Default Bang A Drum

Okay, I am fairly sure the playing of this song at the Starland Feb 23rd show was the first ever. And I have never heard anyone talk about it. As it is my screen name, I obviously love the song and was crushed when I couldn't find anything live on youtube when I first searched for it, and I couldn't find it on any setlist of Jon Bon Jovi's solo tours. So if this is not the first time, it is probably a very limited played song. Anyway.... like it? hate it? or is it just there..... I'd say the best song on Young Guns along with Santa Fe......

Coming from you, I take that as a compliment

Ok album? Wow... It's a great album.

I like it. I prefer a few others from Blaze but it's good.

Yeah, just 'ok'. I appreciate that it's essentially a soundtrack so serves a different purpose to the other albums, but i've just never been able to get into it.

I think it's a great song and album. I listen to it all the time. I wish they'd play more of it at concerts.

I agree with this post.

Blaze Of Glory, although has a couple of amazing songs, is incredibly overated as a whole album and Bang A Drum is one of the worst songs placed in it.
