Bolle IMed me last night and we chatted a bit...here are his pertinent
comments on the Stalk-Forrest disc and the other upcoming BOC material:

>>I'm all stoked it is fianlly all out.  The Booklet is awesome minus a few
things that got through despite my proof reading and remarks... so we got the
I'm On the Lamb lyric off the BOC LYric Book, even though I did send them the
transcripts for both of those versions by Oaxaca & SFG... go figure....

Re: whether he would be doing the packaging for the remasters:

>>I had it all planned, but that's not happening, in fact, Bruce Dickinson is
doing it all himself even without Steve Schenck's OK, so who knows what's
gonna happen there...  i'm not evcen sure they're gonna put the
blueoystercult.com address on, so who knows what to expect.
 TUBULAR 1:  I had it all finalized and planned and then was given a cold
hand, Like, back off... which kinda pissed me off, because I am The Man to
make things look right!
 TUBULAR 1:  Schenck told me that because it's all being done in NY and I
don't live there, they (SONY/LEGACY) are not interested in having my input...

Re: the extra tracks on the remasters:

>> the trax were all my selections :-)
 TUBULAR 1:  You're gonna be pleased with the lot... even though the albums
won't have Lyrics enclosed nor too many exciting new and or previously unseen
pictures....
 TUBULAR 1:  I wanted all the originbal Columbia promo Adverts to be include
along with the presskits and 8x 10 photos that original came out with each
album... some of this may happen but not enough...
I also wanted them to include all Picsleeve singles from the entire world
that we can find and know of... that too was OK, but not complete, which
kinda screws up my symmetry there...
Oh well...

Some interesting nuggets of info in there. :-)
