[Heeplist] Only 1 original member?

[Filip Björner]

Foreigner plays att Sweden Rock this summer. I didnt have them on my prio list, since I thought they were an AOR band in the same vein as Toto and Journey. My prio number one att srf this summer is Hawkwind, and the next on the list is Twisted Sister doing their farewell tour, then Queen with Adam Lambert. Not that interested in Vanilla Fudge, despite their important influence on Heep etc., but I can change my mind if I hear something from them on youtube which is not to lame...Toto played there last summer and that gig was horrible. They messed up Africa to an uninteresting jazz session. (Saw Toto live in Globen in the 90ies, and on that gig they played everything well.) The only song they delivered well last summer was Hold The Line.
