The Cult-Orpheum Theatre 4/18/08


I'm glad I got another chance to see The Cult,as it had been nearly twenty years since my last go-round with Ian,Billy and whomever else is in the band at the time.An all-girl band,The Cliks,opened the show and duly impressed both my wife and I.After an unusually long set-up between groups,The Cult took the stage about an hour after the Cliks wrapped up.The band were sharp and played alot of new songs,which seemed to catch much of the thritysomething and fortyplus crowd off guard.Soon Ian was berating(in quite an a.s.s.hole-ish manner,I might add)the audience.They'd play a song,stop so Ian could pontificate for a few minutes,then launch into another tune;Billy got into the speech/sermon mode as well-asking us when the f*** we were gonna wake up!I think the band fail to realize who their audience is-not a bunch of boozed up teens and early twenties-we've all gotten a little older and the group seems to be a bit out of touch.In ending ,musically it was a very good show but the behavior of Ian and Billy will make me think twice before I shell out fifty bucks to get told what a bore I am! emoticon CHEERS
