>>>> that nice Moscow evening. It was a so-called Art-Football festival 
>>>> where we have various amateur artists from different coutries that 
>>>> participate in an international tournament (on that day they were 
>>>> from Estonia and Japan). The programm started at 6 pm, and Heep, 
>>>> as the headliners, entered the stage appr. 10 pm. 22:04, to be 
>>>> exact. By that time there were from 500 to 1000 people in the open 
>>>> hall of the Zelyoniy teatr (green theatre). Here's the setlist: 
>>>> Intro/Against the Odds, Overload, Stealin, Between Two Worlds, 
>>>> Gypsy, Look At Yourself, July Morning, Lady In Black, encore: Easy 
>>>> Livin'. They left the stage at 23:05, so an hour of Heep music was 
>>>> there for all to enjoy. Did they enjoy it? I believe, the ones who 
>>>> were in the front rows, including your humble servant :))), did, 
>>>> as for the seated crowd - later various people told me their 
>>>> different impressions, and here are some of the highlights, if you 
>>>> please: "Grea
>>>> t old songs, not that impressive more modern ones", "Very loud", 
>>>> "The charisma of the old band is almost gone", "Great performance 
>>>> from Mick Box", "Bernie's voice is not good". If you want to know 
>>>> what I make of it, I'll tell you the following: the set was very 
>>>> well balanced and to me this band's tunes go more than well with 
>>>> the rest which are golden classics. Despite being a huge fan of 
>>>> John's, it was good to see Bernie back, and his voice was ok. He 
>>>> himself  appearet to be in a good mood an visibly liked the way 
>>>> moscovites and our city's guests welcomed the band. All other 
>>>> members of the band were almost like Bernie mood-wise, but it 
>>>> seemed to me that they still grieve the loss of the friend. 
>>>> Perhaps, it's only my imagination, but they talked less, no jokes, 
>>>> no funny stuff, even Mick's gestures seemed discreet - or did it 
>>>> only seem to me? But no words about Trevor, no dedications. 
>>>> Honestly, I do not know right or wrong, but that's the way that it 
>>>> was... Dave Rimmer was good aga
>>>> in, now he played a different red-coloured bass (the one used in 
>>>> Padova was black), but knowing that Trevor will never return back 
>>>> made me look at him from a different angle. Yes, he is good and 
>>>> very skilled, nice fingering technique - but he doesn't sing at 
>>>> all, and something is missing in the playing manner... perhaps, 
>>>> yet. Still, he is closer to being a Heep bassist then Russell to 
>>>> being a Heep drummer. But that's another story, they are a very 
>>>> good band overall, and they proved it once again yesterday.
>>>> P.S. There was a new merchandise already, funny pictures of the 
>>>> current line-up (on the flyers we still had Trevor) in white on a 
>>>> black t-shirt, cost appr. 53 dollars. They are very quick, I must 
>>>> admit, and perhaps this approach means only one thing: the show 
>>>> must go on whoever comes and goes. And Heep are busy touring, they 
>>>>  have no time for mourning (which seems right to me, hate cryers 
>>>> and crying itself), they enjoy themselves as they can, and, like 
>>>> one fairytale hero, Carlsson who lives on the roof, they flew away 
>>>>  but promised to return. In October, to be exact.
>>>> P.P.S. I have pictures, if anyone needs.
