We arrived not long before the gig due to an idiot coal lorry driver
holding traffic down to 15mph going over the Carter Bar and into
Newcastle.

I did bfiefly meet up with Julie and Merrick, and Steve Ibbet just
before the show, but couldn't find 'em afterwards.

The tracks that I can remember were:

Assault and Battery
The Golden Void
The Money Tree
Spiral Galaxy
Deathtrap
Sonic Attack (with Dumpy guesting on vocals)
Rocky Paths
Moonglum
Hassan I Sabha/Space is Their Palestine
Hurry On Sundown (encore)

Maybe some of the others will fill in the gaps.

The Money Tree is of course the new track and I have to say that it
sounds just like Ron's other punk efforts and that maybe the law of
diminishing returns is operating here.

The crew were brock, Langton, Richards, Chadwick, Davey, House and
Captain Black, with Dumpy guesting vocals on Sonic Attack.

Kollector's Corner: I also established that Hawkwind are on the official
videos of the 1995 (Interview with Brock and Davey, Hassan I Sabha/Space
is Their Palestine) and 1999 (Silver Machine) shows.
