    So far this tour is Europe only.

    . Another great band being underserved by an utterly awful website. What are these guys thinking?

    Looks like early 2000s design - a look that has not aged well. You'd think at least one of their grandkids would tell them to get a new site. And make sure its RWD.

As I said, I think DP is done with America so BOC goes back to their grind.

    Some festivals outside of the U.S. so that's cool.

    Responsive Web Design - basically makes it so a webpage can be read and used on a tablet/cell phone. It's pretty much essential these days. Over 50% of the world accesses the Internet by cell phone. That number is only growing.

    Okay, I know all about that, since I build sites. I never saw the acronym, though, but suspected it had to do with that. We just call it responsive of mobile-friendly. It's also not secure, which is essential, since many browsers now notify people when they land on a non-secure site.

    In fact, if you don't have a responsive site, your search rankings will get penalized on mobile devices.

    They have been posting occasional updates on their facebook page. It is in the works, but no release date yet that I have seen.

    They have not said. Mostly they have just posted pictures of the band in the studio.

    Yup, Richie is a very very talented dude. The last time I saw BOC, Eric was sick and not there, so Richie took on an even bigger role as he was basically covering both his and Eric's parts. Along with guitar he is a good keyboard player and has a good voice too. Hard to believe he has been with the band for 17 years now.

    I read that UFO couldn't play last night, so BOC did two sets, three hours of music in Atlanta!

    Bass, too. The guy rips it up on just about everything. And he was singing Eric's parts that night, too? Dayum.
