Subject: Heap (sic) 'tron

Seems the story of what happened to the Uriah Heep 'tron ought to be
told by members of UH themselves. I'd like to hear that angle of it.
It'd be really interesting if the band reported it stolen, and if
the first seller in Minnesota was legit to begin with.

Kean found the plexiglass M-400 twelve years ago in Texas after it
had been stolen, and I'll tell ya...I'm still on the lookout for Jon
Spencer Blues Explosion's stolen vintage Theremin...lifted from
backstage at a show they did in Seattle a few years ago.

By the way, a nice rendition of Genesis' "Live In New York City" by
And You Know Us By The Trail Of Dead came across my desk last week
as part of a three-song teaser from an upcoming full-length CD early
next year. No Mellotron, but they've got the Gabriel warbling voice
down wired. Next month is the 30th anniversary of The Lamb Lies Down
On Broadway album.
