[Heeplist] US Management for Heep?

[Bob Winward]

It does not appear they have a team that works seriously on this.  It just
seems like shows are booked haphazardly and the only thought given is
convenience with travel plans. For example I had predicted they would play
east coast dates right after the cruise, since they were here already.  Then
when I heard they were doing shows in California, I thought that was great
as they skip the west coast.  Then Sheri pointed out that they fly to
Australia after that, so it makes sense but you can definitely see the
pattern..

As far as hooking with another band, who is really big anymore that can draw
crowds and play big arenas?
