Hawkwind to appear at Green Man Festival
In what is becoming an
increasingly busy summer we can now confirm that Hawkwind will be playing
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
site by
clicking here.
On Sunday night in the
Far Out Tent Amorphous Androgynous will be performing as a
band in their own right as well as curating 11 hours of Monstrous
Psychedelic Bubble cosmic space music. Bands will include legendary
space rockers Hawkwind, beautiful folk from the
mellifluously voiced Alisha Sufit (of 70s MAGIC CARPET fame
), The Yellow Moon Band hot off the space launch pads of
last year’s album 'Travels Into Several Remote Nations Of The World”.
Nick Nicely will enthrall with his colour saturated
universe of psychedelic songs and Cranium Pie will cover
the space-prog end of the MPB spectrum, with Amorphous Androgynous
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
the unexpected to liberate your mind, soul and your feet from Andy
Votel and the Monstrous Psychedelic impresario himself Gaz
Cobain! With lighting by the Bardo States it'll be
an 11 hr visual and sonic feast!

assured we will endeavour to have it up and running again as soon as
possible, in an ideal world you won't even notice the change.
In the event of a more
prolonged down time any breaking news will be posted on myspace and the
