Hawkwind is an English rock band and one of the earliest space rock groups. The band was formed in 1969 by ex busker and blues man Dave Brock, who intended to marry simple three-chord rock with experimental electronic music. He cites his influences for the band at the time as The Moody Blues, Steve Miller Band and the krautrock scene of Kraftwerk, Neu! and particularly Can.
Although Brock has remained Hawkwind’s musical focus, primary songwriter and “captain of the ship”, the band’s long and muddled history is marked by in-fighting between members and a revolving door of line-up changes. Prominent band members have included Lemmy Kilmister (who would famously go on to form Motörhead), Nik Turner, Robert Calvert, Huw Lloyd-Langton, ex-Gong synth wizard Tim Blake, Simon House, Cream’s Ginger Baker, Harvey Bainbridge and Alan Davey.
Hawkwind continue to record and tour to this day, with the current line-up consisting of Dave Brock, Mr. Dibs, Tim Blake, Richard Chadwick and Niall Hone.

Close pals of Woofit will know that Woofit has recently returned from the Planet Tarmac and is recording his observations exclusively for the Last FM collective - Many Tarmacians have become obsessed with the cult of celebrity. There are some who long to be plucked out of obscurity and attain celebrity status. It has become increasingly difficult to define what is a celebrity on Tarmac as it is possible to ascend to the position of celebrity from association with a recognised and established celebrity or via reality television. This is of great concern to the elite celebrities who do not wish their elevated social status to be contaminated by what they consider to be under qualified , limited shelf life (just over 15 minutes in some cases) lesser celebrities.

The elite or A list celebrities decided that they should define their status in terms of popularity and wealth , thus creating a recognised hierarchy for celebrities to adhere to. Lesser celebrities would know their place and would rarely encounter a celebrity from the upper echelons of fame. More recently lower status celebrities, particularly those of middle caste status have united with the lower caste celebrities and have taken direct and sometimes violent action to overthrow the elite celebrities. The response by the elite celebrities was to declare a state of emergency, introduce martial law and employ death squads to eliminate the ring leaders. It is not unknown on Tarmac for a lesser celebrity to be dragged out of a televised film or music award ceremony and unceremoniously shot.
