I thought that was the performer's name. Also, in the Bible King David lusted after Bathsheba. Her husband's name was Uriah.

Lighter Side of Serious Bands:
"Nickname Of Fans"
You know that major fans of the Grateful Dead used to follow the band from town to town, going to every Dead show they could? They are called "Deadheads" and they are proud of that apellation. Tragically Hip fans are "Hipheads", there are "Phishheads" (eat them up, yum!), Dick Dale devotees are dubbed "Dickheads" (lousy label : ( ) and Uriah Heep fans are denoted as "Heepheads".
