Cure for that is don't watch Uriah Heep. Apparantly though they're actually quite metal live in some respects. They tune their guitars into a heavier tone and make more of an effort than their records suggest. So many bands here that I'd love to see personally. Paul Di'anno, Tank, Diamond Head, Pagan Altar, Marseille (the guitarist was a kids tv show presenter), Cloven Hoof and of course UFO. I saw UFO at Graspop last year but I only caught the last song and the end of the song before that.
