BOC.com Band Picture

[gary shindler]

Buck was the only one that did any signing when I saw them in Newkirk, Oklahoma. It was sad that it was a country music honky tonk. One idiot I know complained because there wasn't a light show. I thought they were a lot better than when I saw them on the "Revolution by Night" tour.

Best Allen moments I can remember are one in Randolph, NJ in the late 80s or very early 90s when I went back stage to give him some photos I had taken of him at a gig a few months before and he darted away, then came back up to me, took the picture from my hand, gave me a quick 'thanks.' and ran off out of sight.  It reminded me of trying to feed a stray cat.

Best keyboard moment was at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ early 90s when he started playing a medley of an original moody piece (similar to the intro to Joan Crawford) along with the themes to Twin Peaks and The X-Files, it was very cool!
