[Heeplist] SellersVill PA song impressions

Mon May 27 16:31:17 EDT 2019

But where should it take place?
I would like to have it in Berlin - perhaps in the Spandau citadel - a 
nice place for open airs (It has been the blueprint to Fort McHenry, 
Baltimore)
But I think other fans would like to have it at another place.
And it would be hard for Lady Heep to carry this event through all the 
world.
