Subject: [Heeplist] Uriah Heep Miramar Beach Concert May 4th 2019

Not sure if Uriah Heep's second night on tour has been reviewed yet, but here goes...Oh what a night it was! There are not enough words to describe how great they were last night. They woke up the little town of Miramar Beach on the Emerald Coast of Florida and everyone seemed to really enjoy their performance. The first night of Heeps' performance in the Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood Fl was one of the largest venues that we have seen Heep perform in, but last night's venue was probably the smallest venue at the Village Door Concert Hall in Miramar Beach. Not sure how many attended the concert, but I am guessing somewhere between 150-200 people. The audience was composed of locals, vacationers that just happened to be dining there, and folks that were actual Uriah Heep fans. Still do not know exactly how NW Florida landed Uriah Heep, but all I know is we are truly the lucky ones! I do not know whether there were any of the meet and greet packages offered at the Miramar Beach performance, but with the small venue and being within 10 feet of the band, we had our own meet and greet just by being there. Bernie said at the beginning of the show "Welcome to our private little party' which is what the evening felt like. We witnessed Uriah Heep in their purest form at this very small and intimate venue. The band played as if they were playing for the large masses. All of the band seemed to enjoy themselves, and performed at the top of their game. The band played for one and one-half hours and gave us 12 songs. The songs from the Uriah Heep May 4th non-J.P. concert included: 1.) Grazed by heaven,
2.) Too scared to run, 3.) Living the dream, 4.) Take away my soul,
5.) Knocking at my door, 6.) Rainbow demon, 7.) Rocks in the road,
8.) Gypsy, 9.) Look at yourself, 10.) July morning, 11.) Sunrise, and
12.) Easy Living. I will have to say "Rocks in the road" was one of my favorites that they performed and should be their new anthem. Each and every band member shined on that tune, but every song sounded amazing.

Seeing the opening night of Uriah Heep with J.P. versus last night without J.P. confirms what we all already knew to be the case. If you can, support Heeps' efforts to tour with J. P. so that they can get some good exposure, but if Heep comes to or near your town without J.P. - run and do not walk to get those tickets!

Our Uriah Heep 2019 North American tour epic journey started on Friday (May 3rd) for the opening night and we have just returned home. We covered 1200 miles in 3 days with 18 hours in the car. The mighty Heep was worth every mile and every minute in the car. Enjoy your time with Uriah Heep!
