Note: The date is an interesting coincidence, but I don't think that the picture is current, since this stop is not listed on Blue Oyster Cult's current tour schedule. Title: Re: Yo!

Nope, just some down and dirty gambling...well, and a bit of drooling over Game King and S2000 glass. ;) Jason Title: Re: Yo! From Jackpot, Nevada! Post by: StatFreak on April 03, 2011, 01:56:23 AM Okay, I have to ask. What are you doing in such a backwater location at the border of NV and ID? I'm assuming that you were in Idaho and drove to the nearest Nevada location to do some gambling, but there's not much in that part of ID either. Were you in Twin Falls or ...? :128-

You haven't missed anything. You mean it's not "Reno North"? :129- :30- :96- :208- :208- :208- That was part of the reason I posted the picture. B.O.C. must be pretty hard up to be playing gigs like that. :47- I guess they're "fearing the reaper" more than they used to. |
