BOC - 1/25/96 in Santa Cruz

Brenda & Martyn:

Having finally wandered out here to the fringes, to find more erudite
BOC discussion, I find a question I can actually help with, even after
having been here only a few days...

The BOC on-line shirts were, of course, made for all BOC on-line folk.
However, the extremely active contingent on-board AOL, including
Buck & Eric, are likely the largest motivating factor behind getting
the t-shirts to press.  Buck is also printing a sharp 'Flat Out' t-shirt,
and you can get info at <DharmaT at aol.com>...

The fellow at the table could very well have been Bolle Gregmar,
the focal point of the BOC fan club, which also has an address
on AOL at <BOCFanClub at aol.com>.  If not, it was one his
'Agents Of Fortune', and his absence after the show suggests
that he might have left with the band (especially if it was Bolle)...

>Amazingly enough, after several years of delicate negotiations,
>a list T-shirt was produced (two in fact).  However the shirt which

>somewhere in cyberspace (probly AOL)

Yes sir, there is.  There exist on AOL folders for BOC, Buck Dharma,
The Stalk-Forrest Group (brand new), & Soft White Underbelly.  Les
has been posting to the SWU folder of late.  Eric & Buck regularly
show up in the BOC & Buck folders, to keep us apprised of the goings
on.  There is also a moderated monthly 'open chat' on the 2nd Tuesday
each month.  Eric & Buck frequently show there as well.  The BOC AOL
contingent consists primarily of quite a few long-time, dedicated fans,
whom I feel honored to have discovered.  For about the last decade I have
felt like the 'Sole Survivior' up here Seattle-way, and the finding of the
alt.m.boc late this summer has been a liberating experience...

I hope this answers all your questions,
and please...don't hold my mail server address against me...

I came here primarily out of interest in the Imaginos saga,
and hoping to find analytical & speculative discussion of same.
Looks like I came to the right place... =)
