In April 1982, Bold As Brass was released, which resulted in some more airplay for Bodine. The following stream is a part of KRO's Stampij, where Alfred Lagarde was guest host. How can someone be a guest and a host at the same time? Alfred Lagarde did it!

The interview includes all band members Rheno, Axel, Gerard, Armand and Arjen Lucassen.

In January 1984, Bodine played live at Countdown Café. This show was hosted by Annette van Trigt, Metal Mike van Rijswijk, Alfred Lagarde and Kees Baars. Preceding the concert, Alfred Lagarde had an interview with Gerard Haitsma.
