* We have now our traditional "help page" up at: http://www.uriah-heep.com/newa/mbp2004help.php . You can see here all the info you'll need for finding a good hotel close to the venue (all price ranges); how to get to London by car, train, bus, airplane, helicopter, walking or on horseback; a map of the underground/tube (subway for North Americans, metro for French and others!), et cetera. And soon, the most important info: where the Heep'n'Beer events will happen (most likely, at the already traditional O'Neill pub right beside the Shepherd's Bush Empire!).

- Uriah Heep will definitely be back in Holland on May 27th as part of the Bêkefeesten in Bathmen! Also in this festival: The Sweet and Action in DC, a top AC/DC cover band.
