They were going to play more songs, but had to stop because of curfew.

 

Wow dude that's an amazing setlist! I wish I had been there so bad!!!

 

I am jealous, must have been fantastic.

 

****, I'd love to hear Career of Evil alone. That's my favorite BOC tune, or at least in the top 5.

nice!

were there any video cameras filming?

 

Hell of a setlist.

 

I am envious.....great set list!

 

I was supposed to goto a special show by them at a 200 seat capacity room that you were only able to win your way into last Tuesday, but Hurricane Sandy put a damper on that one. What a shame. It would have been amazing.

 

What a cool moment in time. It's great they were all still alive to do this. "OD'd On Life Itself" still my favorite BÖC tune. I'm glad they played it. Thanks for posting.

Career Of Evil

That is great!

 

I did not see any video cameras filming. The show seemed too loose and spontaneous if they were planning to release a DVD.

 

I would have loved to have seen Harvester of Eyes done acoustically. And the original lineup set list looks like heaven indeed!

Harvester Of Eyes

Great set list, but how did they sound? I would have loved to have been there!

 

Wow, the Bouchard Brothers played with them again - how cool!

 

The current lineup also sounded excellent!
Shooting Shark had Bruce Kapler from The David Letterman Show playing saxophone. I don't know if they have ever used a sax live.
I Love The Night had a couple of extra verses I had never heard before. Don't know if this was ever released.

 

Awesome!

 

This is deeply frustrating ... just got back from my first trip to the US but no way I could make the gig.

Soooo disappointed but just happy others got to enjoy it.

Hard to believe they wouldn't film this one off event ...

I don't think this link has been posted yet. It is a great tune.

 

Interviewed Eric Bloom on my podcast a month or so ago and he said they were not filming show due to it being a union venue. The costs to film there would have been too high. Damn shame, I'd love to see them do this in a venue where they could properly film and release it.

 

Thanks for the report Taki!
