
and noise which evolved into the very same busker being
left on stage still with the shopping trolley amp playing
away on his own.
Me and a friend (hi Jas!) were dancing like mad and
didn't even notice the change from band to busker until we
looked up. Does anyone know who that busker was? Was he a
real busker? Or was he a former band member in disguise?
We were new to the Hawk scene at the time so wouldn't
have recognised a previous member.
cheers - Rob
