you listen to your typical classic rock station without hearing the Oyster Boys? Not very long on my local station anyway. I do wish they wold play a little more variety of their stuff though. Seems like I hear Burnin' For You the most.

BOC is the band I have seen the most. Six times I believe.

Back in the early to mid 70s, they'd come through to a summertime concert series every summer.
My dad was tangentially involved as they needed his fraternal organization's partnership to get the city owned venue.
So, we had backstage passes every week. It was always a 3 band show, about an hour each.
BOC were so pleasant and welcoming to 4 HS (later college) kids. All the guys were good dudes!
I saw them also on the tour when Reaper was a big hit. So, I've seen them around 6 times, too!
