Almost the classic Gong line-up, but for the late Pierre Moerlen, who will certainly watch with interest from the drummer cloud where he resides now. Do you know who will fill in for him? Pip Pyle perhaps?

Nice to know Here and Now are alive and kicking and supported by Joie Hinton of the Ozric Tentacles now. He should fit in well. Also nice to see Eat Static are still up and around. And a new Mother Gong line-up too! It all sounds very promising indeed. Are there any plans for this event to be recorded?

To keep informed about the latest developments, go to the Gong homepage:

Not sure, but I am on the list for people interested in group rates.  You can get more info about the Melkweg and surrounding areas on the Gong site:  http://www.planetgong.co.uk/
