[Heeplist] Is it over for Heep?

[Tapio Minkkinen]

Hi Bob

I'll be seeing them in the beginning of August here in Finland. Their  
first gig out of three was cancelled all of a sudden but it turned out  
to be a positive thing for me personally as it wasn't cancelled  
completely but just moved from Tampere to Helsinki, my home town so  
instead of travelling two hours to Tampere I can take a 20 min. bus  
ride to the city to see Heep!

One reason for the lighter their gig schedule could be that they were  
planning on recording the next studio album? At leas this is I am  
assuming that's why as it was told earlier that they'd record a new  
one later this year. I have no idea if Dave Rimmer will become the new  
permanent member or is he just a temporary replacement. Soon I'll get  
a chance to check him out at the gigs.

Heep matters a lot at least to me.
