BOS2 "Don't Take Me Alive," despite the Oregon mispronunciation.

For the first several years after this came out, I thought he was singing "Crossed my old man back in Aragon." 

Ha! but is it "my old man" or "my own man"? I've always heard the latter.
"old man", fer sure.

BOS to the fuzzed guitar Dan intro.  That intro always hits a nerve, pleasantly.

Heartily agree with this.

Hah, Starsky and Hutch.  (Ok, ok, I had to Google "Zebra-3" -- c'mon, I was 5.)

Wow, I'd forgotten this song features both cowbell *and* talkbox. BOSFRA to Hair of the Dog, Nazareth. Are they still playing the casino-and-county-fair circuit?
Let's get right to it.

you're right, per their old, er, own website. One problem: "Don't Take me Alive" is from '76. Ooops.

True, well just imagine that she played "Throw Back the Little Ones" instead.

By jove, you're right. She shoulda gone with something from Katy Lied. Any World (That I'm Welcome To) would have been nice.
