[Heeplist] Fwd: Re[2]: All of a sudden... Heep in Moscow. Live. Again.

[Tapio Minkkinen]

This was the first gig after Trevor's funeral three days earlier so I  
can imagine it must not have been easy for the guys to take the stage  
but they pull it off with routine. This reminds me of the two shows I  
saw in the Spring of 2000 that happened just after Mick' wife had  
died, they weren't very cheerful at those gigs either.

I wouldn't like to worry anyone but I just received info that their  
gig in Tampere 2nd August has been cancelled. They're supposed to do  
three shows here in the beginning of August. There's on info yet what  
the reason is and does this affect all shows or it just the one gig  
but I'm waiting for some new info.
