Age of 11 also about 6 not survive christmas attention recall the Strawbs opening and performing a fine, albeit short set. B.O.C. was a good as ever. The crowd really enjoyed their music...they play a great set... and I got excellent recording. This was first time seeing BOC. I was aware of them, but friends were hip to them even before me, from the first 2 albums. This would definitely be pre laser days, heavy on the stobe lights. I came aboard between Secret Treaties, and this show as apparently as they were releasing OYFOOYK. Pretty memorable show. Faces were I think nearing their end, at least live. was still rock and roll and not a solo act. who everyone knows from the Rolling Stones, was still the band. Bishop was very good also. This was a year before Fooled Around and Fell even. Though he did have a funny getting a lot of airplay at the time. I have the title wrong Yes Yes Yes. The one with the lyric like the says, every refuge has it's price. The other memorable thing people remember about New Haven Coliseum. The parking lot was on the roof, and you had to drive up a helix that curved sharply about about 15 circles on the way up. Concerning the actual release date of OYFOOYK, I was just listening to a bootleg entitled Providence Treaties that was recorded on at the Providence Civic Center Rhode Island. introduces 's as a that be on their upcoming live album which he says be released sometime this week. this is helpful. Thanks for that info. Well since the only other gig February was the next day New Haven, I think it seems obvious then that OYFOOYK must have come out on either Thursday 27 Feb or Friday 28th Feb because the record was released February, those are the only two days left that month for that to happen How do I know it wasn't on the 26th? Well, as reports, on the 25th said the LP would be out sometime this week he didn't say it'd be out tomorrow... This show took place at Bergen Community College Paramus, NJ, which is Bergen County, New Jersey. As you also have listed, the Gang with the Dictators opening were also on the I would guess that's your anecdotal BOC Dictators 1974 date because BOC didn't play BCC 1974. I worked there and was the person who recommended bands to the student activities director. Click this link to some of photos from that night poster hangs 's room he met the band 2004 and had copy of Secret Treaties signed by the band. Spokane, WA. Good gig but truss broke. This refers to the fact that when the lighting truss was being lowered, one side was being brought down faster than the other and it up, then slipped about 5 ft... This caused a flex near the center that broke some welds and the whole thing then came crashing down, kicking the large lifts out from under either end of it... A very dangerous situation that could have meant serious injury had there been people around on stage... just another reminder to NEVER stand under moving loads no matter how years it's been since you've seen one fall... This wasn't the only time something like this happened... I've even got pictures somewhere of essentially the same thing happening Dijon It was 13th 1975 at the Spokane Coliseum. It was 19th birthday as well! Mother actually wrote me a note to get out of school to go the show that was 100 north Spokane, WA. I was living Walla Walla, WA at the time. A little farm town with a population of only 25. I left the afternoon with two of best buddies a very beat up VW Bug that had dents all over it because it had been rolled. We got to Spokane the late afternoon and secured our crash pad with one of buddies friends who's girlfriend and he were complete Rundgren fanatics. I heard a lot of Rundgren before the show at their apartment. I did get them to play the first BOC album which the had we could all get the grove before the show. When we got to the show I found out
