Never with Hawkwind AFAIK, but he's played most of the guitars and
keyboards on his three solo albums, which BTW all contain many examples of
the wonderfully melodic vibe he brought to Hawkwind.

I doubt that would be an issue, as Al Powell (who was in cahoots with
Rudolph at the time, especially seeing that they played together in Kicks
and on the Deviants "Screwed Up" EP after Hawkwind) played on Nik's
entire '95 US tour, and is on the "confirmed" list for this event.  Not
*everyone* holds grudges for 25 years (certainly not Nik - if that were the
case I don't think there would be an ICU reunion as part of the show)!

Curiouser and curiouser.  Even though it hasn't been announced, I've
assumed that they were going to be part of Nik's band in Cleveland next
month ...

(Never a dull moment with Hawkwind "personnel" issues!)
