[cosmicmichael]

Into or out???

[asgardasgard]

Was priveliged to see this gig in australia with about 50 other people max.Own a full recording of the gig too, before it was edited down. Recently Hawkwind returned to Oz for a short run and Dave said they'd be back soon.

[GUILDHALL100]

Harvey is a legend and a true gentleman

[narred]

[plisplis00]

ALWAYS AND FOREVER HAWKWIND!!!!

[FugalQuease]

ROFL!!  - awesome blanga plus a hippie stoner rant. lovelovelove

[mickeyfubar69]

its all a dreim mate

[LiteracyLabyrinth]

I saw this concert it was in Australia at Studio 22 where lots of bands play on a late nigt show called Studio 22. They started with a speeded up Silver Machine and went on from there. Great stuff - wheres the rest of this concert? It was a half hour TV show so someone must have it.

Spinal Tap!

[jaxxstraw]

What the fuck is Bainbridge mithering on about?

[hypermetropia1]

@jaxxstraw If you have to ask, you're not smoking his brand............. Good Old Bains XXX

[PocusUK]

wish someone would upload all the solo stuff some of the guys went on to do, my friend had a great album which was just all their solo stuff, tracks by alan davey etc, it wasn't the Friends and Relations album either, wish I knew the name of it even had Michael Moorecock tracks on it above and beyond the New Worlds Fair stuff

[Convergingspirals]

@PocusUK The best of friends and relations...?

[cyyyggnus]

Insanely good!  Thanks for sharing.

[KarmicAnarchist]

@stickleback99 And have you noticed, you never see them together? Funny that.

[uncleambient]

Wacky but good!!

[hambone9119]

dave brock is da man

[tacsmoker]

great

[DokktorDeth]

To understand Hawkwind, you have to understand Michael Moorcock. Read the Jewel in the Skull & the Elric books to start with. Revelations!

[somedudeinva]

Check out the "Hawklords" cover.

That's the way this song would completely rock my world.

[somedudeinva]

When I watch this, I skip to 1:55, watch to :4:00, skip to 9:00, and enjoy the rest.

If I could take Hawkwind and crunch these long-ass pointless songs down to the 3 minutes that's actually a great rock song, I would likely love them. But when 70% of each song is just LSD-induced guck, it's a curiosity at best.

[sex6cult9revolution]

To speak of a movement and then corner its market: hypocrisy. To speak of artistry and use up the whole canvas: monopoly. To engender a collaboration and then shut out all input from others: megalomania. In short... Dave Brock. I gave up on Hawkwind a long time ago... But then, I gave up on the notion of "rock" music a long time ago... Find the future - not the past.

[wcbob63]

i saw them in liverpool last week awesome

[wcbob63]

hey jayhead,get ya fact right dave brock is hawkwind and founded the band,which he copy writed,so no one else can use the name,for which is why the hawklords gig was cancelled this year as shit sounding carnt play a sax turner,got done and find for trying to use the name....i rest my case.

avid fan

[alshell123]

Well now that Hawklords have played their gig and blew Dave Brock away till the end of time maybe it's time you shut up being a wanker wcbob ...check the Hawklords videos !

[yellowhawk451]

@wcbob63 i have seen hawkwind 40+ times the 229 club was the up there in the top 5 best ever hawk gigs i have seen

[jayheadj420]

Nik Turner's Space Ritual is the real Hawkwind. Spacebrock is ik but not as good

[robson1144]

Didn't they do well ! ;-)))))

[ViolinCyndee]

Ssssssspaceyyyyyyy!!! Very cool seeing Harvey in this video--he and I had a bunch of gigs in the US recently! Was awesome!! HW rocks majorly!!!

[uncleambient]

Hawkmongous space catz!! :)

[odraconiandevil79]

farout

[GlitchDoggZ]

dave is the best

[454hawklord454]

saw harvey backing space ritual last week still a great man lives of great men eh

[opalinefox]

At least put that remark into context, because I also disagree with you. Commercial compared to what?

[hassanishaba]

wa the bests at chronicles of the black sword tour early 80s

[legolisp]

Harvey Bainbridge.......I'd like to get "Out of It" with you (again)!

[electrocamel]

Superb! I really mean that...man

[fourpm]

Hawkwind c/w FBI warning text. I'll never get over the irony of that :-)

[windymiller7]

Splendid footage of Mr Bainbridge doing what comes naturally. H - you are a very bad man! ;-)

[zax93]

Thanks to the Hawks for a great gig in Holmfirth last week!

[EvilStu]

Yes Hawklord, my clip was removed within 24 hours ! I have no idea why. Perhaps HW management were keeping a closer eye than normal on here whilst HW are actually touring. Or maybe there are copyright issues with them performing "Motorhead" I have no idea but I'm seeing Motorhead live twice next week... will try & film some at one of the gigs & upload it here ! :D

[barzatops]

was the first live rock band i seen back in 86 in newcastle mayfair..

[hassanishaba]

nice one me 84

[EvilStu]

I saw Hawkwind live last week @ Norwich UEA.

Filmed them finishing their set with "Motorhead"

Put it on youtube & within one day it had been removed & a nasty email was recieved from them !

Yeh nice one Hawkwind ! Talk about shattering illusions ! :(

[HawklordPXR5]

Damn, I missed that clip! I check out YT several times a week and I know HW management can be quick to spot things, but that's unusually swift, isn't it?

[narred]

whoa. that dont sound good. never thought hawkwind would lay that "this is ours dont touch" crap like the big corps.

but, they ARE very old men now. values change? dave looks so worn out these days. harvey? pffft.

[whiteWolf74]

I miss bridgett wishart on the vocals :(

[Legacyof]

Harvey Bainbridge will be on tour with Spaceseed this fall.

[HawklordPXR5]

Hmmm, it's about time we had some Hawkwind on YouTube. Most of the world's big rock bands are well-represented here, but (apart from TOTP 72) it's left to TLT and Nik Turner to fill the gap left by the lack of HW.

This Utopia reminds me of Sonic Attack in places :)

[pressgang]

i put a stack of hawkwind on youtube ages ago but got a rather nasty email from hawkwind managment about copyrights,which i found it funny as i thought hawkwind was the champions of the underdogs, But in this email they really showed their true capitalistic colours

[HawklordPXR5]

Yes, people sometimes post the Marc Bolan 1977 TV show footage of QSC and it soon vanishes again, often with the user account suspended. Moral of the story is: if you see something good, download it (check my profile page for info on how to do this).
