Ian Anderson says of the album, “As we baby-boomers look back on our own lives, we must often feel an occasional ‘what-if’ moment. Might we, like Gerald, have become instead preacher, soldier, down-and-out, shopkeeper or finance tycoon?” Adding, “And those of more tender years – the social media and internet generation – may choose to ponder well the myriad of chance possibilities ahead of them at every turn…..”

We’re giving away a copy of the album.  Head on over to Type 3 Media’s Facebook page, the first person to complete this line by commenting on the giveaway post wins!

While the Steve Miller Band will be playing the band’s classic rock anthems “Fly Like an Eagle,” “The Joker,” “Rock ‘n Me,” “Take the Money and Run,” and “Abracadabra” on tour, Miller will also perform a number of tracks from BINGO! that echo his early days on the Chicago Blues scene.
