More Blue Oyster Cult, "ASTRONOMY".. My first concert in 1973 at age 16.. friends and I fell in love with this band.. more "DOMINANCE AND SUBMISSION", " CITY ON FLAME", "BABY ICE DOG", "HOT RAILS TO HELL", "SEVEN SCREAMING DIZBUSTERS" "THEN CAME THE LAST DAYS OF MAY"... JUST THE TIP OF THE JOURNEY..
WE WENT TO SEE THEM IN OTTAWA, EXPECTING TO SEE A LAZER SHOW…. TWO THIRDS THROUGH THE SHOW NO LAZERS, BUT WE WERE SO RAPPED UP IN THE MUSIC WE FORGOT ABOUT THE LAZERS. THEN JUST WHEN HE SINGS ASTRONOMY…. HE POINTS A RED LAZER AT A SUSPENDED MIRROR BALL N BLEW US AWAY..!!! BEEN A FAN OF THIERS FROM DAY ONE … GREAT REACTIONS.. ROCK ON MAN 👊🖖
I could be wrong, but I believe you to be the only reactor to do the Cult's quintessential piece, "Astronomy", both studio and live. Most excellent, sir. Been a Cult fan since 1973, and though this live version is good, for me, nothing matches the studio version for the ultimate headphones experience. Eric's pipes were at their peak in the early to mid 70s, IMO. And unfortunately, what you can't experience is their laser light show, which Astronomy really highlighted. At least until OSHA got a hold of them...
8 minutes, 20 seconds. The same amount of time that it takes light to leave the surface of the sun and arrive at the surface of the earth. Coincidence? Eye think knot.

Some say "Free Bird!" I say "Astronomy!"
Sorry, no comparison.
You're right Freebird doesn't even come close to comparing with astronomy
A crown jewel in their recorded output. Thanks for reviewing this, John. Oh, and yes, you are correct, it was Eric Bloom with the lead vocal.
Memories 🤯🤯🤯🎸🎸🎸🎸 this show was next level

Check outVeteran of Psychic Wars on the ETL album...great solo by Buck Dharma as well!...Dominance and Submissioon is killer too!
IMHO, the BEST version of Astronomy. Check out ETI from same album.
excellent choice
the 4 winds bar was a real place
As my dad used to always tell me, "BOC RULES"
Saw BOC in 81..awesome show!
Love when you do BOC!!!!
Nexus of the crisis and the origin of stone. That's what I'm talking bout.
I didn't know Jeff Goldbloom likes Eric Bloom!?
