[h-e-w] Removing lines that match a pattern |

I would like to remove the lines of a (very long) file that start with a
specific pattern. Do I need to write a lisp function, or does anyone know a
way to do it with regexp?
I've tried
Replace regexp: SOME HEADER\(.*\) with:
(just hitting RET after the with), but this only removes the text of the
line, not the line itself.
Unfortunately, I don't know Emacs Lisp, but maybe this is a good time to
start learning?
Thanks for all your help,
--Matt
