Hawkwind Oslo cancelled

[gingoblin at EASYNET.CO.UK]

I was just wondering yesterday why Oslo wasn't on the website... now I 
know! Pity I've paid for the damn flights. And just today sent some Hawk 
discs over to Oslo friends who were gonna be seeing 'em for the first time, 
and in fact had never even heard them before... fuck, this is annoying. Now 
I better hope my Hamburg friend who I was telling MUST see Hawkwind at 
least once in their lifetime hasn't booked flights also, or I'll be in trouble!
Ah well, it'll have to be just Edinburgh then. At least it's not six quid a 
pint here. Yet...
