Blue Oyster Cult At The Rockville Music Festival


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.
