    Wow! I'm a huge Uriah Heep fan, so I'm loving this!


    BTW, are Atrox still going?

    These guys are quite good and quite a lot of fun when not on stage, too. Saw them last year at Terra Incognita. Hope to run across them again.

    Yes they are and so do I! I'll certainly be looking for this.

    BTW, Eric - how the hell are you? Really hope you get booked again on this side of the pond (although we're hoping to go back to Norway in 2014 to visit our friends in Magic Pie again). All the best to the band from the old man (and his young friend Lopez, I'm sure!).

    Would they be a proper fit for Prog Day, I wonder? I have no means to purchase music these days, but AIA have been on my radar ever since people raved about them at last year's Terra Incognita. They are on my list... a very long list... of Prog I'd love to have to have in my collection if fortune (or just a goddam job) should ever smile on me again.

    I think they would positively kill in North Carolina if invited. They are all (as Lopez said) just great dudes and a lot of fun offstage, and can play their asses off imo.

    What the Geezer said, Mel. They would fit in right nicely at ProgDay.
