I wondered what your take on Cult would be... they are definitely not in your usual milieu, but it's hard to deny liking any band that has such apparent integrity.

I mean, when the backline retired (Albert and Joe Bouchard on bass and drums), their SONS played with the band for like a decade.

And the guys in those roles now? Been playing with the band since like 2002.

BOC has been doing this shit a LONG time.

Side note: Last time I saw them was at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma. Holy shit it was fantastic. The room sounds AMAZING. The sound system was PERFECT: loud and detailed and precise and ... you could still talk over the music to the person standing next to you. And the band was as tight as ever. I saw them play the Kingdome in 1982, for fucks sake...

These guys just get on stage - ANY stage - and put on a great rock-n-roll show. City's On Flame, with Rock-n-Roll. Absofuckinglutely.
