Happy Monday- I hope everyone survived the storm. We have some fence damage, nothing major.
Here is a NICE sounding show from Doug’s collection. They played in a multipurpose meeting room at this hotel. The odd thing to me was that the local newspaper ran some advance press on the show, giving away the secret that this is really BOC playing the show:
“Blue Oyster Cult, the rock’n’roll cabal which started out known as Soft White Underbelly, stops in Santa Rosa on Tuesday at El Rancho Tropicana Convention Center – but the group has resurrected its old name, Soft White Underbelly and is touring under that name, Southern California Columbia recording company officials confirmed this week.”
What kind of secret show is one that announces who is really playing, in the paper, a few days ahead of the show? Odd. Glad Doug got in because this sounds fantastic.
Ticket image, press article, and info about the show from the great BOC fan site “hotrails”.
