Well, it seems that Hawkwind's ever changing demands killed their concert in
Oslo. My band, the Oresund Space Collective were suppose to play at this show
but expenses were running wild and Hawkwind was being very unreasonable to the
promoter (and doing very stealthy and unreasonable things like changing the
agreed fee from Euros to pounds, etc..) and he had to can the show. What started
out as a really great thing ended in a bummer for everyone involved and mainly
due to the band themselves being excessively greedy, needy. Pity. I was really
looking forward to this and so was the promoter and all my Norwegian friends....

Any word on the follow up to X in Search of Space? Do you think the band will
debut any of these songs in the April UK tour with Girlschool?

all the best
