I have been looking to get that oakland set without having to pay as much for postage as for the record. No luck yet.

Hey!

Bo came out here a few times from 80's inta 90's ....
Always played a few shows each he was in Melbourne...

Was in Houndogs Bop Shop one day when these young muso's
from Sydney came into Deny's shop asking for some Bo records...

Asked why the interest in Bo and they laughingly told
us they were his backing band while he toured Australia and
they had to learn some of his stuff real quick before first show ... hhhhaaaa

First caught him at bar on Toorak Rd South Melbourne ....
Always a small crowd and he was just inches from audience...

After gigs he would be there packing up his own gear and
you could just talk freely with him ... I remember one time
asking him could he play Pills at the next nights show but he
laughed and said "I'd love ta play Pills for ya but these guys backing me just aint up to it"

Couple of years later he returned to Aussie Land and caught him
at Eureka Hotel in Geelong .... same thing small room .. low stage ... small crowd
but mid-way thru this really fat chick vomited over the stage and
some of Bo's leads..pedals etc ....Bo wasn't very happy so he stopped the
show told her to go to the rest room...Then he took a break while sound
crew cleaned up the mess....

When Bo finally returned he was frantic..Face cheeks ablown out
and a-wobblin'..Words-a stutterin'....Guitar a-rattlin'....Legs a-shakin'....place went crazy...!!!...

Same deal again ... got to talk to him after show

I sure hope we all get a chance to see this on the big screen! Covid, be gone now.

Hopefully…. Mind you, I’m so damn bored I’d go to a Shadow Puppet Festival at this point.

Snail racing, also very exciting...

There was an "emotional rescue" on the local news tonite.

He was so close to Spector he started to resemble him.
