Disrespectful both to the Bouchards and the new rhythm section.
Undeniably, the guys look much cooler in the old photos, 'cause they
were younger, of course, and also due to a much nicer looking set.
It wouldn't do to show BOC in the crowded confines of a beer hall, I
guess.  Besides, it would cost MONEY to have new pictures shot, while
the old stock pics are free.  Calling mr. Schenk...
