I love bang a drum it's a great song, kinda like never say die and billy get your guns, they aren't really serious songs but they're great fun songs. Great to see jon doing all 3 live

Of all the songs played, Bang a Drum is the one that I hate I missed seeing in person. I love the song and I think Jon did a great job with the live version. It would be great if it showed up down the road at more events.

Agreed,not a big fan of the song, at all.

haha now that it has been played, it's going to be me pestering Obie as many times as possible a day for them to practice then play the song when they come to Calgary, and it's gunna be me holding up the "Play Bang A Drum" sign. .... All hope was lost for me.... I'm so freakin' glad they played it.

Really good song on an awesome album Seriously, I don't see what's NOT to like about songs like the title track, Santa Fe, Justice In The Barrel, Blood Money and Dyin' Ain't Much Of A Livin'.

A great song from a great album. I think BOG is a great example of Jons songwriting, even though the subject matter has been defined by the script. Or possibly because of that.

Anyway, it has Jon's best vocals to date and Jeff Beck and Kenny Aronoff play great.

Blaze Of Glory and Destination Anywhere are two fantastic albums.

Blaze Of Glory over-rated? Not in my opinion.
