Did any of the Boomchild stuff get played on shows at all?
NO. He's NOT Steve F'ing Perry. But he's Arnel F'ing Pineda and I'm okay with that.

Don't think so bry. Little promotion on MCA for DDY and Atlantic for TS on their third solo albums. Makes you wonder why those record companies even signed them...

They did give Dennis a huge amount of money to make the Boomchild video. Dennis has commented how the post production of that video stalled the release of the album for a long time.

Is that J.J. Jackson doing the announcing there? Sure sounds like him.

Boomchild and Harry's Hands were such brilliant tunes. Totally STYX sounding.

Totally agree. I'd argue that the third solo effort from both DDY and TS were, at the time, their best. If they had gotten soem decent promotion, I bet they would have been more successful. Of course, both would be eclipsed by Ocean and 100 Years respectively.
