BOC - Ooops on EW

[BREVARD, Adrian R.]

>As for the setlist I don't know but maybe we are overlooking the obvious

>No, but every 2 or 3 years would be good...

Thats usually the timing for replacing the drummer or bass player which
leads back to "here kid learn the basics and a 1 and a 2..."

>It occurs to me that while we would all like to hear something new if we do

hear.  It >will have to justify someones investment to get another.
Maybe we are better >off without it.

>Nope - I disagree.  Even if it turns out to be the last album BOC puts

Ah man I really didn't mean to start this one again; but once started
this old one gets a life of its own and then snowballs until people get
pissed.  Your right on this count better to have it if its the last one
or the first of a few more.  Wonder what happens though if EW goes over
mega big and BOC believes it can run the arena circuit based on its
sucess.  Do we get more or less concert opportunities?
