Ford advert

[whoowhoop]

I caught the new Ford advert tonight and it took me straight back to my teens and herbal cigarettes.

When was this? I remember Hawkwind but was never a great fan.

This was my thing as a teenager http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rs3kKHhG4m0

It would be about 72 or 73.
They would play almost anywhere that let them in.
Saw a lot of good ( and a lot of s*** ) bands around then, mostly for nothing or very cheap tickets.
Saw Head, hands and feet too and never realised that half of them were Chas n Dave.

I spent a week of my life at a Hawkwind concert one night in Newcastle!!

Never again....

I must admit it did make me smile when I realised it was Hawkwind as the background music to the advert. I still listen to them to this day and am proud to say I introduced them to the Viking. We even went and saw them at Cambridge Corn Exchange a few years ago, sadly it was too loud which made me feel very old.

First time I ever saw them was at the Corn Exchange back in either '72 or '73

To this day the Hawkwind version of Gimme Shelter is one of my all time favourites.

I still listen to them to this day

Likewise, although it always seems to be a challenge getting time to listen to anything properly these days. I have also seen them many times over the years - you never know what or who you're going to get from tour to tour so there's always an element of surprise.

I mostly listen via Youtube these days.
