Yeah, I saw this one on Faceache and had my say, there. It's A) a very cheap form of marketing to raise the profile and advertise a US tour (or two). It's B) a finally showdown of two cantankerous old duffers - or C) A fuckin' soap opera.

Sinead O'Connor and Miley Cirus take note.


EDITED for a typo, only.

An open letter from Nik Turner to Dave Brock:

"Dearest Dave,

I know we've been at loggerheads for many a year now, but as your elder by three quarters of a year, I feel I should use my greater stock of experience to be your moral guide in troubled times. I watched the newest Hawklords video with avid interest, but your state of undress throughout saddened me. Don't you realise, Dave, that that team of parasitical vultures- the agents, the video directors, the managers and the record execs- are using your body to sell records for them. Your body is your temple. To violate it with the perverted erotica of the latest Hawklords video...it saddens me.

Please, please, Dave: do not use your body to sell records anymore. Just keep the clothes on. Your hot curves are for you and your wife alone. Not for perverted onanists to oogle at.

A concerned former friend,

Nik Turner"

I think it's a bit of all three, really. You'll know as well as I do that being in any band - even a non-professional one - can be like being in a soap opera at times. If Turner is telling the truth about trying to register the name on behalf of all the original members rather than just himself, though, I can see his point.
