Hey now, that would be a great concert opening. Why not have Eric, Buck and
Allen come out in long robes kinda like Spinal Tap's "Stonehenge" and tell
the story of "when Guitars walked the earth as Gods". Make it full of doom
and gloom about how Disco nearly wiped out every last acolyte of Rock and
Roll and how the new and improved, Industrial strength Gods of Vengeance
are back to mop up the floor with us all and cause excessive ear bleeding
for letting the lords of Disco walk amongst us. Erics voice could THUNDER:
"WE ARE B! O! C! and our Guitars bleed LEAD!!!!! A one-a and a two-a..."
Ba WOMP! WOMP! Weee deeeeee, wee dee deee DEEEEEEEEEEE!

Actually I'm just farting around. I really like "black & Silver"

But all kidding aside, I think the title "Ear Damage" is too good a Rock &
Roll Title to throw away. Hell, it's generic enough to be used on just
about any heavy tune. Anyone else out there got any nifty titles that
ALMOST made it as BOC song titles? And why is Teen Archer called teen
Archer anyway?
