A quick heads up to any of you intending to come
to HawkEaster and haven't got your tickets yet.We only have a handful left
and expect to sell out over the weekend.
Full line up will be announced in the next few days.
Atomhenge,
the Cherry Red
Records label managed by Esoteric Recordings, the home of the
entire HAWKWIND catalogue released between 1975 and 1997, are very
pleased to announce that the classic HAWKWIND album “WARRIOR ON
THE EDGE OF TIME”
will be released in May 2013 as a
newly remastered edition from the original stereo master tapes. Atomhenge
label manager Mark Powell said; “Contrary to popular myth, the master tapes
of this classic album were never lost. They remained in the United Artists
vaults. The Atomhenge reissue will be the first ever CD edition to be taken
from the original first generation master tapes. All previous editions have
been taken from vinyl transfers or inferior copy master tapes”.
Aside from a single disc remastered
edition, there will be two other expanded editions of the album. Mark Powell
adds; “I’m extremely pleased to say that Steven Wilson has mixed the album
into a stunning 5.1 Surround Sound mix from the original multi-track master
tapes and has also undertaken a new stereo mix of the album which has an
amazing depth and clarity whilst remaining faithful to the original release.
“Warrior” is one of THE classic albums of the 1970s and is a land-mark album
in Hawkwind’s history. The forthcoming reissues will do justice this
magnificent record”.
Full details of the editions of
“Warrior” will be announced in the coming weeks.
Cherry Red
managing director, Adam Velasco added; “The album “Warrior on the Edge of
Time” has been unavailable officially on CD for many years and it is our
intention to make the forthcoming releases definitive editions in terms of
audio remastering (from the original master tapes), content and packaging”.
Hawkwind
will be touring in April 2013 performing WARRIOR ON THE EDGE OF TIME,
with further dates planned later in the year. Confirmed dates ca be found on

Manchester support and a couple more bands for HawkEaster
Just letting you know
that Tim Blake will be doing a solo set as support for the gig at Manchester
this coming Friday. As ever full details of this and all upcoming Hawkwind
gigs can be found on the
tour dates page but please make special note of the stage times
for this show as there is an early curfew due to the venue also holding a
club night -
We had a meeting with the campsite owners the
other day. It's a beautiful site with amazing views over Lyme Bay. The
campsite is approximately 15 minutes walk to the venue, (a little more
coming back as it's uphill :-). The venue is
2 minutes walk from the sea front :-).
The price per pitch for a large/family tent (and car) is Ł10 or Ł5 for
single/small tent (and car), payable directly to the site owners.
There are a few electric hook-ups available on the campsite, but
unfortunately, only for tents as the site is not suitable for motor homes
etc, unless the ground is exceptionally dry. There are however, extra spaces
for motor homes elsewhere on the site, which do have electric hook ups.
These sites are limited....probably only around 15, more if you book
together and don't mind sharing a pitch...
Good news! Dogs are welcome and the owner (Tim) will put up a marquee with
picnic tables as a meeting area for HawkEaster folk.
Tipis will be
available to rent fully furnished (if required) from
Eve's Tipis, click here for more details.

Seaton Tramway are offering HawkEaster wristband holders a 10%
discount, for more details on this visit their site by

We would like to thank those of you who braved the terrible weather on
December 20th to join us in the Celebration of the Life of Huw
Lloyd-Langton. It was a wonderful tribute to Huw, that so many people
attended to pay their last respects and helped to make it a day that Huw
would have approved of..
Marion, Kirsty and family would like to thank everyone who sent messages of
tribute and condolence.
Your support was truly appreciated.
Later in the year, we are planning to erect a memorial, with a commemorative
plaque, in a place where fans and friends can visit to remember Huw.
This will be in the summer and we will make it a day of celebration.
Hopefully it will give those of you who could not attend on Thursday, the
opportunity to come, share your stories and say farewell.
More details on this soon
20.12.12 - Huw's funeral - Order of
service
In case you missed the
link elsewhere simply click here
As you can imagine there has been an overwhelming
response to the very sad news of Huw’s passing. We have had thousands of
messages from all around the world.
There are so many folk who would have loved to come and pay their respects
to Huw in person on Thursday, but practicalities would not allow.
Marion and Kirsty have expressed their wishes that those people from around
the world, who cannot be present, light a candle at 12 noon and say a few
words in Huw’s memory.
If you would like to follow the service, we will be publishing the Order of
Service on Thursday via the website, keep an eye out for the link to appear.
For obvious reason we won't be posting
from the usual address so if there are any problems we will also be putting
the link details onto facebook so if nothing has appeared here by midday uk
time on Thursday then please check there for the relevant details, thank
you.
Update - A couple more points for you
regarding tomorrow
No dress code, come as you feel
comfortable.
Huw's family have requested that people do not take pictures on the day,
We are sure everyone will understand and respect their wishes.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation.
First of all on behalf of Huw's wife Marion, daughter Kirsty and the rest of
the Hawkwind family, we'd like to send out a heartfelt thanks to all of you
who have sent tributes and kind words of support at this sad time, via the
forum, facebook and e-mail.
Due to an overwhelming response and restrictions on space we need everyone
who would like to come and pay their respects to Huw on the 20th December,
and who has not already confirmed, to contact us at
Huw@hawkwind.com
as soon as possible and at the latest by Monday 17th December. We will then
collate a list of names which will be checked on the day. Unfortunately if
you are not listed, we will not be able to guarantee entry for the reasons
mentioned.
Thanks for reading and we look forward to hearing your confirmations over
the next few days.
Huw's funeral will take
place at 12 noon on Thursday 20th December at St Mary's Church, Church Hill,
Stalbridge, Sturminster Newton, DT10 2LR
All are welcome, however if you intend to be there, please email us by
clicking here
as soon as possible so that we have an idea of the numbers and can arrange a
suitable venue for the reception.
It is with immense
sadness that we have to let you know our great friend of many years and
fellow musician Huw Lloyd Langton passed away peacefully last night.
Huw had been bravely fighting cancer for a couple of years, but was
determined not to let the battle affect his day to day life. He continued to
play his guitar, laugh, joke and share the great love he had in his heart,
with all who knew him.
As he wished, he was at home when the time came, with his ever strong and
loving wife Marion at his side.
Huw was one of the great guitarists with an individual style and character.
He is gone but never forgotten by any of us. He will live on in our music
and in our hearts.
We will update you all with details of funeral and remembrance plans as and
when we have them.
Meanwhile we have opened a book of condolence on our forum
click here to visit,
for all of the many people who will wish to share their thoughts at this sad
time.
If you do not wish to
join the forum but still want to leave a message then please send an
e-mail here
and we will make sure these are added to the book at an appropriate time.

Breaking News!
Hawkwind Theremin and Ax player, Tim Blake has broken his wrist in a freak
pruning accident at his French home near Poitiers...
It seems that Monsieur Blake, was pruning the wall vines in his small
vineyard, when the ladder collapsed under him, shattering his wrist.
Tim was rushed by ambulance to Poitiers University Hospital where he was
operated on by the head of orthopaedics, le
Professor Gayet.
The plaster-cast will be taken off on August 13, and doctors will operate
immediately to remove the 3 pins.
Tim will then travel to Hawkwind HQ in the UK to join the rest of the band
for their performance at Rockin the Park festival in Nottinghamshire, on
August 17.
Tim commented, "When the medical team saw a video of me playing with
Hawkwind, they said, 'Okay, we'll get you playing for the 17th, but this
will hurt !'"
We might well see Tim playing a little more Theremin than Ax, at Clumber,
however he pointed out, "that a very expressive wrist is needed!"
03.07.12 - First date of 2013

We are really sad to have to pass on this sad news. We will do an update
when we return to England with details of Johns life and how he has spent
his years since leaving Hawkwind.
We thought it appropriate to share the message that we received from John's
sister Franny in its entirety.
"Hi Dave & Kris,
Sadly, John passed away on Saturday evening 26th May. He went peacefully,
after a wonderful day.
I'll just back track a week... John wanted to celebrate his forthcoming
birthday by giving the staff at Garden Crest a lunch party. So food was
brought in and everyone had a good time.
During that week he began to sleep a lot more than usual, and although his
breathing was a bit more laboured, he was still speaking pretty good.
The great thing was.. He received all our family birthday cards, and was so
thrilled to receive cards and letters from you lovely folk, and many
Hawkwind fans (some too young to have seen John play) all saying such
wonderful things,. His best friend Linda , was amazed by the content of the
letters, as John had never really talked about this part of his life. She is
going to send them over to me later on , So that me n sis n cousins can
enjoy reading them.
John was also very happy to receive a package from me, containing photos I'd
taken when i visited him last month, of his carers, and also some beach life
at "Surf City USA" where I stayed. Also included were copies of
illustrations I had just finished for a book a friend has written, (these
had been giving me nightmares as they'd taken me so long to do). He thought
they were brilliant ( well he would - he's my bruv ! ha ha).
So on Saturday 26th when Linda visited, she re-read his cards and letters
with him, and also my package which he had been saving for her to show
him,and to read all my attatchments. He really enjoyed himself, deciding
which things to add to his pinboard, or the wall.
He also spent his usual time in the garden, under the tree, shaded from the
hot Californian sun, overlooking the wonderful views, eating ice cream.
In the evening, William was attending to John around 7.45pm. John thanked
him for looking after him. William looked in on him again around 8pm and
found he had passed away.
Linda returned to see him, and said his face was so peaceful, and showed no
signs that he'd been distressed . which is a great relief to us all, as it
was expected that his final time could be quite traumatic.
She also said that during the week Robyn, his lovely visitor from social
services, had a nice talk with him, and Linda too had a conversation with
him about what might happen. She said he was very "at peace" no longer
afraid, and felt it would be just like going to sleep.
I think I mentioned that John had arranged that his body would go to UCLA
medical centre. They were notified straight away, and a very nice white
vehicle collected him .Several carers and staff watched him leave ,and said
their goodbyes to "Mr John". He was treated with great respect and dignity.
Once again many thanks Dave and Kris , Hawkwind, and Fans, for your kindness
in sending messages, cards and letters to John. It played such a great part
in giving him happiness and contentment in his final days.
When you update your website with the news about John , you may use any info
from this e mail if you wish.
Meanwhile, Hope the tour has kicked off well, and you are all having a
fantastic time. with sell-out venues.
Love n Best wishes
Franny"

- Crystal Palace gig cancelled
Unfortunately we have
just found out that the Crystal Palace Garden Party gig that was scheduled
to take place on the 23rd June has been cancelled due to "Structural damage
to the stage".
Whilst we are sorry to
have to announce this it is obviously beyond Hawkwind's control.

- Some news regarding original Hawkwind bassist John Harrison
Hello folks,
We have some sad news about our friend and original Hawkwind bass player
John Harrison. John was diagnosed with Huntington's disease about 7 years
ago, and is now in the later stages of it. It's a horrible situation for
sufferers, as in John's case the brain stays sharp, but a single gene
mutation causes neurons in the brain to die which affects movement etc. The
body starts shaking in the first stages and then gradually closes down.
He is in a clinic and virtually bed ridden, but thanks to the brilliant team
of carers, and his own laid back, cheery personality, he has adapted to his
condition, and is very popular.
His view is the Hollywood hills, the "Hollywood" sign, the Griffith Park
Observatory, and beyond those, the mountains.
He has happy memories of his time in Hawkwind and has agreed to allow us to
share the news of his condition with you all. He sends his best wishes.
He will be 70 on 28th May and if anyone would like to send him a birthday
card he is at:
Garden Crest
909 North Lucile Avenue
Los Angeles 90026California
Thanks for reading

Hawkwind - new studio album details revealed
Eastworld
Recordings has announce the signing of legendary space rockers
Hawkwind.
The original pioneers of space rock return with their eagerly awaited new
album, "Blood Of The Earth",
their first in five years. Produced by the band at state-of-the-art
recording facility Earth Studios, "Blood Of The Earth"
takes the listener on a journey through crushing visceral space rock, doom
driven poetry, whimsical mantras and imagination opera. An example of humans
and machines pulsing in harmony out into the void....
Hawkwind is an English rock band, one of the earliest space rock groups.
Their lyrics favour urban and science fiction themes. They are also a noted
precursor to punk rock and now are considered a link between the hippie and
punk cultures.
Formed in early1969 by singer-songwriter and guitarist Dave Brock, Hawkwind
has gone through many incarnations and styles of music. Critic Jim Green
describes their trademark sound as characterized by "that gargantuan and
impenetrable pre-metal/hardcore drone, those great riffs, that inexorable
drive to destinations unknown". Dozens of musicians have worked with the
group; notable fantasy and sciencefiction writer Michael Moorcock
was an occasional collaborator.

It is with
heavy heart that we have to let you know, our good friend Carol Clerk passed
away peacefully in her sleep yesterday at 11.45am.
She had been battling breast cancer for over a year. In November she
suffered a stroke and was diagnosed with an additional brain tumour. Over
the weeks the tumour grew and put pressure on her brain.
She was admitted to Wisdom Hospice on Thursday and slept through.
Yesterday morning, with her husband Nigel by her side, she just stopped
breathing and slipped quietly away.
Carol wanted to keep her illness quiet and she suffered in silence for so
long - but now the world needs to know that she is no longer with us.
It was a privilege for us to call Carol our friend, she was a beautiful,
intelligent, funny, woman, a great friend and a talented journalist.
Carol loved Hawkwind and always said that the Hawkwind book was the best she
had ever written.
We felt an affection for Carol which went far beyond that of a purely
professional relationship.
After writing the book, we stayed in touch, we met socially and she attended
the last Hawkfest with her family and had a great time
She will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Our thoughts are with her husband Nigel and her daughter Eve.
Rest in peace our friend.........

- Huw update
Hello Folks,
Marion has asked me to tell you that we need some more positive thoughts and
prayers for Huw. Unfortunately the doctors are not happy with his kidneys
and if it does not improve in the next month he will have to go back on
dialysis. He is also anaemic and needs to put on weight........So come on
everyone, lets put our minds together and send him some good energy...
The good news is that he says nothing will stop him doing the 9th at the
Brook and it will probably do him good!
I will update you all with any news as I get it.
Thanks, Kris x

- Latest Huw update
Hello folks!
We saw Huw yesterday and he
is in good spirits
Although he is not out of the woods yet, he is certainly going in the right
direction and the positiveness that has come from all your messages and
prayers has certainly helped.....
The next few days are going to be crucial, so keep up those positive
thoughts and prayers....
Unfortunately Huw also broke his finger when he was very ill and had it
operated on today.........(It should fully recover and he will be back
playing his guitar as soon as he is able...)
We had a little caption competition at the hospital, but would welcome any
suggestions you have, please post these to either the forum or myspace for
the attached photo
All entries will be passed on to Huw and Marion to judge...
We will keep you updated of any news...
Love Kris

- More news regarding Huw Lloyd Langton
Hi all
One of our forum members
happens to work at the same hospital where Huw is being treated and has just
posted the following message which you'll no doubt want to read -
Just a quick message from
Marion and Huw to post :
Ah! Thank you. Actually you could post a message from me please.
Yesterday Huw was in a remarkable frame of mind and is being very positive
and philosophical about it all. Quote "look so what if it is dialysis for
rest of my life or a kidney transplant c'est la vie - I can think of a lot
worse things cancer being one of them". So he is back fighting the cause.
Which of course gives me a huge amount of
energy to carry on.
I believe the wonderful prayers, good vibes and support sent out by the
Hawkwind family have given him real courage to fight this. So thank you one
and all and keep sending them up!
03.10.09
- Huw Lloyd Langton very ill

dialysis at The Dorset County Hospital.
Please send all your thoughts, prayers and good vibes to Huw and Marion to
get them through this.
If you would like to send a card, please send it to :-
Huw Lloyd Langton
Prince of Wales Ward

- A couple of things for you
First off some of you may have noticed this on the home page
but it's worth repeating here -
Hawkwind are subject of a 1 hour special entitled "The
Mighty Wind – Hawkwind at 40" that will be aired for the first time on
Planet Rock radio this coming Saturday at 7pm UK time, the show will feature
interviews with both the band and fans recorded at the recent Porchester
Hall gigs and promises to appeal to both the hard core fan as well as those
less familiar with the band, so i doubt that part applies to anyone reading
this.
The
show will also be repeated on the 17th September (time unknown) and as well
as this it will also feature on the stations media player meaning you will
be able to access it for 7 days after the initial broadcast via the
internet. Planet rock is available on DAB digital radio and the world wide
web, to visit the stations web site
click here.
Secondly,
tomorrow, the 8th September marks the first anniversary of the sad passing
of Hawkwind keyboard player Jason Stuart, may we suggest that Hawkfans the
world over take a brief moment during the day to remember him and raise a
glass in his honour whenever and wherever you happen to be.
Thanks for reading

thought it would be a nice idea if as many folk as possible brought a
present wrapped up, nothing expensive, just something you think others
would like, then, when the music stops, everyone will exchange presents
with the person next to them.....
More news soon...

the Green Man festival in Wales on the 23rd August. as part of 11 hours of
"Space Music", for more details see below or visit the festival's own web

space rockers Hawkwind, beautiful folk from the
mellifluously voiced Alisha Sufit (of 70s MAGIC CARPET fame

themselves covering all sonic dimensions in between. On the DJ front expect
to hear a spectrum illuminated by psychedelic, funkoid infused progtronica,
to pagan love vibrations and Indian sitar cover versions. Basically expect
