Natalie and I went to see Blue Oyster Cult today at the Rockville Music Festival. The weather was iffy but we decided to go anyway. I'm glad we did. We got there a little after 4:00, right before BOC came on. We ended up getting pretty close to the stage and the band was great. My only complaint was the lack of decent beer. This is a partial set list:
- The Red & The Black
- Od'ed On Life
- Shooting Shark
- Career Of Evil
- Don't Fear The Reaper
- This Ain't The Summer Of Love
- Godzilla
- Cities On Flame
- The Vigil
- Burnin For You
- Hot Rails To Hell
After the show, we ate at the Hard Times Cafe. Although the place was nuts, the food was great. I had the Steak special and Natalie got Texas-style chili. We sat at the bar and they cooked the food right there. In fact, they didn't have a bartender, the cooks waited on us. One of the guys working there let me have a poster for the festival. We picked up some Chinese food from a place next door to take home for the kids. We thought it would be a big treat for them, but Tom had picked up some burgers from McDonald's on his way home from Ridge. Oh well.
