And, if they covered "Bummer," I'm sure they'd get a lot more Hawkwind
fans turning up, too, since it's a dead ringer for "Time We Left This
World Today" (at least at the start)... :-)

He was with them when I saw them in late July in Roanoke.  If you can
catch these guys live, DO SO!  They put on a hell of a show.

I think they're currently supporting Aerosmith on their tour right now.

BTW, Monster Magnet are Pollstar's "Hotstar of the Week" right now.
