The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

Getting in the mood for some Hawkwind
Silver Machine sung by Arthur Brown who guested with the Hawks for a couple of years
Spirit of the Age featuring talk show host Matthew Wright on vocals
Arrival in Utopia (Harvey Bainbridge's monologue goes on a bit). Kris Tait tones down the fire eating in the tv studio.
They were on great form. The support band, a French trash metal band caled Prime Sinister, were okay but they became a bit boring after a few songs. THe Hawks really were on great form. The new poermanent bassist Mr Dibs fitted in really well - he should do, he was their roadie and has guested many times. Tim Blake was excellent, especially on the theremin. Things went awry only once -some of the vocals on one song sounded a bit out of tune - but they were tight and played a marvellous set.
