According to the "Tor Echo", the support act for that gig was advertised beforehand as Duke Jupiter, yet that page says "Buxx"... does that ring any bells with you...?

Ralph,
The pic is definitely NOT Duke Jupiter. Pretty sure they canceled

OK, cheers - I posted a query on the entry for that gig on Hot Rails a while back asking if anyone knew if Duke Jupiter played or not because they'd cancelled the two previous nights, despite being the advertised openers... Blotto filled in for those two cancellations, so I had been wondering if they'd played Alfred also but apparently not... :-)
BTW: Are those pages from the Alfred yearbook...?

BTW: Are those pages from the Alfred yearbook...? Yes, This is my brother's Yearbook at Alfred State 1983 Colour yearbook... very posh!!  I've been finding yearbooks to be an enigmatic source for gig info - they usually seem to feature a small collection of photos from some of the gigs the college has hosted over the past year, but they don't seem to be big on the actual details... namely, the date or the full band lineup! Coincidentally, just last night, I came across a 1973 yearbook for Bethany College (WV) and spotted this pic:  So on the plus side, at least I now know that there's a Bethany College gig I need to add to the lists, but I have no idea which year/page to put it on - the 1973 or the 1974 one, nor does it indicate who opened... at least your Alfred one helpfully gives both bands on the bill, so thanks for posting those pics... and for the Buxx research!! |

I got married in that suit I'm wearing, the one pictured the "needle park" BOC publicity photo.
Can't specifically remember that Bethany college gig. Cobwebs on the brain. I vaguely remember a string of upstate NY gigs around the time we became BOC as/after the first LP was recorded.
Me playing the Vulcan guitar in Agent's post is much later in time.
