This is great. I just getting into Hawkwind at this time, I went to the Norwich gig of this tour, and then later to the Birkenhead re-union show, and then the Hawkestra and the "Yule Ritual". This video represents good memories for me, thanks.
It's a shame things didn't pan out like they could have done since then, but the whole Hawkwind scene still has a great legacy that will be enjoyed for many years to come.
bloody hell! had almost forgotten i was there , the solar 550s looked amazing ..seem to remember a stgasaurus sax player comming through the crowd ......
Yes, that is what it is like at a Hawkwind gig, except the sound was better, ahaha, you just have to have been there, its is kind of too late if you've never saw them.
This looks alot like the 'Hawkestra' gig, hope theyre playing in this years 'Eastern haze' festival-I drove from Holyhead to fucking Lowestoft to see them, just made it too - they came on 1 hour after I arrived.
Dunno if this was a 'Hawkestra' gig, I never saw any posters for it but I think it was just HW + Nik as a guest. I did catch the Brixton 2000 'Hawkestra' and that had loads of them involved. Almost 20 people on stage for Silver Machine!
One of the best Hwakwind gigs I'v been to
