I'll give some love to The Enid although I enjoy Six Pieces and Aerie Faerie Nonsense a bit more in their catalogue.

^ The above is a main stage managers list of who played when at Stonehenge 84; i dont remember Wishbone Ash! I think i remember the Tony Mc Phee (ex Groundhogs) Blues band, Underground Zero (kinda Hawkwind-ish) and Nigel Mazlyn Jones. Tredegar were a NWOBHM outfit, pretty good and Trilogy supported Pallas and Solstice on the 'Brave new world' package tour around that time too..

No doubt this is the ultimate Stonehenge.

Get ready for the 40 year anniversary movie, Spinal Tap II, to be released in 2024.

Looking forward to that!   Having seen them live twice now, they're about as real a fictitious band as you can be.  

The sequel should be titled Spinal Tap 11

I haven't heard of Here & Now before, so I'm going to check them out, right Here and right Now. They sound like my kind of music, and they're British too! Smile

it is the name of a novel by Ray Bradbury (as far as I know the movie is based on it) and originally a Shakespeare quote from the opening scene of "Macbeth" with the three witches:

"by the pricking of my thumbs
something wicked this way comes"

The Enid, all the way. A quote from Shakespear's Scottish play, a great album, a great novel by Bradbury, and a great film version from 1983. Alan Stivell performing at Stonehenge would be among the best things ever.

I love "Choose Your Masques," but I'm also that guy who loves '80s Hawkwind.

Anyway out of these i'll have to say Here & Now and Roy Harper (though 'work of heart' was nearly 2 years old by that point and not a favourite of mine). 'Fantasy shift' tracks sound fantastic live but the studio lp sounds flat and boxy to me.. shame.

I watched Here and Now but I don't remember a thing about Man, but it was Stonehenge.  I remember watching the Poison Girls the same evening.  Yes, I felt I had missed out on earlier 'henges.
