I'm hearing rumors that Lethal has reformed
That would be a sick ass show
Not sure as being a Headliner,but would be a killer Mid slot band

Heir Apparent
I'm one of the few that prefered One Small Voice to Graceful Inheretence
Kinda a blip on the scene,but made a long lasting impression on me
would love to see them as well
 
Lethal - Without question - YES!

Heir Apparent - depends on the lineup. I read that they have reformed, but this lineup only has one player from any of their previous discs and that's guitar player (Terry Gorle). The vocals sold me on this band in the past, but neither of those guys is with them now. I wouldn't really care to see them at PP if all they are going to do is play the back catalog without any of the bandmembers that perfomed on those discs (save TG). If they put out a new disc with the new lineup and it lives up to their past work, then certainly I'd like to see them play the new and the old at PP.

Heir Apparent still exist? Dammit, I gotta get out more. One Small Voice was helluva an album. Singer was/is dead on for Geoff Tate. I'd kill to see these guys.

The vocalist would be Steve Benito (One Small Voice, Triad studio demos) He's not with the reformed lineup and neither is their original vocalist, Paul Davidson (Grateful Inheritance).

I'd (almost) kill to see Heir Apparent with Steve Benito! One Small Voice is such a great CD... I wonder what he's doing now? Probably opened up a few Starbucks franchises. ;)
 
Heir Apparent – I'd have to reserve judgment on this one, if it's true that they only have one member left from the original line-up. I loved "One Small Voice." Unfortunately, I bought this one on cassette, loaned it out, and never got it back. (I’m much more selfish about loaning out books and music these days…)

Lethal – Yes, assuming the latest incarnation includes Tom Mallicoat. There have been rumors that Lethal is back in the studio, but Mallicoat posted over on the Lethal MySpace page that he was announcing a “new” project soon. (???)
 
Yes to Both bands.

Heir Apparent is still around, the new singer is great. They have live stuff on thier website with him in case you want to check it out.

Lethel, OF COURSE. Rumour has it they have reformed, but I haven't seen or heard much.



Both, great bands and worthy of a slot.
 
We just returned from headlining KIT VII, and two shows in Greece.

As for ProgPower, cover our airfare and hotels, and we'll be there.
The "powers that be" can email me if they're interested in having us.

BTW, Rock Hard Magazine just published a hardcover book of the top 500 rock/metal albums of all time... I'm extremely honored that "graceful inheritance" sits at #188.

If momentum builds as a result of this latest incarnation (built specifically for this last trip), we just might dedicate the extra time for a new album...

Cheers,
Terry Gorle

Here's a 20MEG video of "Keeper of the Reign" from KIT VII on November 4th...

HEIR APPARENT-Keeper of the Reign - KITVII

This was about 80 minutes into the set, and it was our first gig in almost 3 years...

This extended version is based on the original 1983 arrangement that contains a bass solo, combined with Steve Benito's vocal lines used on the 1987 demo version that I eventually released on the TRIAD live/demo CD in 2000.

Peter was fighting a major headcold during this trip, but this should give you an idea...
