Talking of nice people. I've been in contact with John Hawken who tells me that there is a possibility that he will be reuniting with the band at some point later in the year. I have of course, urged him to consider full use of the tron if at all possible. Check out his web-site at www.johnhawken.com
Even at the peak of their success, each of them were open and relaxed about sharing time and a beer or two with us mere mortals. In the mid seventies I remember sitting on the pavement/kerb, at the back of the New Theatre in Oxford talking to John as I would have done with any of my friends at the time.
Nice chaps, all of them.
