i do not actually enjoy talking about this subject,but i think nik should
retire,or at least go to only writing.
i saw last years tour,and i thought it was pretty damned good.except for
nik's voice.
the band was not really a classic line up.nik,len,and del.len and del
appeared because they had nothing else to do.simon house was pretty near
irrelevant.a bunch of nice guys,but who needs a nostalgia band?
the new material is not worthy of the hawkwind name.
brockwind,while it has its problems,is a logical progression of style.they
still touch on the old stuff,but
at least they are putting out new material.i dont know if you are aware,but
nik really had very little to do with the last annubislights disc.the
material was all finished and they sent it to him for him to add
his vocal tracks...least thats the way i heard it.
the 'official' hw is the one for me,no question.i prefer high energy at
shows.
i think i'll shut up now.
merry,merry... rj
