BOC: Born to be Wild, etc.

[John A Swartz]

>Final point:  Do anyone else find it strange that the band only has time to
do about half of their usual set, and apparently has seen fit to leave the
drum solo in?  And this is the Nth drummer, too, not like someone who needs
the spotlight.  I've never seen the guy play, but come on...Godzilla could
use a diet even in the regular set.


Good point - drum solos (and bass solos too as don't forget Danny's
"Monster Bass" solo precedes the drum solo) in such a shortened set make
little sense.  They really should eliminate it to squeeze in one more
song.

>Come to think of it, it seems to me that what replaced it at show's end was
DFTR, which was another tune that I felt was not the best show-closer.

Well, I understand your logic, but since in actuality DFtR really isn't
the show-closer (hey, most "encores" are planned - how many times has BOC
NOT taken an encore in the past 20 years?) I think it works well where it
is (if it really has to be anywhere in the set, which, of course, it does).
