BOC: Kiss My Axe (While I Drink My Beer)

[js3619 at ACMENET.NET]

It would be interesting if they introduced Kiss my axe into their sets. It
is a fun song! THe could could do all of their Kiss songs -- Kiss my axe,
Before the Kiss a Redacap and a Demon's Kiss (though the last one is a bit
too repetititve to my ears).  

Has anyone heard how Buck is playing since his accident in December?

Just had a thought: BOC could do a 7 disc best of package: one chosen by
each of the original members w/self-penned liner notes, like the "Python's
Best" DVD set they were peddling a few years ago.
