For a band thats been around the better part of three decades Blue Oyster Cult certainly didnt play like old fogies when they took the stage in Chicago for a concert on June 21 2002. That memorable show has been preserved on A Long Days Night so titled because it took place during the summer solstice. For two hours guitarist-vocalist Buck Dharma and his bandmates regale a revved-up crowd with such Cult classics as "Burning for You" "Last Days of May" "Godzilla" and of course "Dont Fear the Reaper." Its initially off-putting to watch these clean-cut middle-aged men rip through the BOC songbook but their chops enthusiasm and hooks are still there so--like the Stones--Blue Oyster Cult could keep going until actual old age comes a-knockin.
