Hawkwind Tribute.....but what songs?

[Number6]

After a hiatus from playing the bass for nearly 20 years i've started playing again.

Me my brother and a mate are going to jam some Hawkwind songs.....but which one's are essential for a tribute set list?

We already have the obligatory Silver Machine and Masters of the Universe on the list and i love Hassan I Sahba.....

What should we add??

Sonic Attack

Seriously though, I'm not a Hawkwind aficionado but I think Quark... has to be in there, along with Hurry On Sundown.

[discreet]

[i]Born To Go[/i].... pretty much anything from [i]Space Ritual[/i], really.
[i]The Golden Void[/i] is another...

I think the only thing that will be wobbling about on our stage will be the band lol

[RhysP]

Lord of Light, Brainstorm, Orgone Accumulator (pretty much all of "Space Ritual" really), & Spirit of the Age.

As a long-term fan (first saw them live in '74) I would agree with 'Space Ritual'.
I think a lot of fans would see that as the benchmark for a tribute band.
Good luck with the project!!!

Well energy simulators turn your eyeballs into craters.....but an orgone accumulator is a back brain stimulator.....so i reckon that's the way to go.....

Personally I'd dump Silver Machine, I've never liked it.

Hawkwind trib and no Silver Machine? You'd better have giant pendulous boobs to make up for that loss.

I would also never do silver machine, and if I was watching a Hawkwind tribute band that one would the time for a piss and a beer

Shouldn't do that on the other hand would be good, and I agree, motorhead, lots of levitation, master of the universe.
And damnation alley, why not.
