Artist impression of how the new Alan and Dave may look

The "replacement" Huw relaxes backstage before a short acoustic set

The bands "new audience" await a sonic attack

At least Simon House looks better in this guise rather than that blue wig and tights get up he was wearing a few years ago!

Even Stacia is going to get in on the act, albeit in dummy form

As you can see the stage can just as easily be set up indoors as well as out, here Dave can be seen making final adjustments before the curtains go up, also note the extensive lighting rig to both sides of the stage

OK, so this might be a bit far fetched but actually it does serve a purpose - the next time your wife, husband, partner etc tells you what a loser you are for being a Hawkwind fan may I suggest that you head them in the direction of some of these ventriloquist sites, they will quickly realise that you are at worst slightly eccentric compared with these nutters!
