 Brad,

   Ever since the "rumours"article in Hot Metal, this has been one of the
talking points in the country.  Basically, I have spoken to Steve Schenk
and EB about it and the result is: No they ain't coming.
  It would require an entrepenuer (sp?) to put money UP FRONT for the band
to come over.  A few ideas were passed around recently, for eg. a tour
with other old metal bands like UFO or Uriah Heep, in order to guarantee a
better reaction.  (But thank GOD we don't have to see them on the wheeze
tour!).
  Eric says that the band would love to tour here, it is just the money
thing.

  Anybody got a spare 20-30 grand?
