  • This is my reaction to The Cult live 2024 in Prague. DO they still rock? In this concert review, I dive into their live performance, the energy of the band, and how they stack up against their legendary past. Does The Cult still have the magic live on stage? Watch to find out!
    This concert took place in Prague/Praha in the Czech Republic in July 2024 and was part of The Cult's 8424 European tour 2024.
    Here is an amazing box set with Sonic Temple, check it out on my Amazon Affiliate link amzn.to/3WOfomY
    And here is the last album "Under The Midnight Sun" amzn.to/4d5xYfP
    From the powerful guitar riffs of Billy Duffy to the iconic vocals of Ian Astbury, this concert was a nostalgic journey. But did they meet expectations? I'll discuss the setlist, crowd interaction, and the overall atmosphere. Plus, I'll touch on the band’s history, their influence on rock music, and much more.
    The Cult are an English rock band formed in Bradford in 1983

      @@metalandrockzone I've seen the Cult 3 times in the 90's. First was in support of Ceremony at the Pacific Coliseum in Vacouver. Told my parents we were going to a motorcycle show at another stadium. It was great. Then the at a smaller arena in Vancouver but got close and Ian asked for smokes and he caught my pack lol ( terrible habit kids) which was awesome at 19-20 yrs old. Lastly at a free show downtown for some charity but was intimate and different. Love this bad. Great writing and vocals and well, Billy is a legend period!

      @@deanb4799 Cool, what did you smoke back then? I found half a pack of Marlboro when I was 7 or 8 so that was my first but then became a Camel man later. We rarely got any bands to Iceland back in the day, my first concert was Whitesnake with Slaughter in 1990 two nights in a row, I was wasted in cowboy boots and a horrible leather jacket but I thought I was the coolest guy in town!

      I saw them for Sonic Temple and Ceremony in Vancouver too. The ST show was far more engaged and energetic, the entire sold out place was on their feet the whole time.
      I gotta say, Ian's vocals have never been perfect live, but this footage I'm seeing from EU in 2024 is leagues better than other, older concert footage out there. Something's changed and it feels like a huge improvement recently.

      Was lucky enough to catch them several times, including our first tour of America and they kicked ass I think about eight times from New York to Florida and they still have it. Somebody threw a drink at him. I was in the front row standing up and he could’ve went ballistic, but he was cool. He actually helped him get a little bit more into the show after he got the guy kicked out. I even caught him when I was working on a show with the doors and I’m sitting backstage with him. I asked him again to hear any cold stuff tonight. He goes to the home unfortunately not.

      Just saw them play at Ceasars in windsor...turns out the Cult are total Satan worshippers. Yup. So bad we had to walk out. And I grew up listening to the Love album. I was very excited to go and ultimately bumbed out when they came out with the song "lucifer". Check out the lyrics and you tell me you can pay good money to go see that. Then they doubled down dedicating firewomen to Satan. In this light they then played the rain and now I know it's not about the rain at all and about a sexual act. Extremely disappointed.

    I'm 52 and my favorite album of all time is The Cult - Love from 1985. I first heard it in 1987 and was permanently hooked on it. My favorite song from Love is "Hollow Man."
    I saw The Cult live in 2001 on the Beyond Good And Evil tour at the House Of Blues in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and it was amazing. They played an incredible set of songs everyone knew and Loved and I got to meet Ian after the show outside behind the venue. He was standing outside the bands' tour bus signing autographs. He was really nice and in a very happy mood and he signed a dollar bill for me! I handed him the one dollar bill and asked him to sign it and he smiled and jokingly said "OH, but I only sign twenties" so I replied "But you're number one with me Ian!" and he laughed and happily signed it for me. It was a great experience and I let him know that Love is my favorite album of all time!

Then I saw them in 1989 opening for Metallica on the And Justice for All tour at Deer Creek Music Center in Noblesville. Indiana. I saw them again in 1992 on the Ceremony tour in Phoenix, Arizona at Desert Sky Pavilion. Lenny Kravitz opened the show. The last time was in 2001. The Cult opened for Aerosmith on their Just Push Play tour at Assembly Hall in Champaign, Illinois. All were great. I would love to see them a fifth time. Such a great band.

    Wow, I last saw The Cult on August 3rd, 1987 as they were supporting Billy Idol . Have to say, both acts were damn good. Glad to see they are still giving it their all. Odd that a band never seems to keep its drummer though.

    Attended their show last night in Tilburg, the second time I saw them live. This is my all time favorite rockband, but last night I didn’t feel their energy whatsoever. First time I saw them live was at Pinkpop 1992, the famous show where they closed the festival, but didn’t want to leave the stage. They ended up jamming with Pearl Jam. Last night Ian barely sang his lyrics… But I still love these guys.
