No one's gonna out BOC me... :D

I still remember first hearing Hot Rails to Hell in 73 or 74. It was BOC all the way. I probably saw them 10 time in the 70s and saw them again several times in the early 90s.

BOC and Captain Beyond were the bands.

Realizing no one gives an eff, here's my small tribute to BOC... Cities on Flame

Wellsir, now I've got me something cool to look up & check out. :) Thanks! :thu:


Sir? My dad type my post? ;) I'm Derek and the only thing farther from sir is Paris Hilton from beautiful! ;)

Check out the entire Imaginos release, bunch of cool songs. All about Desdinova and his quest, has a little bit of a Lovecraft feel when it talks about the creatures from the Sea.

While that is good, my vote would go to Pink Floyd's, "And the worms ate into his brain."



GTFO poser, this thread has no room for any other color band. BOC has taken up all the space with their awesome.

That was so funny that day, it only took me like 4 hours to figure that out... and I was hoping you would laugh... :) You know I am still looking on eBay for a 7 string Fender Stagemaster, how are you liking yours? Do you still have it???



hell yes i do, i love it. i've played fenders all my life, so making the transition from 6 to 7 was a breeze and i felt right at home with it very quickly.

Some great guitar stuff in there, once you get past the cheese factor. Then the cheese factor will kinda grow on you. Great playing. Great toans.
