Don't worry - not even those who know Hawkwind well know who's in band
sometimes!   When last heard it was Dave Brock, Richard Chadwick (drums)
Ron Tree, Jerry Richards -

Where are you planning to hold your con?   We've no venue planned but I
guess we should look for something close by - or maybe could take over a
chunk of your venue if there are conference facilities available or a
big enough room?    I guess a nearby hall would probably do and we could
get our own licence if there isn't already one?

Someone on this list offered tech support as well, a while back.   Would
you and he be willing to talk and arrange something?

I think Bernard is co-ordinating various people's offers of help and
finance so he's the person to keep in touch with.

Welcome on board!
