Good selection I thought.

HW sounded better from nearer the stage, but back by
the mixing desk it was a bit of a muddle.  Loads of
guitar feedback at one point for Huw.  Alans vocals
only cut in during the Watcher.  Arthur Brown clearly
didn't know the words to Master but it didn't stop
him.  Tim seemed to be playing mainly synthy swizzles,
and at some points just wandered offstage altogether.
Despite these problems they were pretty tight,
especially Huw, Master was very good, the Palestine
section in Hassan was kept brief.  I'm glad I went, it
was fun, a variation on a HW gig that you won't see
very often!  If they got some dosh for it and
recruited a few more HW fans then so much the better.

Can anybody here confirm my belief that the Anthrax
number Antisocial is in fact the song by the French
band Trust who toured with Iron Maiden in 1981?

So, what's happened to Simon, and will he be at
Walthamstow on Thurs?  Anybody know?
