Hawkwind request discussion continued

[Michael Blackman]

For those who think (and not thinking very very deeply at that)  that Hawkwind are only requesting that gigs not be recorded because they are hoping for a BIG company deal to make millions.......

lets think a little deeper......

what if  (and there is a fair bit of it going on in boc today lol - so here is my "WHAT IF") 

what if........ a BIG tour was on the drawing board..... say perhaps a world tour that quite possibly be funded by (whomever) under the provision that the recording was limited to an official recording.
Well hey - these things dont happen for free.  The engineers gotta be paid - the auditorioums need up front guaratees of ticket sales and  the cleaners gotta be paid.  They sure as aint gonna work for free.  SO WHY SHOULD HAWKWIND WORK FOR FREE.
