you were doing well until you mentioned Muse
there are few more self-satisfied bands out there.

they did some good stuff, but everything for the last few years has been exactly the same.

I wouldn't say it's been the same, there has been progression from a more standard rock sound
to the space-prog-Queen-sound they have today. I prefer the old stuff.

I like space-prog-rock
maybe not the same, but following the same formula. There are much better bands out there doing similar stuff without the recognition.

Nah - I don't think it's them I'm thinking of.

What Hawkwind songs shall I listen to this afternoon?
As an education piece.

"You Shouldn't Do That" from the first side of "In Search of Space"
Don't know whether you'll like that one, but at least it'll keep you busy for 20 minutes.

Hurry on sundown.

Good call, Porkles, very good call.
There's a 10 minute demo version on the Hawkwind Zoo EP that is even better than the released one, if you ask me.

I've heard of it but never been lucky enough to hear it.
I've still got my original copy of Hawkwind. Bought when I was about 17 from a charity shop.

Or perhaps
The aubergine that ate Rangoon. I love that one.

Nah - too far to travel....
I think I'm in Cyprus anyway.

shame
I could've been tempted

Go anyway.
It'll be great.

I too hanker for the "earlier stuff"
but I must take issue with you disliking a band for being self-satisfied

I just get the impresison there is a certain amount of laurel-resting-on going on in the Muse camp
plus, I saw a recent documentary where they went back to their home town Teignmouth. They came across as complete wankers, and Teignmouth is a shithole full of cunts.
