I saw B.O.C in 1978 it was in Gainesville Florida I was 12. My friend Cory and I went and got front row seats the day the tickets went on sale. It was the best concert we were 4 feet from the stage. It was so loud. The played Don't Fear The Reaper twice. It was my 1st concert and I will never forget it. I saw them in 98 at The House Of Blues in Orlando FL. They were not as good because they did not have the Bouchard brothers and lost the chemistry at least they still had Allen Lanier.
I almost got to see BOC back then but my militant stepfather wouldn't let me because I was only 11. But I forgive him, because this was around the time when people got trampled to death at the Who concert. But I finally got to see Eric, Buck, & Allen starting in 1992 in Seattle. I saw them 6 times, my favourite one was at the Masonic Temple in Spokane 1994. That's when Eric pointed directly to me and Leo and recited "AND THE JOKE'S ON YOU!" over and over with all the strobe lights and shit!
Is it just me, or would James Hetfield sound really good singing this? I think that chorus is made for him. Wouldnt do a better job than Eric mind you.
terrialan - i was not sure about them as a band, i thought they only had like four good songs. Then i checked out some live videos of stuff like transmaniocon mc, votpw, and stuff off of mirrors, i quckly changed my mind. Seeing them in two weeks!
This was the single off of the Mirrors album. If this song got the airplay that it deserved.. it would have been a major hit. I honestly think that the Arab thing turned off some dj's.
If it was a Joan Crawford I'd be referring to Lanier. This time I'm pretty sure it was Albert. Check out his album Denial of Death with Ross the Boss. It is so friggin good.
omg, haven't heard that since '80! thanx! too bad they didn't catch on a little more than they did. even a little understanding of them and u realize they r one of the best rock bands ever.
Allen Lanier!

I think Hyde from 'That 70's show' is supposed to look like Eric Bloom

I saw BOC for the first time in 1978 At the University of Hawaii Andrews Amphitheater.
I paid 7 bucks to get in. They had lasers and it was loud needless to say it was awesome.
They banned lasers and night time concerts at that venue after that

Yeah I'd like to hear the stuff he did with his band "The Brain Surgeons". I hear it's a little heavier than most B.O.C. stuff which is good.
