SPLITTERSSSSSSSSSS

[Erik Schroeder]

Everyone needs to realize that it is usually the clubs that bill them as
Hawkwind in an attempt to sell more tickets. Why so many Hawk fans feel the
need to come down on Uncle Nik is beyond me....the man is a great performer
and has incredible stage presence!

Mainly they come when Nik and other ex-Hawks tour, sometimes confusingly
billed as 'Hawkwind'

Exactly! Which is why Mr. Brock asked them to join in the first place, yes?
Each one adding their own special bit to the mix.
