BOC: VH1's Where are they now?

[Stephen Swann]

Well, VH1 just managed to do a remarkable segment on BOC.  As part of
their "Where are they now?" series, they did a short segment on 3OC,
still touring, blah blah blah... managing never *once* to mention Al,
Joe, The Brain Surgeons, The X Brothers, or even Soft White
Underbelly/Stalk Forrest (despite the fact that the video clips
repeatedly focussed on Al and Joe).  Also, although they referred to
Eric as "the group's vocalist", every single song clip they showed had
Buck singing.  ;-)

It's really galling that they didn't mention Al or Joe, because it's
normal for a "Where are they now?" to feature a short segment on what
*all* the original band members are currently doing, and what Al and
Joe have been doing is *still writing and performing*.  And I'm sure
that a mention on VH1 would have exposed the Brain Surgeons and the X
Brothers to several hundred thousand potential fans.

Argh.  Nice research, VH1.
