Hmm...Consider the source of the quote.  Around the time of that
tour, I think BOC were SLIGHTLY bigger than Sab, certainly in terms
of record sales, if not touring revenue, but I suspect BOC had the
edge there too.  Hard to be objective for me, as I live in what was
always a BOC stronghold.  Maybe away from the Northeast, Sab was
a bigger draw...
