BOC: new info

[John A Swartz]

Gleaned the following info from Jack's BOC bulletin board - check out his
BOC site at http://www.j-and-a.com/boca.html

1.  Buck answered some online fans' questions.  Biggest question probably is
regarding "Ezekiel's Wheel".  Buck reports that final mixing will take place
this fall (maybe a bit of re-recording) with an anticipated release early
next year.  Many of the fans obviously treat this news with great excitement
and believe that the album will be released as advertised.  The cynics
would argue that this is yet another delay of the album that will never
come.  I'm personally optimistic that the album will be released, and I
suspect that early next year is realistic (and better than false promises
of having the album released in a few months) - but you all can draw your
own conclusions.

2. A recent review of a NY show was very favorable - most noteworthy is
that while Buck is still doing most of the singing, Eric's share of
vocal duties is increasing.  He is also reported to be more animated on-
stage these days - a sign that he may be enjoying himself (which, for
awhile, he appeared to be a bit restrained -- perhaps emotionally affected
by his vocal troubles).
