Mick makes playing look far too easy – i love the way he looks up on stage playing and frowns quizically – waits for the crowd to look up and then winks at them when there’s nowt there – me and my mates were rolling around laughing at that.
One of our best priceless national treasures – awesome musician.. and so is Trevor – as a bass player myself one of my great influences. Vastly underrated outside of rock fraternity. July morning still gives me goosebumps when I hear it. wonderful to have such a great album (salisbury) named after your home town!! KNIGHTHOODS i say”

I have to agree with Richard, Planet Rock sucks! How can they ignore such a classic rock band? They hardly ever play the mighty Uriah Heep, they are so rudely underrated!

Planet Rock playing “Magician’s Birthday”? That’s a rarity, I assume it was done on the RockBlok, it’s a shame they didn’t play “Sweet Lorraine” when I did my RockBlok last May.

Dear Mick, every week I can hardly wait to read your column, it is brilliant and “makes my week”, it makes me laugh every time! I was a Spurs supporter when I lived in London, and even in Germany I still follow what they are doing. Keep going to make my days, weeks, months, years! Heepster forever! Best regards, Sabine fromMunich, and P.S. should you speak/see Lee, please give him my best regards! Thanks!

Excellent read again and as a die-hard Heep fan it is fun to read other things than the life around UH. Keep up the good work and `appy days mate.

I’m not interested in football myself, but apart from that Mick’s columns are still a great read! Mick is not only a talented musician, but also a nice and friendly guy, great to talk to, and a good story teller. Keep them columns coming! And of course that great Heep music

Ah, I must say something now, after reading 18 fine columns! Isn´t mr. Box a sweetheart I read his studio diary when UH were recording Wake The Sleeper, it was freaking awesome! I´ve always liked his writing. Keep up the good work, and share that ´appiness, mr. B! Love, Remy from Finland.
PS. We hope to see ya soon!
