BOC: Oysters in Utica.

[John Halligan]

        Theo, I think you hit the nail on the head with EB.  I wrote up a
review of this show for the Imaginos site, but didn't mention much about
this.  Eric's performance was similar when I saw the band in Buffalo last
summer.  I was just glad that he sang at all.  Did you hear someone towards
the end of the show yell, "Let Eric sing!"?  The first new song was Harvest
Moon, like you thought.  I definately think it could be a hit on Classic
Rock radio if they give it a chance.  I was hoping that they would play See
You In Black, but with Eric's voice the way it is, I'm afraid that would
have been too much to ask.  Thanks to Chuck (Hi Chuck!), who I traded tapes
with, I have heard HM, Power Underneath Despair, and Cold Grey Light of
Dawn, all of which are impressive.  Live For Me, the other new one they
played in Utica, reminded me of Buck's material with his Red & The Black
band.  It's a power-pop song.  I liked it for what it was.
