Normally when I write a song, the hook line in the chorus becomes my title. That is not the case with "Rifle Range Song". As a matter of fact the title appears nowhere in the lyric. The following story tells why it's called "Rifle Range Song": Back in the 60's when I joined Uther Pendragon we used to practice in, you guessed it, a rifle range. One of the band members had access to it and opened it up for us during non business hours. Lead guitarist, Bruce Marelich (also lead guitarist in BAD DADDY) worked a swing shift at Litton Industries. He would get off work about 11 Pm. We'd pack the band equipment in the back of his Nash Rambler, and head on the down to the rifle range. We'd set up and start playing around midnight and wouldn't stop until the sun came up. We would, as the song says, ". . . keep playing until we drop."
