Put a donation box out front...  one for each member...  the ultimate
popularity
contest..  see what the fans really want..  and see who really warrants
"extra cash."
Lemmy should have no trouble agreeing to this, if he is so sure that he
is -that- valuable..
Let's see... last reunion effort, he backed out because HW wouldn't fly him
first class...
Maybe not his decision- his agent's- but all the same to me.

of seats, and let people know that they're paying x pounds per ticket just
to see Lemmy play with Hawkwind (on top of the other costs).  I reckon most
people will gladly pay one or two quid for a "Lemmy tax", which would
translate into a couple of grand for him.  Like it or loathe it, that's the
way the market works.
Sound pretty reasonable to me, but what if everybody is gonna ask
for some extra cash. It's allright for me to pay a few quid extra just
for Lemmy, but I also would like to see Nik and Huw on stage. So
what if the ask for a few quid?
I would like to say screw all who want a few quid extra, we buy
enough records, t-shirts and other shit already. that should be
enough.
