Incredible show!!!!
Boy George never seizes to AMAZE!! What a fabulous show he put on for us in Tampa! He spoke to the audience before EACH song. He told stories, not just pleasantries. He connected with his fans and thanked us several times. We sang along, danced, clapped and gave a standing ovation. Even from the last row in the last section (yes, against the wall in the nose bleeds), we could appreciate this awesome show. Boy George, you rock!!!

Loved Culture Club/Audience Was Blah
Culture Club never disappoints but, the audience as I have found to be the case at IP were like zombies with the exception of the GA people. I think that Culture Club deserved more respect by ways of the crowd needing to get out of their seats and dance and make some noise. Culture Club deserves respect and they also feed off of their fans.

amazing
boy george and culture club were absolutely amazing. he was in excellent voice and very animated and engaging with the audience. loved all the great "old songs" as well as the new songs they did. i have to say it exceeded my expectations in going to the concert. and the venue is a nice size venue. not too large, not too small

Boy George better than ever
This was perhaps one of the most fun concerts I’ve been to in my long life. The engagement with the crowd, the playfulness on stage, not to mention all the songs you love plus new ones that fit into the set like they had been there all along. I highly recommend catching Culture Club on this tour if you have the chance!

Still Crazy (in a good way) after all these years
What especially impressed me about Culture Club's performance in Biloxi was how playful and unassuming "Boy" George O'Dowd was. Continually engaging the audience with some humor aimed at himself made you feel he was just like you. The song list was a unique blend of their 80's smash hits, their new material, and even a couple of covers including Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love," and a rousing opening number version of David Bowie's "Let's Dance." The band seemed to have as much fun as the audience for the entire hour and 40 minutes. It was for sure a meeting of the "mutual admiration," society. Sure glad I went.

boy george and culture club
enjoyable journey back to the past, along with some new reggae sounds, and tributes to lost artist. the group covered david bowie, opening with let's dance and opened the encore with addicted to love. all the hits were performed, along with some new material. only wish the b-52's would have been on this part of the tour!

Not as good as last tour
Was super excited to see Culture Club coming back on tour. Saw them at Universal a couple years ago and it was such a blast. This concert was good but not as fun and lively. Had I seen this concert 2 years ago, I would not have wanted to see them again. Too much talking between songs and they played a lot of their more mellow songs which left less time for the fun dance songs. Not a fan of HoB.

CULTURE CLUB IN CONCERT:
Calling all karma chameleons: Culture Club is back on the road to promote their latest album Tribes, and fans across North America can relive the ‘80s as Boy George and company perform their classic new wave hits on tour. In concert Boy George remains as fierce a showman as ever, taking the stage with the same gender-bending makeup and outré fashion that made him a global ‘80s icon. Whether he’s bringing the drama on upbeat favorites like “I’ll Tumble 4 Ya” or melting hearts with his coy croon on “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me”, George always charms audiences with his soulful delivery, infectious dancing, and candid asides between songs. The band keeps pace beautifully, cranking out their signature brand of reggae-influenced new wave with an ease and funkiness that is sure to get fans grooving. Whether they’re performing solo or sharing the bill with fellow new wave icon Howard Jones, Culture Club always treat fans to a nostalgic and dance-worthy journey through some of the best sounds of the ‘80s.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Culture Club was formed in London in the early ‘80s by Boy George, an androgynous club kid who had previously sang with legendary new wave outfit Bow Wow Wow. Calling themselves Culture Club as a nod to their diverse cultural backgrounds, the band made their debut in 1982 with the album Kissing to be Clever. Though the album’s first two singles failed to make much of a mark, third single “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me” topped charts around the world, catapulting the band to international superstardom virtually overnight. Their 1983 sophomore album Colour by Numbers was an even bigger smash, blowing up charts around the globe with catchy hits like “Karma Chameleon” and earning the band a Grammy in 1984 for Best New Artist. Culture Club released two more albums in the mid-’80s to moderate success, but by 1986 Boy George’s struggles with addiction had pushed the band apart. They reunited in the late ‘90s and released the 1999 album Don’t Mind If I Do and toured for a stint, but George’s successful career as a DJ soon led to another hiatus. Following a few one-off shows in 2011, the band reunited in 2014 to record their sixth album Tribes -- a highly anticipated return that has fans dying to catch them on tour in support of the release.
