Blue Oyster Cult Tickets

The amazing Blue Oyster Cult is always a great live show! They've been rockin' it for 53 years and still sound great! Catch 'em while you still can...you won't be disappointed!

Brown County Indiana seems like an unlikely place for a legendary band to play but that's exactly where Blue Oyster Cult was on Friday, September 26th. While those assembled at the Brown County Music Center may have not been the tens of thousands the band experienced in its heyday, they made up for lack of numbers with enthusiasm. The band itself showed no signs of being in its fifth decade and immediately set to the task at hand, opening with the Mirrors cut, "Dr. Music."Long time members Buck Dharma and Eric Bloom received the largest ovations and justifiably so as both lorded over the stage and Dharma, as is his want, turned in some great guitar licks and solos throughout the 90-minutes. He also provided the vocals for the band's best known songs, "Don't Fear The Reaper,""Burning For You,"and "Dancing in the Ruins."Bloom in his trademark sunglasses alternated between guitar, keyboards and even percussion, providing vocals for a myriad of songs, including "E.T.I."Seemingly every album of the band's storied career save for Cultösaurus Erectus, where "Black Blade,"or "The Marshall Plan"would've been welcome additions, but those are minor quibbles. Richie Castellano provided a perfect foil for Dharma playing a number of notable solos while also playing keyboards with long-time bassist Danny Miranda providing some good bottom end with drummer Jules Radino in getting the sound the band is associated with. A highlight occurred near the end of the evening when the band had seemingly finished for the evening, the last notes of "Don't Fear the Reaper,"still ringing through the hall when B.O.C. reassembled and went into a favorite of mine and of many others in the audience, "Cities on Flame With Rock and Roll."At every pause, the crowed echoed its approval and the band seemed re-fortified as it played this '70's anthem with a new energy. As we made our exits, I couldn't be the only one knowing I'd witnessed a great show and hoped its not the last time the band comes through this area.

The venue was actually very nice. It was my first visit and I believe there wasn't a bad seat in the house.

Great show. Excellent venue. If you missed these "legends", shame on you. Buck Dharma is amazing. Guitar work is stellar as always.

There are so many older bands still touring. While a few are mailing it in, BOC seems to be getting better with age. The guitar work and solos were exceptional. Buck’s vocals echo their 70’s sound. Allen Lanier’s keyboards and guitar are first class. Eric Bloom was also very good as was the rhythm section. Of course one never gets to hear all the great songs but it was an outstanding performance. The venue is also easy access and no bad seats.

To be truthful I went with low expectations as I do for most bands from the 60’s-70’s as they age. Shame on me as I was blown away. Buck Dharma sounds better than ever-one of the most under-rated rock guitarists. Richie Castalano’s influence is a revelation also. Shooting Shark, Don’t fear the Reaper,etc., blew me away. Dont miss this epic band.

Started 30 minutes late. Sound problems. I thought that's what sound checks were for. BOC Just going thru the motions. Not Tight. Time to call it a career. Not Good

The seats even though they were high up had a good view of the stage. Great venue.

This was the second time I had seen Blue Oyster Cult. The first time was over 40 years ago and while they were good then, they were exceptional this time in Tampa. Nothing flashy, but a solid rock and roll performance. Band sounds tremendous. I would definitely see them again if they come around.

We had a great view, our seats were comfortable. We did have earplugs because even in the back row we were hit with 111 db. The band played a nice mix of their big hits and the rest of their catalog from what I could see. My husband, not I, is the BOC fan. Three of the songs I felt I hadn't enjoyed before I really liked. I would definitely go to this room/see the band again. Only downside was the smoke downstairs. Next time I'm bringing my inhaler

Great band, great sound and everyone was on their feet. Such an awesome show!

Not a bad seat in the house. BOC was still jamming. Left out a few songs that I would have like to hear. But after that many albums, they can't play them all.

Great time's did not think it would be like it was when you start enjoy you enjoy glad I was there

Seeing Blue Oyster Cult perform at the Hard Rock Casino Resort on July 3, 2025 was just ok, the group played their hits songs, but the groups vocals were below average. May have been the sound system, had hard time clarifying their song lyrics. Also, their stage had zero / no backdrops or anything, just the 5 band members standing the playing.

Show started off VERY slow; sounds was not good and could not really hear the vocals in the balcony. Finally cleared up on "Burnin' for You; classic and great. Buck Dharma is a LEGEND - he will be amazing when he is 150 years old, just fantastic. Their better-known classic songs came off great - Godzilla was amazing as always, Don't Fear the Reaper is one of the greatest rock songs ever. Again, the sound was not great and they put NO MONEY into any theatrics or anything to make the show visually better - really what happened to the awesome lazar show during Godzilla? Use some technology to blow up the performance, newer members were solid, Ritchie Castellano was GREAT, bass player held his own, the drummer was ok but seemed to be just going through the motions....the drum set looked like a backup that your kids would practice on. Summary - great nostalgic band Buck is a rock legend Eric Bloom is ok but really - have some pride in your show spend the money and PUT ON A SHOW. Average as best. AND FIX THE SOUND - really not good (after close to 200 concerts you can tell the difference. Still love your work and will always be a fan, but will not see them again.

The band sounded really excellent. The musicianship was wonderful. Eric‘s voice isn’t what it used to be, but Buck did a lot of the singing and did quite well. Then again, whose voice is the same as it was at Eric‘s age.

Show was good. Band’s getting old but can still pack a punch.

This is my first time seeing blue oyster called even though I’ve been a fan over 40+ years this was like on my bucket list and they did not disappoint. It’s amazing still 70s plus these guys are still playing just like when you were younger, buck Dharma is one of the most criminally underrated guitarists it should be on every best guitarist list. And Ritchie Castellano was on fire. What a great addition to the band I didn’t realize he’s been there since 2004?

Fantastic outstanding performance incredible. Rockn out amazing performances

Blue Oyster Cult was a disappointment. At this point in their career they should be playing songs from their past that got them noticed. Zebra played entirely too long. The Nesheiwat Center in Poughkeepsie has the worst beer selection of any concert venue I’ve ever been to.
