BOC: Cover Band Pondering

[Hall, Russell J]

THFTR is a hilaroius CD.  Especially with Eric's intro.

"...they came from an island.  It wasn't wide, but it was long..."
"...then came the fateful song, "Don't fear the Reaper", an ode to farm
equipment." or something like that.

Career of Evil done as a marching jody - ye gods!
