Especially with Tim on theremin. But I think Alan is as likely
to do this and might do it as well. Still, it'd be great to hear a
section of it dropped into a jam like they still do with `Paranoia'.

I'm not sure there's really enough of a song in the former to
sustain a Hawkwind performance, not without words. The latter'd be great
though, I can just hear Dr Brock's guitar ripping through that one. I
may have to listen to that now. Once the Pink Fairies finish maybe,
yours,
